  1. QAD Master Scheduling Workbench (QAD MSW) Carianne Nieuwstraten – Sr. Product Manager – MFG/SC Brent Shooltz – Sr. Business Systems Analyst – MFG/SC MMUG - 03/22/2010

  2. Agenda • MFG/SC - Key Strategic Initiative • Master Scheduling Objective & Challenges • Workbench Framework Introduction • Roadmap • Master Scheduling Futures • Demo • Early Adopter Program • Wrap Up

  3. Key Strategic Initiative Provide a workbench for each key role in the Manufacturing and Supply Chain areas

  4. Master Scheduler’s Objective • Establish an item’s most optimum build schedule that meets customer demand • Measurements : • Improved Customer Service • On time deliveries • Reduced back orders • Reduced Inventories • Inventory turns • Reduced inventory investment • Stable Manufacturing Schedule • Increased production efficiency • Reduced set up costs/time • Reduced overtime costs

  5. Master Scheduler’s Challenge Executives Finance There’s too much cash tied up in inventory! ROI must improve; the stockholders are not happy! Manufacturing Engineering There are too many changes! Provide fixed schedules and the correct parts and delivery will improve. There’s a new product introduction scheduled for the fall! But we need more time for design! Sales Service levels are down. I need more inventory! Whatever it takes to keep the customer happy!

  6. Master Scheduling Challenge

  7. Common Planning Situation

  8. MSW & PSW Framework Introduction

  9. Planning & Scheduling – Future Flow Period - > Month - > Week - > Day - > Shift - > Interval - > hour Base Base PSW MSW MSW CAC Production Planned Production Dispatched Demand received Production Scheduled Production Reported • MSW/PSW/CAC Together • Consolidation of 50 maintenance, report and inquiry programs • New capabilities (production scheduling, integrated component checking) • Production Dispatched (PSW) • Multi-Select • Auto Release • Export Dispatch List To Excel • (MSW) • Export Schedule To Excel • Production Dispatched (Base) • Integrated Component Availability Check • Integrated Single & Multi WO Print • View only security for shop floor personnel • Production Reported (Base) • Monitor WIP of production order • Monitor WIP of operations • Monitor WIP of production cum • Production Reported (PSW) • (MSW) • Monitor activity with visual completion indicators • Production Planned (MSW) • Capacity & Load Planning • Manage Scheduling Horizon • Apply Data Groupings/Filters • Select Views (daily-weekly-monthly) • Apply Totaling (KYB) • Apply Leveling (KYB) • Production Planned (Base) • Auto-Firm • Manage Production Order • Header Attributes • Operation Attributes • Date & Times Many new capabilities + 60> reports, inquiries, maintenance and process programs rolled up into the new Production Scheduler • Demand Received (MSW) • Exception Based Visual Indicators • Filtering by Exceptions • Control Content - Demand/Supply • Control Demand Sources • Demand Received (Base) • Integrated CRP calculates operation dates • Demand Detail Drilldown • Monitor Inventory

  10. Master Scheduling (MSW) Scheduling view designed for the purpose of master scheduling Framework Introduction

  11. Production Scheduling (PSW) Scheduling view designed for the purpose of production scheduling Framework Introduction

  12. Framework Introduction Search Panel extracts content for both workbench views Navigator Panel drives content focus of both workbench views Supporting Frames apply seamlessly to both workbench views

  13. MSW: Primary Grid-Set Introduction

  14. Capacity Displays information per selected resource/item in the Schedule Grid Supply/Demand Provides demand & supply context for selected item in the Schedule Grid. Primary information used for scheduling decision making and adjustments Schedule Primary context of the workbench. All workbench activity and navigational behavior is driven from this panel

  15. Supporting Panels Enables master scheduling action and decision making. Represents over 30 maintenance programs and reports! User selects the item row in Schedule Grid.

  16. MSW: Views Create customized workbench layouts

  17. Views Provides ability to create different user defined workbench layouts and save them for quick access Saves Panel Size Saves Filter/Sort/Group Settings of each Panel

  18. Example: Created View with Master Scheduling (MSW) and Production Scheduling (PSW) side-by-side

  19. MSW Roadmap 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 Standard Edition June 2010 : QAD 2010 SE release • Core Functionality :- Master Scheduling Workbench (MSW) - MSW integrated Component Check Capabilities 19

  20. MSW Roadmap 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 Enterprise Edition September 2010 : QAD 2010.1 EE release • Core Functionality :- Master Scheduling Workbench (MSW) - MSW integrated Component Check Capabilities 20

  21. Futures: MPS Leveling Calculation ….is a planning tool to aid in the creation of a leveled Master Production Schedule

  22. Leveling the Master Schedule

  23. QAD MPS Leveling Calculation Solution • A customizable batch program that automatically calculates a level MPS for a specified date range by site • Batch program output can be viewed, modified and re-leveled in MSW

  24. Demo

  25. Master Scheduling Workbench Value • Reduces master scheduling time and complexity • Provides exception alerts to demand, supply and capacity changes • Compresses manufacturing response • Ability to simulate changes • Enables to be proactive

  26. Interested In Being An Early Adopter? • Early Adopter Criteria: • .Net use with QAD Enterprise Applications • eB2.1, SP4 or higher • Using QAD Enterprise Applications Discrete Work Orders or Advanced Repetitive • No or verified customizations • High data integrity/accuracy • BOM’s, inventory records, clean MRP data etc. • Verified business need for MSW, PSW and integrated component check capabilities • Resource availability from May 10th through around July 12th • Project Manager, Master Scheduler, Production Scheduler, Material Planner availability • Go live within the May 10th – July 12th time period

  27. QAD Demo Center • MSW and PSW • Tuesday, March 23rd: 8:30 – 11:30am • Step through specific business scenarios • You ask, we show • Come talk to us!
