Production scheduling software for small business, without a planning department
In a small plant, the schedule is usually the plant manager's job, done between a customer call and a machine that will not start. ProductionPlanning.ai is built for that person: a schedule that fits your machines, set up in days, and simple enough to keep up to date in a few minutes a day.
Manufacturing scheduling software for small business
- Plants with a handful to a hundred or so people
- No full time planner, or one planner doing three jobs
- Planning in a spreadsheet, on a whiteboard, or from memory
- Late orders found out on the day they were due
- A few key machines everything passes through
Simple production scheduling software, on purpose
- Three lists to start: orders, work centers, routings
- Enter orders, work centers and routings in one screen, or import them from a spreadsheet on the Plant plan
- One rule to choose, earliest due date by default
- One screen: Gantt chart, late orders, bottleneck
- Unlimited users, so the floor sees the same plan as the office
- No consultant and no implementation project
If you are not sure your spreadsheet is ready to import on the Plant plan, read replace your production planning spreadsheet.
Priced for a small plant
The Line plan costs 149 USD per plant per month, or 1,490 USD per year, with up to 10 work centers, 500 open orders and unlimited users. When you add machines or need shortages and shop floor status, the Plant plan at 429 USD per month adds them. See the full pricing.
What a small plant gets back
- The hours spent every week rebuilding the spreadsheet
- Promise dates you can keep, because they come from real capacity
- A clear view of the one machine that decides your output
- A plan the rest of the team can read when you are not there
