Additional Product Information
The Resource Scheduling System, RSS, is a powerful advanced planning and scheduling (APS) system that enables you to quote, measure and attain accurate delivery dates while optimizing your schedule. RSS takes the guesswork out of decision making because of three very important features:
* RSS generates finite capacity schedules based on the actual loaded capacity of your facility.
* RSS’ manufacturing script language precisely models how product flows through your facility.
* RSS knows the true capabilities of your people, machines, and all required resources.
This means that the delivery dates you quote your customer are real and attainable because you know the true capacity of your resources for the time period that the order is requested. Even if the order is requested for one week, one month, or six months from now, RSS gives you a crystal ball into the future and tells you what you will get accomplished.
RSS will also tell you if a quoted order can not be completed by a requested date, and the reasons why. RSS then monitors the schedule as it is executed and adjusts it as required.
RSS recognizes the reality of your business world - a world where machines break down and workers book-off sick. Best of all, it provides both planning and execution management guidelines in easy-to-read graphic formats with easy-to-use "point and click" and "drag and drop" operation. Whenever something occurs that will change a completion date, RSS notifies you and highlights the potential problem. With RSS, you will know far in advance if a change in the schedule will cause an order to be pushed late. Imagine the power this gives you. You now have time to be proactive, because using RSS, you can develop a plan to get back on track, and the customer will never know their order was ever in jeopardy. RSS is the tool to help you manage the constant change on the shop floor.
With RSS you will be able to:
* give your sales people the ability to quote accurate delivery dates to customers
* deliver orders on time
* answer customer inquiries while they’re on the phone
* optimize the capacity of your critical resources
* reduce lead times
* reduce inventories
* increase throughput and therefore profit
Companies that have installed RSS see results in a very short period of time, which means your payback is fast and you make more money on the investment sooner. In installation after installation, RSS has given companies the ability to achieve 100% on time delivery, cut lead times by more than 25%, dramatically reduce in-process inventories and set new company records for the number of orders shipped in a month. Not only does this help make current customers happy, but your company’s reputation in the market for on time delivery performance will get you more business. It has for our customers!
