The Master & Production Schedule system had a very low level of maturity, leading the organization working mainly on a reactive mode instead of anticipation and mitigation mode.

Approach

> Diagnosis of planning team organization, processes and tools at each level of the planning organization (strategic plan, tactical plan, daily production plan)

˃ Definition & set up of a comprehensive Master & Production Schedule system involving all functions along the value chain (governance, processes, KPI set, operational meetings and reviews).

> Development and deployment of a planning tool at station level to monitor and anticipate workload / capacity balance

Results

>  Improvement of workload / capacity balance by 15%

> Production performance in line with the recovery plan – No further postponement

> Risks anticipated and development of an anticipation mindset
