Planning

Resource Planning and Workload Analysis

Do you ever promise a deadline to a customer and then frantically hunt for available people and machines? The Planning module continuously matches order demand with the real availability of your crews, revealing bottlenecks before they happen. Artificial intelligence analyses the schedule and automatically flags delay risks based on available capacity.

Benefits

What changes in the company after the rollout

The system compares order demand with the availability of people and machines. You see the bottleneck before it happens, not after the fact.

Visibility of bottlenecks

You see overloads in specific departments on charts before they impact on-time delivery.

Faster reaction to delays

You instantly identify overdue orders and assess the scale of the problem.

Better utilisation of resources

You precisely align demand for man-hours with the real availability of your crews.

Full control over production

You gain a clear view of all execution stages in one central dashboard.

Convenient work organisation

Changing dates by drag and drop directly in the schedule saves planner time.

Artificial intelligence

What AI does for you in this process

Bottleneck prediction

Artificial intelligence compares demand with crew availability and warns about overload risk.

Delay risk estimation

Algorithms monitor the distribution of statuses and predict which orders may appear in the overdue table.

Schedule optimisation

The system analyses daily workload and suggests the optimal arrangement of orders in the calendar grid.

Module description

The process from start to finish

Monitor the overall production status with clear dashboard tiles that show orders in progress, ready to ship, and those blocked due to missing materials. Plan crew work on an interactive order schedule, moving tasks by drag and drop within product families. Check the percentage workload of specific areas such as welding, assembly or electricians on a weekly and monthly basis. Instantly identify overdue orders in a dedicated table, including exact delay time and assigned customer. Filter views by status, department and employee to keep full control over plant throughput. Switch between list, calendar and workload chart views to match the tool to your current needs. Change date ranges and analyse how production stages are distributed across individual months to make optimal use of available man-hours.
