APS GANTTPLAN by Dualis – Intelligent Production Planning and Control
Intelligent detailed planning with APS DUALIS GANTTPLAN is an Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS) system for precise, resource-based production planning. Machines, materials, and personnel are planned synchronously, bottlenecks are identified early, and capacities are utilized optimally in a realistic manner. Visual planning boards, simulation-based scenarios, and automatic optimization logics enable flexible adaptation to dynamic manufacturing conditions. This results in reliable deadlines, reduced lead times, and sustainably improved delivery performance. Leannova provides comprehensive support for implementation – from analysis and implementation to integration into planning processes. The result is transparent, data-driven production control with increased efficiency and planning reliability. Leannova's ERP-APS Integration: The interface developed by Leannova seamlessly and bidirectionally connects Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central with DUALIS GANTTPLAN. Master data and orders are automatically synchronized, and optimized planning data is fed back into the system. This results in seamless production planning without media breaks – with consistent data, high transparency and significantly improved control quality.
Betriebsdatenerfassung (BDE) – Transparenz und Steuerung direkt aus der Produktion
Shop floor data collection (SFDC) provides the foundation for transparent, data-driven production control by capturing relevant information directly on the shop floor. In addition to times, material consumption and order progress are also reported and provided as a current, reliable data basis for planning, control, and analysis. This feedback is crucial for three key areas: ongoing production planning, precise post-calculation, and the current valuation of material stocks. Direct feedback from production creates a realistic picture of actual processes, enabling early detection of deviations and targeted process optimization. Furthermore, SFDC serves as a comprehensive information system at the workplace: drawings, production documentation, and order-related information are available directly at the machine, supporting employees in efficiently performing their tasks. Leannova provides holistic support for the implementation of SFDC solutions – from process analysis and system integration to operational use on the shop floor. The result is a consistent, reliable data foundation that effectively connects production planning, execution, and optimization.
