Queue management

 

Overview

When planning production, we are faced with the challenge of guaranteeing deadlines, with adequate capacity and optimal process efficiency. Queue Management is a tool that allows us to know at all times and in advance if our installed capacity guarantees 100% service level with the deadlines agreed in the order backlog.

The aim is to visualise the workload of our order book every day and to analyse trends in order to adjust capacity to exactly what is needed

Outcomes

  • Improve customer service rate
  • Adjust capacity to actual customer needs
  • Anticipation of non-delivery
  • Provides visibility of workload in each process

How we achieve it

  • Training with a simulation game on the concepts of queue management
  • Tool design and adaptation to the factory processes
  • Implementation into the factory planning system fábrica
