The Frontier® ERP System is designed to support mixed mode
manufacturing environments, providing flexible methods of production
scheduling based on an organization’s business model, product
lines and production requirements. The Frontier® ERP System
supports traditional work order based scheduling under a FIFO model,
production run based scheduling based on user-defined grouping
criteria, as well as just-in-time based KanBan scheduling.
Frontier Production Scheduling Supports:
- Daily scheduling of production work orders based on actual
setup and run times as defined against a product and work center,
with default sequencing of production activities based on a FIFO assumption
- Interactive, finite constraint based work center scheduling
to adjust and manipulate planned schedules to meet material,
labor and efficiency objectives
- Forward and backward scheduling of production orders based
on anticipated start or completion dates
- Automatic scheduling of lower level component orders based
on parent level start/completion dates and established lead time
offsets
- Manual, KanBan based scheduling of selected items based on
standard production lot sizes and minimum available inventory
targets
- Production scheduling based on the grouping of similar items
into overall production batches or runs with defined sequences
for production execution (iSchedule)
