The powertrain is among the highest value systems within a vehicle. Powertrain planning and scheduling is designed to manage customer assembly and in-transit buffers, create sequences for engine assembly, and provide material schedules for feeding assembly. The solution can enable operations to maintain service levels to assembly plants, while considering multiple ship-to locations, multiple products on shared resources, and complex manufacturing feeding and supply operations.
Key capabilities of the i2 solution for powertrain planning and scheduling can include:
- Problem visibility with manual and automatic problem resolution
- Support for material coordination to final assembly including JIT, CONWIP and
other release mechanisms
- Bi-directional propagation of material issues to quickly understand the impact
on both demand and supply
Benefits of the i2 solution for powertrain planning and scheduling can include:
- Increased production throughput (asset productivity)
- Increased labor productivity
- Improved margin through improved product mix
- Improved planner productivity
- Allocation of constrained materials and capacity while meeting due dates and customer priorities
