Supply Chain Planning Solutions (Order Fulfilment)
Process variability and reliability are significant problems in the metals supply chain. Demand volatility is also an issue. These problems can make the best laid production plans rapidly inaccurate.
Broner solutions include order fulfilment tools that provide rapid response to:
- production disturbances
- urgent orders
or
- changed order specifications,
while maximising delivery performance and throughput and minimising inventories, lead times and costs.
The Broner Material Planner is a rule-based allocation system that determines the most effective allocation of raw material and in-process or purchased inventories in the plant to customer orders. If there is insufficient material to meet current demand, the Broner Material Planner will generate the net requirement for raw material to be released into the plant.
The Broner Production Planner is a finite-capacity, constraints-based, supply-chain planning model that, according to the availability of machines in the plant and user-selected parameters, allocates capacity to customer orders.
Broner Plate Combination provides specialised material planning functions for plate production.
