Master Production Scheduling (MPS) Software

Master Production

OUR MASTER PRODUCTION SCHEDULING SOFTWARE ENSURES YOU CAN MEET YOUR CUSTOMER COMMITMENTS

Production schedule software, commonly known as Master Production Scheduling (MPS) in ERP, provides a master plan for what you need to produce, how much and when to produce it. Your open production orders, sales orders and forecast entries are used as finished goods demand, and your inventory levels, batch production jobs, and receipts are considered as supply. MPS generates an accurate, detailed schedule of orders across one or more plants, based upon this granular view of supply and demand.

Schedulers have a calendar view of planned orders with drill down, analysis, grouping and rescheduling capabilities. Using the scheduling dashboard, one can evaluate the batch jobs created in a master production schedule by their groupings (e.g. allergen, item, or priority) and review the relationships between their supply and demand factors.

NEED AN ADVANCED PRODUCTION SCHEDULING TOOL?

Take advantage of a finite capacity scheduling tool that creates and adjusts production schedules in minutes and considers:

  • Available labor force, including their calendars and their skill sets.
  • The cost to produce an item on a piece of equipment.
  • Inventory shortages at the time of batch job production.
  • Incremental batch job tasks, including equipment setups.
  • Machine availability, sequencing rules and other secondary constraints.

MATERIAL REQUIREMENTS PLANNING

Material Requirements Planning (MRP) optimizes your procurement of raw materials, allowing you to maintain optimum inventory levels while minimizing carrying costs. MRP gives planners a detailed, consolidated view of supply and demand.
