What is Gears?

A Feature-based Product Line Engineering (PLE) Factory operates much like a conventional manufacturing plant, yet its emphasis is on digital resources instead of physical goods. In establishing this factory, your organization curates an extensive "superset" supply chain comprising digital assets that are available for use across a broad spectrum of products. These digital assets encompass every feature option in the product portfolio. Each product's chosen features are specified in the Bill-of-Features, after which a product asset instance is created with the help of the Gears product configurator. The PLE Factory, powered by Gears, evolves into an automated system that efficiently assembles and configures the shared digital assets based on the selected features for each variant, all with the simple press of a button. By leveraging BigLever’s Gears, your organization gains access to a cohesive set of PLE principles and frameworks, enhancing the effectiveness of your tools and assets, which ultimately streamlines engineering workflows throughout the complete product lifecycle. This seamless integration not only boosts operational efficiency but also encourages greater innovation in product development, paving the way for a more agile and responsive market approach.

What is Asprova?

Asprova APS is recognized as the leading solution in Japan for overcoming scheduling obstacles. By developing schedules that are both realistic and practical, it enhances factory productivity significantly. This innovative planning system addresses scheduling issues, improves bottleneck management, and enables just-in-time production. Our complimentary presentations provide essential insights and techniques to optimize your production scheduling and planning efforts. Achieving effective synchronization among all operations depends on meticulous planning, which includes assigning manufacturing orders in the correct sequence to the right resources. Ideally, the final assembly line should proficiently handle a wide variety of products according to their designated delivery order. Furthermore, all related processes, such as subassemblies and the mechanical production line, should function in a coordinated sequence that aligns with the final assembly schedule. By adopting this comprehensive approach, every facet of production can operate in unison, resulting in enhanced efficiency and productivity. Ultimately, this integrated method not only streamlines operations but also supports a culture of continuous improvement within the manufacturing environment.
