Production engineering

Rapid design, setup, and adjustment of your production flow help create efficient and agile manufacturing operations.

  • Product and Production Setup Define critical elements like bills of materials (BOMs), routings, and work centers to ensure smooth and effective production operations.
  • BOM Management Organize and evaluate bills of materials to streamline product updates and maintain structured manufacturing processes.
  • Product Customization Streamline and integrate product configuration processes, accommodating the complexity that customers demand with ease.

Production planning​

Intelligence based on real-time data and embedded AI paves the way to production optimisation.

  • Optimized Demand Forecasting Model and adjust demand forecasts while factoring in supplier and capacity constraints to achieve flexible and precise optimization.
  • Harmonizing Supply and Demand Ensure materials are ordered automatically and arrive on time, aligning with production schedules to meet manufacturing goals.
  • Efficient Capacity Management Track and manage work-center capacities to prioritize production orders effectively and maximize the utilization of resources and assets.

Quality ​​management

Leveraging a cloud ERP with embedded quality management capabilities helps ensure your business delivers high-quality products.

  • Development and implementation of quality measures Define holistically where and how to implement quality measures along the value-creation process.
  • Inspections and capture of results Inspect materials against defined criteria and document them before using the data to decide on usage.
  • Product and process improvement Analyse captured data to identify suitable follow-up actions, such as triggering an improvement process.

Manufacturing operations​

Production control begins with comprehensive process transparency.

  • Production Order Management Generate, modify, and oversee production orders before they are finalized and executed, ensuring smooth initiation of production activities.
  • Live Production Tracking Gain control over production processes and expenses with real-time updates from the shop floor, allowing for immediate adjustments as needed.
  • Proactive Production Oversight Utilize real-time data and alerts to identify and resolve potential issues early, preventing disruptions and maintaining efficient manufacturing operations.

Manufacturing options

Process automation can be supported across a broad range of manufacturing processes.

  • Discrete Manufacturing Oversight Manage discrete manufacturing operations across various setups, including make-to-stock and engineer-to-order, ensuring efficient and adaptable production processes.
  • Process Manufacturing Coordination Handle process manufacturing tasks using process orders and master recipes to streamline production and maintain consistency in output.
  • Enhanced Process Management Implement supplementary processes such as repetitive manufacturing, Kanban, and just-in-time or just-in-supply replenishment to optimize production efficiency.
