Real-time Scheduling System  

Seiki Graphical Scheduler Planning BoardFinding a balance between the demands of meeting your target delivery dates and managing your work flow efficiently and economically can be difficult when relying upon manually controlled methods, such as multiple uncontrolled spreadsheets to manage highly complex planning and interwoven scheduling procedures. The Seiki Scheduler is designed to help you effectively manage and control your manufacturing.

  • Powerful 'what if' capabilities
  • Reduction in lead times
  • Maximise output and profitability

What does it do?

To achieve a high level of visibility and control, real-time systems that relate to resources and operations provide a far more accurate picture of the current status of production on the shop-floor on which to base key planning decisions. Seiki Systems' real-time finite capacity graphical scheduler can interrogate any external data source such as ERP/MRP to establish the target planned completion dates and the number of parts required for each works order, or this data can be entered manually. It schedules each works order according to the scheduling rules, current work loads and available capacity and creates a synchronised work-to-list for each individual resource, including part numbers, individual operations, due dates and forecast finish dates.

Seiki Scheduler Resource Utilisation Analysis ScreenOrders and operations can be easily viewed using single mask technology and re-scheduling can be achieved with simple drag-and-drop, which displays the total potential 'ripple' effects of any single change or multiple changes via an easily identifiable traffic light system. The system also displays resource utilisation together with real capacity availability means the implication of unexpected delays or changes are easily visualised. This results in a predictive and proactive (as opposed to reactive) approach to the whole production process, ensuring that the priority delivery dates are optimised and met.
