Automated machine capacity planning

nuclear industry

Core pain

We were guessing our machine capacities, leading to bottlenecked equipment, idle operators, and an inability to accurately plan future production schedules.
Final results

We cut capacity calculation times, built multi-scenario scheduling models, and gave the plant the ability to accurately forecast future machine loads.
Key stages

Seven weeks total: study and categorize the machinery, digitize production cycles, sync sales with operations, and build the final capacity algorithms.
Resources used

We brought together a combined team: the sales reps, the main planning desk, the technical specialists, and the floor supervisors.
