  2. Advanced Scheduling Workshop June 14 2007 Presented by Trevor Moore tmoore@shop9000.com

  3. Topics Covering • Introduction • The Journey • Concurrent Scheduler Mechanics • Scheduling in Visual • Improving your schedule

  4. IntroductionWhat is Scheduling? • Scheduling is the process of planning the different events involved in the mfg process To understand how much of your capacity is occupied 3 Reasons for creating a schedule To identify possible future threats to on-time deliveries To help your production, procurement and sales department to work together more successfully

  5. IntroductionWhat is Throughput? • Throughput is the value of something you have sold, less the cost of materials and services. Profit is throughput less operating expenses • Common Sense Throughput is a scheduling strategy to increase your company’s profit. What was/is the production plan for the bottleneck resource? Common Sense Throughput What resources are expected to be bottlenecks over the next three weeks? How can we increase sales of jobs and products that will generate more throughput?

  6. SCHEDULING IN VISUAL Two components of a schedule are • Capacity The time I’ve got • Load The time I need

  7. User Enters into the Data Base • The Concurrent Scheduler performs computations based on the entered data. Some of the entered data is mandatory and some is optional... Resource ID Finite or Infinite capacity Calendar exceptions Release Date Want Date Qty Forward Schedule DB Run type…pcs/hrs, Run time Scrap factors Part ID Work Order ID

  8. DBR Easy Lean TOC Scheduling Integrated ERP

  9. Scheduling Mechanics • How does the schedule decide where to place my job? Backward Schedule Vs Forward Schedule Want Date DB Priorities Release Date

  10. Empty Schedule Resource 1 A Wed – Rework -Forward Scheduled B B Thurs – Preventative Maintenance - Backward C C C Fri – Job Booked Months ago - Backward

  11. Schedule by Want Date A B B C C C Resource 1 A Wed – Rework -Forward Scheduled B B Thurs – Preventative Maintenance - Backward C C C Fri – Job Booked Months ago - Backward

  12. Schedule with Priorities A C C C B B Resource 1 A Wed – Priority 1 B B Thurs – Priority 50 C C C Fri – Priority 10

  13. What If C is Forward Scheduled? A C C C B B Resource 1 A Wed – Priority 1 B B Thurs – Priority 50 C C C Fri – Priority 10 – Forward Scheduled

  14. What If I forward Schedule all Jobs A B B C C C Resource 1 A Wed – Priority 1 B B Thurs – Priority 2 C C C Fri – Priority 3

  15. Why Backward Schedule? • Eliminates Contention – packing the schedule tighter • Reduces the maintenance of forward scheduling • Creates natural gaps in production used for rework, breakdowns, etc • Produces a more stable schedule Why Forward Schedule? • Conceptually easier to understand • Ability to sequence production • Best practice to start, prioritize top 10 jobs

  16. SCHEDULING IN VISUAL • WHAT TO SCHEDULE - RESOURCES • Bottlenecks • The most common error is to try and schedule everything. Only the bottlenecks matter.

  17. SCHEDULING IN VISUAL • HOW TO SCHEDULE • Finite vs. Infinite • An infinite schedule can be used to find the earliest date an order can be done but the standard schedule must be finite. • Schedule Normally • Turn this off on a resource to fake an infinite schedule for that resource.

  18. SCHEDULING IN VISUAL

  19. SCHEDULING IN VISUAL • Some companies leave an open shift each week to ensure they meet the schedule by week’s end.

  20. SCHEDULING PREFERENCES

  21. SCHEDULING IN VISUAL • WHAT TO SCHEDULE - RESOURCES • People vs. Machines • In a press shop we schedule presses (machines) because the operator is a given. This is the most common scenario in repetitive manufacturing. • Some companies have more machines than operators so they are scheduling skills. This is the most common scenario in a job shop.

  22. SCHEDULING IN VISUAL • WHAT TO SCHEDULE - RESOURCES • What are your resources • Don’t have more resources than you need. Think of work cells or production lines. Use groups. • If you are scheduling people then do it by skills. Use groups. Use schedule members by shift. • The fewer the resources the more accurate you will be.

  23. SCHEDULING IN VISUAL • Schedule Resources by Shift within a Group

  24. SCHEDULING IN VISUAL

  25. SCHEDULING IN VISUAL WHAT TO SCHEDULE - RESOURCES

  26. SCHEDULING IN VISUAL • WHAT TO SCHEDULE – ORDERS • Planned Orders vs. Firmed Orders • In a repetitive MRP environment the planned order is fine. Only firm it up as it becomes necessary. • Firm/Released vs. Unreleased • In a job shop/multiple leg environment you should keep legs unreleased until necessary.

  27. SCHEDULING IN VISUAL • WHAT TO SCHEDULE – ORDERS • This is the load part of the equation. It is the demand placed on the capacity. • Keep the number of orders on the schedule to a minimum. It reduces your workload and increases your accuracy.

  28. SCHEDULING IN VISUAL • ELEMENTS OF CAPACITY • Calendars • describe the normal working days, starting time, number of shifts, and shift duration of the manufacturing facility or a particular resource. • Calendar Exceptions • describe deviations form the normal working days, starting time, number of shifts and shift duration of the manufacturing facility or a particular resource. • Resources • What has the capacity you want to schedule

  30. SCHEDULING IN VISUAL • HOW TO SCHEDULE • Finite vs. Infinite • An infinite schedule can be used to find the earliest date an order can be done but the standard schedule must be finite. • Schedule Normally • Turn this off on a resource to fake an infinite schedule for that resource.

  31. SCHEDULING IN VISUAL • MAINTAINING THE SCHEDULE • Look At It • Neglect is not cure. Issue the Dispatch Reports and find out why they don’t work. • Fix It • Fix run rates • Fix your due dates

  32. SCHEDULING IN VISUAL • MAINTAINING THE SCHEDULE • Clean Up The Dust Bunnies • Under-produced work order don’t close on their own….. • Report What You Did • Auto Reporting • Barcoding

  33. Improving your Schedule • The Scheduling Window is telling me to run some jobs first even though they are not the ones we need. • There are a lot of little jobs that the Scheduling Window says I should be completing even though they are done. • Operations are not scheduled to run concurrently • I have four welders but the job only uses one even though it could use all four. • For some operations I need to schedule more than one resource. For instance I may need to schedule the press and the tooling at the same time.

  34. Improving your Schedule (2) • The schedule seems to want to start my first job last • There are so many resources on my Scheduling Window display that I have to scroll up and down to see what I need to see for my department. • I have so many resources to schedule that I don’t seem to have time to review them all. • I am not certain the run time on my jobs is accurate. • I’m forward scheduling all jobs but my work order refuses to start earlier
