Production Planner

Know which line will bottleneck and which order will run short

Plans production: capacity load, schedule, material shortages from MRP, late work orders, WIP, BOM cost and yield.

Every week it does for you:

  • Balances capacity by work center and flags bottlenecks
  • Warns of MRP material shortages before orders start
  • Tracks late orders, stalled WIP, OEE and cost variance

Skills

12 skills

  • Production Capacity Planner

    Analyses work-center utilisation across the scheduled load, finds bottlenecks and spare or short capacity, and proposes load balancing.

  • Work Order Assistant

    Tracks the work order lifecycle right on the work order page, flagging late or unassigned orders.

  • Production Schedule Optimizer

    Finds double-booked machines, unscheduled work orders and late starts in the production plan.

  • Material Shortage Predictor

    Checks material needs of scheduled work orders against stock, warning before the line stops and suggesting sourcing.

  • Work Order Delay Monitor

    Flags work orders past due or behind plan, with likely root causes for the shop-floor manager.

  • WIP Monitor

    Tracks work in progress on the shop floor: completion, ageing, scrap and stalled orders.

  • BOM Cost Analyzer

    Compares BOM material cost against actual consumption on completed orders, surfacing overruns and scrap.

  • Yield Improvement

    Measures yield and scrap concentration by work center on completed work orders.

  • OEE & Downtime Analyst

    OEE by work center against target and the top unplanned downtime reasons — the same numbers as the OEE page.

  • ECO Impact Reviewer

    Engineering changes approved but not applied, waiting too long for review, and the open work orders they affect.

  • Production Cost Variance Analyst

    Standard vs actual cost variance by work order for the latest costing period.

  • Lot Trace Assistant

    Traces a lot back to suppliers and forward to customers — the same graph as the traceability page.

Sample questions on live data

Every answer is a proposal inside the asker’s permission scope. Writes still wait for an authorised person.

1

Which machines are overloaded next week?

Production Capacity Planner

  1. 1.Sums scheduled minutes per work center
  2. 2.Compares with capacity from the work calendar
  3. 3.Proposes moving orders to free machines

A proposal the planner approves — the schedule is not rewritten silently.

2

Which work orders will be short of material at start?

Material Shortage Predictor

  1. 1.Explodes the BOM of scheduled orders
  2. 2.Nets stock and incoming receipts
  3. 3.Drafts a purchase request for the gap

A draft purchase request procurement confirms.

3

Why did line 2 OEE drop this month?

OEE & Downtime Analyst

  1. 1.Reads OEE from the same source as the OEE page
  2. 2.Ranks unplanned downtime reasons
  3. 3.Suggests maintenance to prioritise

Numbers match the OEE page; the supervisor decides.

The person decides, not the AI

Every write an assistant proposes waits for an authorised human to approve it. Nothing executes on its own.
