Secondary Resource Planning
MPDV Mikrolab GmbH
Plan tools and other resources
Planning orders for machines is often not enough. In many industries, tools and other production resources also need to be included in the resource planning. You can even check availability at the same time.
The mApp Secondary Resource Planning plans tools and other production resources required to manufacture your articles. The software provides a Gantt chart to show how your resources are used. With this chart, you can directly see if resources are assigned multiple times. During planning, these resources are displayed in a conflict list.
Benefits of resource planning
Keep track of your tools and other production resources and use them efficiently. Avoid bottlenecks and unnecessary standstills in production.
