APS – An interactive, multi-constraint, finite capacity production scheduling system for manufacturers
Dynamic market conditions and volatility in the supply chain are challenging the established rules of production, planning and control.
A lean approach, coupled with Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS), is fast emerging as a way to harness these dynamic conditions and achieve operational excellence in discrete manufacturing industries.
In the first webinar our panel of experts discusses and shares practical insights on:
- The relevance of Value Stream mapping
- How APS enhances lean efficiency
- The future of lean manufacturing
The second webinar focuses on “Enhancing operation excellence with Advanced Planning and Scheduling”.
It provides our audience with practical tips on using APS as a solution to some of the modern-day planning and scheduling challenges. The agenda for the second webinar is:
- APS vs. ERP scheduling
- Multi-constraint finite capacity scheduling
- Live demonstration of APS
