Production Scheduling

Using simulation to improve your scheduling techniques.

SET provides advanced scheduling solutions with the use of the Simio Risk-Based Planning and Scheduling (RPS) software. We assist you to predict risk, manage uncertainty and align operations. Unlike other scheduling solutions, Simio allows you to perform Risk Analysis in Real Time!

What is Simio Production Scheduling

With Risk-Based Planning and Scheduling (RPS) with Simio simulation software, you generate a schedule by simulating the flow of the planned work through a model of your system.
Traditional scheduling is deterministic and does not account for unplanned events or process variation.  Therefore it yields optimistic and unreliable outcomes and your schedule goes from being feasible to unfeasible over time.

The Problem?

There is a vast discrepancy in your planning because your predicted schedule does not represent actual performance and is therefore buffered with inventory, capacity, or time…
The Solution? Simio Scheduling – It extends the current advanced planning and scheduling practices to fully account for variation and system interdependencies allowing you to mitigate risk and uncertainties!

Real-time Scheduling?

Make real time decisions with Simio Scheduling automates comparing a deterministic MRP schedule with a variation adjusted schedule to let you effectively deal with breakdowns, unplanned events and material shortages.  Simio integrates with various MES systems including Wonderware.

The Benefits of Simio Scheduling Software

This full-service solution is sure to improve your processes and accuracy.  Handling your production schedule has never been easier, once you incorporate our advanced planning and scheduling software into your day-to-day operations. Our software has a variety of benefits for schedulers:

• Solve your scheduling dilemmas.  Risk-based scheduling and planning is the future. If you’re looking to stay ahead of the game, Simio will keep you there.
• Control your risk. Our scheduling software ensures you manage your risk and eliminate uncertainties. You’ll be reducing costs and driving revenue at an unparalleled rate.
• Manage critical constraints.  By exposing costs and accurately modelling all constraints, you’ll save your company money and time.
• Improve production schedule performance.  Simio ensures you can predict and plan – allowing you to improve production safely and without added risk.
• Add variation.  By adding variation, Simio helps schedulers stick to accurate plans while increasing profits at the same time.
