Metal processing companies come in all shapes and sizes, but what they have in common is that running the shopfloor is not easy.
Often, these companies work on a huge amount (often 1000+) of work orders in parallel.
Batch sizes are small and frequently the product type to be manufactured is unique, which makes it difficult to estimate the exact amount of time that will be required for manufacturing.
In addition, there are often many processing steps, intermediate outsourced work and sometimes subassemblies to take care of. As a result, production planning whilst taking into account delivery deadlines is a challenge.
