How UPLANIT Scheduling Works
Uplanit is a sophisticated yet simple to use advanced scheduler, it is a perfect cost effective tool for busy people who need to match supply and demand to deliver first class business performance. Uplanit is based around a standard set of rules, which can be adapted to any product or work environment. Uplanit will identify all possible methods of achieving the end result to find the most time effective programme to suit your needs.
Uplanit concentrates purely on maintaining control of the production resource element which is required to fulfil work, tasks, jobs which you wish to complete.
Uplanit's unique algorithms evolve and learn through the scheduling process, producing a result that can be refined to a high level of accuracy. Work can be scheduled with varying degrees of optimisation from none (as it comes), through to a specific elapsed time, with the result showing minimum late or early orders.
Data such as routes and operations can be held in the complementary ERP system or in Uplanit, usually as an ERP system takes care of job costing then the primary data is held in the existing software. In this instance it is usual for the input of data from the existing system to be the output from the ERP MRP run giving the inter dependency of the structured work orders, their “required by” or ”start dates” with orders numbers, part numbers and customer details. The resulting plan can then be fed back to the system to refine the material input requirements. Alternatively Uplanit can be run independently of all other programmes.
The Uplanit scheduler is not confined to manufacturing processors it is equally at home scheduling meeting rooms, school lessons or hospital wards. Any function that has a requirement to match resources with space, equipment or staffing constraints can be planned using Uplanit.
The flexible and easy to read views allow you to see what you need, when you need it, and because Uplanit matches demand to actual resources you will be able to create achievable plans, and facilitating more accurate decision making.
The low cost of ownership of Uplanit gives you a rapid return on your investment and Uplanit can be licensed for a single user on a PC up to server mounted for multiple users, giving you all the flexibility you need.
