• This is what you have said- Make better planning/scheduling decisions

• Workbenches

- More automation for manufacturing• Manage by exception

- Extending/connecting the enterprise• Integration / interoperability

- Better access to manufacturing information• Leveraging mobile devices

- “Next level” of manufacturing (process and discrete)

Building to an Effective Enterprise


6

• Master Scheduling Workbench (MSW)- Aligns demand and supply throughout the

planning horizon• Highlights supply shortages• Calculates projected inventory

- Calculates and monitors workload capacity• Highlights overloads

- Provides access to processes and information to put decisions into action• Shows immediate effects

Making Better Planning / Scheduling Decisions


7

• Production Scheduling Workbench (PSW)- Aligns demand and supply throughout the

scheduling horizon• Highlights supply shortages• Calculates projected inventory

- Calculates and monitors workload capacity• Highlights overloads

- Component Availability Check (CAC)• Checks material availability before committing to

production

- Provides access to processes and information to put decisions into action• Sequencing (drag and drop)• Shows immediate effects



8

• Kanban Workbenches- Kanban sizing methods (interactive workbench

approach)• Loop

- Based on demand, lead time, and safety stock

• Process- Based on demand, period interval, setup time, and

production cycle time

- .Net technology base• Improves performance

- Calculation help and analysis capabilities- Simulation support (save/load)



9

• Periodic costing- Compliance issue with (local) legal tax

requirements in many countries- Compliance issue with the IFRS- Meet established business practices

• Retro-pricing- Accounting Compliance- Automatic

More Manufacturing Automation


10

• Load-leveling, constraint-based master scheduler- Order smoothing- EPEI- Finite capacity

• Builds master schedule automatically- Reduces manual effort and Time

12

• Quality Extensions- Establish improvements in quality

management through inspection result processing• Document quality test results associated with

attribute values• Consistent product specifications• Quality criteria and supplier certification• Supplier performance

- Product traceability• Backward / forward

Extending / Connecting the Enterprise


13

• Serialization- Improve supply chain efficiency (operations)

• Trading partner regulations

- Brand/product protection And safety

• Counterfeit products• Tracking / tracing

- Compliancy issues



14

• Connectivity / services- Fully integrated inventory transaction APIs- Label / bar code printing



15

• Information requirements- Adoption of the .Net UI and reporting

framework technologies- Enhanced usability and flexibility

• Combine information needs• Customizable

Better Manufacturing Information Access


16

• Business Intelligence- Connects people to data- Analyzes data and disseminates measurement

information• Provides visibility to historical trends resulting in

operational insight• Supports better, faster business decision-making

- Cut costs- Identify opportunities

Better Manufacturing Information Access


17

• Mixed mode manufacturing environments- Single solution design- Integrated features- Consolidated

• Business processes• Consistent UI

Manufacturing to the Next Level


18

• Item characteristics- Extended item attributes

• Attribute values must be stored by item• Track and trace each material by its attribute values

- Establishes a database to improved capabilities to manage inspections in quality processes

- Helps meet regulatory compliance• ROHS ((restriction of hazardous substances)• REACH (registration, evaluation, authorization and

restriction of chemicals)• SOC (substances of concern)• GHG (greenhouse gas emission data)



19

• Item characteristics : example- Item attribute (potency)- Formulas- Batch balancing- Work order allocations- Lot trace capabilities

• Lot trace workbench



20

• MRP/Gross Requirements Calculation- Material planning for lean production

environments (pull systems)- Component demand

• Average demand calculation• Kanban workbenches

- Process- Loop



21

• Lean transactions- Cumulative orders- Accountability- Improved integration (closed loop)

• Subcontract supply subsystem- Plan components for outbound shipment

• Pick / ship (sub-location)• Ownership accountability• Subcontractor sends kanbans



22

• Near term- Periodic costing- Information requirements- Business intelligence- MSW/PSW and kanban workbenches

• Future- Item attributes (potency / batch balancing)- Quality extensions (traceability)- Serialization- Connectivity / services- Load-leveling, constraint-based master scheduler- Lean material planning / extensions- Subcontract manufacturing- Retro-pricing
