AI-Driven Scheduling Solution for Greater Resilience and Profitability
The Scheduler is designed to streamline both job shop scheduling and labor scheduling through an easy-to-use digital interface powered by real-time data and specialized AI-driven automation. This tool not only optimizes your scheduling processes but also provides real-time reports on schedule adherence, OTIF, maintenance performance, and more. Insights derived from these reports help you to identify bottlenecks and evaluate the success of scheduling and its execution.
Our Scheduler’s cutting-edge AI capabilities find near-optimal job orchestration combinations for various business needs, including cost minimization, changeover minimization, just-in-time scheduling, and more, all at the click of a button. Thus, Scheduler addresses the mathematical, NP-hard optimization problem faced by manufacturers with exceptional computational power.
Top Use Cases of Scheduler
- Generate Automated Just-in-Time Schedules: AI models generate schedules that precisely match delivery times by considering due dates and the shelf-life priority of products. This minimizes inventory holdings and ensures the fresh quality of your products.
- AI-Driven Changeover Minimization: By scheduling products with similar raw materials and procedures, algorithms minimize line cleaning and setup time, increasing efficiency.
- Assign Optimum Number of Workers to Each Line: Scheduler shows whether there are excessive or insufficient workers assigned to each line, helping you balance labor allocation.
- Real-Time Reporting: Gain real-time insights into schedule adherence, OTIF, and maintenance performance to stay on top of your operations.
- Data-Driven Preventive Maintenance: By monitoring maintenance metrics such as mean time to failure, mean time between failures, and mean time to repair, you can proactively schedule maintenance activities to prevent unplanned downtime.
Key Features of Scheduler
- AI-Driven Automation: Automate complex scheduling tasks for different business needs with a click, reducing the potential for human error and enhancing efficiency.
- Real-Time Data Utilization: Access up-to-the-minute information to make informed scheduling decisions.
- Easy to Use Digital Interface: Seamlessly adjust your schedules according to real-time data with drag-and-drop functionality, Gantt charts, and color-coded representation that highlights bottlenecks.
Benefits of Scheduler
- Reduce Costs: With near-optimal job shop and labor scheduling, you can reduce production costs by more than 20%.
- Enhanced Production: Scheduler increases capacity utilization by up to 50% without any capital investment and significantly improves your throughput.
- Improved Operational Efficiency: By comparing actual and planned durations for line cleaning, machine setup, and runtime activities, identify factors that prevent you from executing schedules as planned.
- Increased OTIF Delivery: Deliver products on time and in full subject to priority of your customers, improve client satisfaction and minimize OTIF penalties.
- Decreased Unplanned Downtime: Tracking maintenance activities allows you to improve total productive maintenance and minimize unwanted equipment failures.
