The planning modules help you
solve questions related to Network Design, Product Portfolio,
Sales & Operations Planning, Demand Planning and Forecasting,
Master Planning, Distribution Planning, Order Booking and
Order Promising, Manufacturing or Production Scheduling and Supply Scheduling, Load
Planning and Transport Scheduling.
OMP Plus
OMP Designer solves questions such as: which supply, production, distribution and demand network is needed to meet the company’s business strategy? Decisions on the optimal product portfolio are also dealt with. The optimal functioning of each network node includes the definition of production policy strategies (e.g. make to order/make to stock), safety stock levels, product allocations and suchlike.
Future demand is calculated by OMP Forecaster, taking into account sales forecasts and sales history. It also provides answers for specific issues like promotion campaigns, special events, new products and collaborative forecasting with remote sales offices.
OMP Planner covers the Sales & Operations Planning process, calculating netted demand, comparing and matching it with the supply capacities on an aggregate level. Different demand and supply scenarios can be simulated. It also covers the planning of both the downstream and the upstream processes and inventories on a more tactical level. It includes Manufacturing and Supply Planning as well as Distribution Requirements Planning (DRP), Inventory Deployment and Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI).
OMP Order Manager supports the order allocation and order promising processes. It allocates generic and uncertain demand (such as forecasts and reservations) to specific and certain demand (such as customer orders) and generates realistic promise dates for order requests, based on Available-To-Promise (ATP) and Capable-To-Promise (CTP) information.
OMP Scheduler takes care of the finite capacity scheduling and sequencing of production, supply and transport orders. Detailed information on set-ups and contamination, material and resource availability, loading and storage constraints, waiting and production times can be taken into account.
