Production Planning & Scheduling for Aerospace & Defense

Production Planning & Scheduling

Production planning for long, medium and short-term scheduling is critical to the success of facilities and field operations. Planners must analyze complex situations, taking into account a range of constraints and business rules, then generate and evaluate multiple scenarios to react quickly and intelligently to change. Our production planning suite for aerospace and defense OEMs and suppliers can be tightly integrated with other enterprise systems to help increase the efficiency, accuracy, and agility of manufacturing operations.

At aerospace and defense companies, long-term planning typically covers months to years and involves strategic decisions on issues like capital purchases and workforce size. Medium-term planning goes out a few months and deals with things like line balancing, synchronizing production flow and procurement decisions. Short-term planning looks ahead weeks and even days to schedule individual assets, teams and people, taking into account constraints such as limits on tools, people, skills and processes.

Our production planning and scheduling suite for aerospace and defense OEMs and suppliers offers a complete range of solutions for detailed production scheduling, capacity planning, and graphical master production scheduling. It can improve the synchronization of manufacturing processes, give greater visibility and control, and increase utilization and on-time delivery while reducing inventory levels and waste. Our solution is designed to work alongside and facilitate, rather than replace, existing systems and can be tightly integrated with ERP, accounting and forecasting software, spreadsheets and Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES).
