Manufacturing Execution
Manufacturing execution is the process of executing a master plan to optimize production capacity, and covers the decision support and transactional activities driving the conversion of raw material and purchased components into finished products.
From setting batch sizes and scheduling manufacturing lines and resources to sequencing manufacturing runs and staging raw materials, it is critical that the manufacturing execution process integrates with the supply planning, warehouse management, and logistics/distribution processes. Extending process integration and collaboration via supplier portals to contract manufacturers is key to maintaining supply chain visibility and CM relationships.
Our Manufacturing Execution and Optimization solutions include strategic and tactical processes and approaches to improve:
- Production Control/Manufacturing Execution (Bill of Material, Recipe, Process, Routing)
- Production Planning and Scheduling (Discrete, Process, Flow, Mixed)
- Lean Manufacturing (strategy, process, systems enablement)
- Manufacturing Outsourcing (assessment, strategy and process, regions of the world, industries)
