What is Daily Capacity Planning modeling tool and how does it work with Made2Manage?
Daily Capacity Planning Model is an Excel Model with Tab, Pivot tables and totals that allow a scheduler to get a complete visual of the daily schedules, analyze conflicts and set the priories and changes to the schedule as the day proceed.
Without a similar tool the scheduler is left to guess, manually try to build models and enter data or go out to the plant to see what is really happening.
It uses data from Made2Manage and perform simple to complex calculations for key factors and metrics to keep production scheduling efficiently. To update the model all that is needed is to click the refresh Icon in Excel.
How does the Daily Capacity Planning modeling tool enhance Judy’s scheduling ability?
Breaks down the Jobs operations in tabs that are color coded and have logical relationships to list and total together. These can be work centers, high value customers, rush jobs or any characteristics that allow the scheduler to view the information from their preferred view point.
Pulls in other job/operation data element characteristics that can be used to filter the data. Such data allows scheduling to minimize setup and group logical jobs together.
Perform complex calculations to highlight potential problems such as Jobs not moving according to estimate, slack to complete a job on time diminishing or daily/weekly/mthly capacity views.
What changes does Judy easily handle using the Daily Capacity Planning model?
Moving up a job in the schedule or slide in an unexpected rush Job.
Number of employees per work center have unexpectedly changed.
Unexpected material delay and implications to schedule.
The ability to view implications to transfer employees between Work Centers or Departments.
How much would the company gain by working overtime in Work Centers or Departments?
