With our ECI APS solution, you can:
Use advanced finite capacity-based planning and scheduling while minimizing downtime
ECI Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS) enhances finite capacity-based planning and scheduling by optimizing resource allocation and minimizing downtime. By integrating real-time data from machines, personnel, and inventory, ECI APS enables accurate capacity assessments that reflect actual resource capabilities.
You can see limitations of each machine and worker, allowing for realistic scheduling that avoids overloading and prevents bottlenecks. Additionally, you can leverage "what-if" scenario analysis, visual planning tools, automated alerts, and performance analytics and proactively manage potential issues, track work orders clearly, and gain insights into productivity.
Produce and deliver parts to customers faster
ECI APS accelerates the production and delivery of parts to customers by streamlining scheduling and optimizing resource allocation. Its real-time data integration allows for precise visibility into the availability of machines, personnel, and materials, enabling manufacturers to create efficient production plans that prioritize critical orders.
Quickly adjust to changing conditions, such as unexpected delays or new customer demands, ensuring that production flows smoothly without bottlenecks. You can also set up automated alerts to keep your teams informed about potential issues, allowing for rapid response and minimizing downtime.
Make best use of materials and resources
ECI APS provides a comprehensive, data-driven approach to production planning. By integrating real-time data from various sources, including inventory levels, machine capabilities, and workforce availability, you can forecast in a way that optimally aligns resources with production demands.
Enable just-in-time inventory management, reducing excess stock and minimizing waste. It’s "what-if" scenario analysis allows manufacturers to explore different approaches to resource allocation, helping identify the most cost-effective and efficient strategies. By optimizing workflows and automating data collection, ECI APS ensures that materials are used strategically, enhancing overall productivity and reducing costs.
