SmartPlan: plan production and schedule operations, automating order management
Business Impact
Reduce filler bars by up to 40% while increasing on-time delivery by up to 15%
Generate fully automated schedules from order book for both single and dual casting
Dynamically optimize existing schedules (1-2 days ahead) with incoming orders
How It Works
01
Proprietary Optimization Algorithm
State-of-the-art optimization algorithm specifically designed to solve complex dual and single casting scheduling challenges across casting and rolling operations
02
Comprehensive Constraint Management
Processes all critical operational parameters including width and gauge transitions, heat size requirements, grade transition rules, starting and tailing bars, total schedule length, and more
03
Automated Schedule Orchestration
Proprietary algorithm runs nightly to analyze the complete order book, evaluate new orders, reoptimize existing schedules (replacing filler bars when possible), and construct optimal new schedules
