Production Planning: Run your factory efficiently
We bring in our deep understanding of the supply chain and industry best practices to take your company from where it is now, to where it wants to be. Our process combines research, analysis and results-driven recommendations for all areas of the supply chain planning process.

Pull Materials + Allocate Capacities + Schedule Resources = Meet Demand On-Time


Improve the efficiency of your manufacturing operations
Maximize Production Capabilities
A comprehensive range of supply chain services
Inputs & Considerations
- Production lines/machines … types, capabilities, capacity per shift/day, lead times, setup times, etc.
- Order details … production orders by SKU & due date, order priority
- Material availability … BOM representation, on-hand and in-transit materials
- Costs/penalties … cost of mfg, penalty for missing due dates, sequence dependent setups, etc.
- Business rules … available shifts, sequencing rules, alternate resources, etc.
Solution Output
- Production Plans … day/shift level capacity & material constrained plan; order fulfilment plan
- Resource Plans … use of alternate/simultaneous resources, overtime capacity, pre-builds, etc.
- Production Schedules … detailed scheduling of production orders on resources
- Digital Kanbans … represent movement & storage of material and trigger production operations
- Multiple Objectives … meeting due dates, minimizing costs, maximizing utilization, etc.
Demand-Supply optimization at Factories
Designing the future of your supply chain
Benefits
