The daily challenges of scheduling

Sudden changes in orders occur frequently – you spend a lot of time scheduling and re-scheduling the production plan
Interdependency of resources in the production ow – several machines in your production are dependent on each other, which makes production scheduling very complex
Shortest possible delivery time – many orders are rush orders and it is vital that the company is able to deliver within short timeframes – your window for executing orders is small and you often have to resort to paying staff overtime to get orders out on time
The reliability of promised delivery times must be ensured at all times – customers expect short delivery times and they demand that they are precise and reliable – also in situations where production is busy. You sometimes feel forced to promise delivery that requires that production must make ad hoc solutions to get things done on time
You sometimes experience bottleneck situations in production – preventing optimal production and causing delayed order deliveries
Predictions of the consequences of scheduled activities often fail – you often nd it di cult to get an overview of the secondary effects of activities, e.g. how orders affect each other
