BOZ Group uses an algorithm for maximum use of people and machines

For end-customers it is fantastic that the BOZ Group (www.bozgroup.eu) offers endless possibilities in metalworking. But this diversity also creates a huge puzzle for planning and realisation. Variable quantities, complexity and processing steps and that for 2500 production orders in circulation. Then monitoring and, where necessary, adjustment is quite a job. In addition, moving one order can have a major impact on the productivity of one or more processes, which means that the capacity of people and machines is not optimally used.

The solution for the BOZ Group is a visual planning for all orders and capacity. This allows you to see immediately what a replanning action on, for example, the bottleneck means for the entire production chain. You only see those processes that are relevant and you can immediately see whether capacity is suitable for the customer. If all orders are correct, all changes are simply written back to ERP.
An algorithm is placed above that that carries out the most important planning actions based on predetermined criteria. It automatically provides a proposal for the optimal planning, which only needs to be approved by the planner. Where and why orders are rescheduled are logged, so that you gain insight into the critical processes.
