No sensors, no control.

Conventional ERP systems carry out only rough capacity scheduling and do not take into account the present production status.

These approximated fixed order schedules with buffer times and material availabilities planned and assigned to both machines and workers are optimized only within the production-related detailed planning process itself, without the benefit of real time feedback and correction.

Target:

1. Highest quality combined with on-time delivery and lowest costs.

The preconditions for an optimum detailed planning:

Real-time feedback messages (present production status)
