Production
Pro enhances Window Designer and the Profile
Optimiser by scheduling and tracking work
throughout multiple factories, departments,
and work centres. Production Pro is designed
for larger manufacturing companies who require
the following facilities:-
100
work centres can be assigned throughout
multiple departments and factories.Any operations
within the manufacturing process can be
assigned to each part and action within
the system.
Operations
are assigned to work centres providing instant
and accurate timings for jobs.
Advance
reports allow the breakdown of operations
for checking purposes.
Work
centre times are calculated for every frame
within a job, producing a budget time within
each work centre for the job.
Actual
times can be recorded against the budget
times to assist with the reporting of performance
within each work centre.
Performance
factors can be continuously monitored and
adjusted so that in time more accurate budget
times are produced.
The
job searching facilities are enhanced so
that jobs can be tracked quickly within
the system allowing answers to questions
such as 'Where is a job?' and 'What is in
a work centre?'.
Jobs
can be allocated a route through the factory.
Jobs
can be re-routed quickly so that if a work
centre is overloaded or out of action work
can be re-assigned.
If
factory capacity is exceeded then jobs can
be re-assigned to another factory automatically
assigning the relevant costing adjustments.
Work
schedule reports can be produced showing
information such as how many people are
required in each work centre and if overtime
is required.
Automatic
scheduling and sub-batching enhances the
profile optimiser.
The
Profile Optimiser takes a days work, examines
the work centres and breaks it down into
sub batches based on each sub-batch spending
an equal amount of time within the busiest
work centres.
Jobs
can be kept together within a sub-batch
or split providing better optimisation of
the work centres.
Work
sheets, frame, sash and quality control
labels are produced in manufacturing order.
