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)
