Production Planning and Control
The success of a typical production process is primarily determined by three playing factors: lower production cost, optimum utilization of resources and tight quality checks. A smooth interplay between all the three factors can only be achieved with a well-structured platform. WorksLogic production planning and control module is devised to give you complete control of your production process, keeping your manufacturing set up fully augmented. Whether you are a single item manufacturing company or do batch or mass production either one time or continuous or in any combination, WorksLogic can unify your production process to the best result.
Planning Dashboard
To tightly control your production procedure, it is important that you get one unified view to track their entire production process from start to end. Planning dashboard gives you a visual overview of the whole process as planned and let’s you focus on areas that need your attention, saving you time and effort.
- Birds eye view of entire production load like pending orders / parts, orders-dispatched/ready to dispatch/partially dispatched
- Expected delivery dates with live part-wise status
- Colour codes to denote production status
Planning & Scheduling
Any efficient planning and scheduling system should help you create and track your plant schedule, taking into account your production priorities. WorksLogic comes with multiple features that facilitates
- End-to-end planning and management from generated enquiry to dispatch.
- Full production history (from cradle to grave) for individual parts, lots, batches and assemblies
- Create and update day wise schedule and plan
- Allows both forward and backward planning
- Define production shifts and machine capacity
- Real time work in process (WIP) reports
- Automatic part sequencing and scheduling on machine based on cycle time and machine capacity & part type
Resource Planning
Resource planning is critical part of any production process. A good resource planning system should help you track the inefficiencies or wastages in raw material or manpower. WorksLogic helps you with
- Material requirement planning.
- Auto indenting and PO generation
- Operator scheduling and planning
- Plan material requirement factoring current inventory and MOQ
Rejections and Reworks
Quality has a major impact on any production process. A good production plan should always factor in quality otherwise it can completely derail the plan. It should allow you to track quality control at all levels, prevent reworks, ensure that customer end rejections are avoided and set accountability on any such occurrences.
- Monitor rejected and reworked materials
- Ability to factor in quality issues such as rework, in-house rejection, customer end rejection in production scheduling.
- Set accountability in case of reworks, in-house or customer end rejections.
Delivery and Downtimes
Businesses work in a dynamic environment. Planned or unplanned downtimes, emergency orders, accidents can heavily impact production plan. Good software must be able to provide realistic information for such occurrences and help in rescheduling the plan so that impact can be minimized.
- Helps you revise plan in case of emergency orders
- Dynamic calculation of estimated delivery date based upon priority, load and actual work
- Ability to factor in planned downtime, unplanned downtime and reworks
Bill of Material Management
Bill of material is the most important constituent in manufacturing any product from start to end. Systematic storage of BOM data for easy retrieval makes production hassle free and cuts down on quality errors. Our BOM management module helps you store data in an organized format allowing you to manage different versions. WorksLogic helps create and manage
- Standard bill of materials management
- Project bill of materials management
- Multi-level bill of material management
- Connect drawings & part pictures to BOM for easy instructions and execution
