Our Production Planning services

We pride ourselves on providing the highest quality Production Planning services to address business needs. These services and solutions include:

Discrete Manufacturing:
Discrete manufacturing is an industry term for the manufacturing of finished products that are distinct items, capable of being easily counted, touched or seen. The Discrete Manufacturing scenario can be used in different variants, production by lot size, make-to-order production and assembly processing.

Process Manufacturing:
It is an integrated planning tool for batch and recipe-oriented process manufacturing. It is primarily designed for the chemical, pharmaceutical, food and beverage industries as well as the batch-oriented electronics industry.

Repetitive Manufacturing:
With repetitive manufacturing, master plans are typically created on a period and quantity basis, not based on orders. A quantity of one product is manufactured over a certain period. The product is processed in a constant flow and interim products are generally not stocked.

Kanban
Kanban is a procedure for production control and material flow control that avoids any time-consuming requirement planning and implements requirements-oriented production control. With kanban, a material is produced or procured only when it is actually required. A specific quantity of the components required to produce a material are stored on-site in containers. Once a container is empty, this component is replenished in accordance with a predefined strategy (in-house production, external procurement, or stock transfer).
