What is just plan it?

Just Plan It specializes in production scheduling specifically designed for high-mix, low-volume make-to-order settings. Through our collaborations with various manufacturing shops, we have identified the crucial elements that lead to their success. Despite the effective use of an ERP system, CIOvita relied on custom Excel spreadsheets for production scheduling, a method that became increasingly insufficient as the company grew. This approach brought forth several significant issues, including poor visibility and reduced responsiveness to changes. The resulting environment was characterized by constant fluctuations and a focus on crisis management. Before implementing Just Plan It, Loynds utilized spreadsheets, paper lists, and extensive discussions to establish delivery timelines and keep their engineering team updated on current work tasks, as highlighted by Richard Loynds, the Managing Director at Loynds. The main obstacle they faced was the lack of transparency about the actual activities taking place on the shop floor, which was exacerbated by rapidly changing processes. This absence of visibility often resulted in the failure to meet delivery commitments, ultimately threatening customer relationships and eroding trust. The switch to Just Plan It has not only addressed these issues but also brought about a significant enhancement in operational clarity and efficiency, allowing Loynds to regain control over their scheduling processes.

What is Siemens Opcenter APS?

The manufacturing sector is experiencing a remarkable evolution driven by digital advancements, pushing businesses to quickly and intelligently respond to unexpected changes while also managing shorter lead times and meeting customer demands effectively. This challenge is not limited to large enterprises; smaller and medium-sized businesses are similarly impacted. In response to these issues, Siemens has introduced Opcenter APS (formerly recognized as Preactor APS), utilizing advanced algorithms to synchronize demand with production capacity, thereby creating realistic production schedules. These solutions are adaptable for various planning horizons, encompassing long-term strategic planning that may last months or years, as well as medium-term tactical planning that covers several weeks, in addition to managing complex sequencing and scheduling requirements. Notably, Siemens Opcenter APS is ready for prompt deployment and can be customized according to specific needs, operating independently for planning and scheduling purposes while being able to integrate seamlessly with other software systems to boost overall operational effectiveness. This flexibility ensures that manufacturers can maintain competitiveness in an increasingly digital marketplace.
