Why ShopFloor Planning & Execution

Why ShopFloor Planning & Execution

NAVEKSA ShopFloor is a system for planning and real-time paperless execution and data collection of Dynamics 365 Business Central / Dynamics NAV production orders.%

Also known as MES – a Manufacturing Execution System solution.%

The solution consists of 2 parts:%

A planning used by the production planner which deals with material shortages, sequence of orders, re-scheduling resources and capacity load and queue control.%

An execution part used by the shop floor operator which deals with time and attendance, starting and completing jobs, qc reporting etc.%

Here you see an overview of the work with planning the shop floor per resource (sequencing, assign priority to the rush order, queuee control) and operator execution and reporting:%

*The ShopFloor system is based on simple principles – a prioritirized sequence of the production orders process steps presented in 3 different logical sections: ORDERS RUNNING, ORDERS QUEING, and FUTURE ORDERS. The 3 sections can be shown per resource, work center, or even factory total.

*The meaning of each section is:

• ORDERS RUNNING (Processing) are being worked on at the moment.

• QUEING ORDERS (Waiting) has been completed by the previous jobstep and is now ready to be processed at the next jobstep.

• FUTURE ORDERS (Arriving) are orders which are being worked on somewhere in the factory and will show up at this workplace later.

*You can compare our solution logic with many different daily day situations where a waiting line is involved.

One example is some people checking in at the desk at the airport, others are queing up to check in, and others are on their way to the airport heading for the same flight.
