The success of any manufacturing organization hinges on efficient production planning, scheduling, and control. It is through careful regulation of raw materials, labour and equipment that a balance is achieved, with everything in its right place at the right time. Failure to properly plan and schedule activities can result in ineffective processes, wasted resources, and delayed delivery times. The task of traditional production scheduling can be intimidating, especially when unpredicted changes arise, such as sudden order amendments or equipment failures.

NERP's distinctive emphasis on automation differentiates it from conventional scheduling tools that largely depend on manual input. With NERP, the idea is 'set & forget.' Users just need to set their constraints, push a button, and let NERP take care of the rest. The strength of NERP is the ideal blend of automation and control it provides. Although NERP can independently handle scheduling, users maintain the power to perform manual adjustments whenever necessary.

NERP provides a multitude of features and advantages specifically tailored to address fundamental issues in production scheduling and enhance your entire manufacturing process:

1) Efficiently optimizes production schedules by prioritizing production orders based on their due dates, precedence, and sequencing guidelines.

2) Guarantees the best utilization of resources such as equipment and labour force, increasing productivity and minimizing costs on the production floor.

3) Boosts inventory management by minimizing surplus inventory levels through proper scheduling and sequencing of production orders.

4) Significantly enhances production efficiency and output by minimizing idle times, lessening setup and transition durations, and boosting throughput.

4) Facilitates the scheduling of production orders based on real-time demand and delivery stipulations, improving customer satisfaction in the process.

5) Preventive maintenance tasks scheduling and equipment downtime management are integrated, limiting interruptions to the production timetable.

6) Enables businesses to model different scenarios, assess the effects of scheduling changes, and make knowledgeable choices to enhance operational productivity.

7) Improves routing sequences by optimizing them and handling intricate routing procedures, thereby enhancing efficiency.

8) Delivers a harmonious blend of automated and manual rescheduling opportunities. This empowers businesses to conveniently adjust schedules in line with changes in demand or resource availability.

Providing an effective solution for streamlining and managing complex production processes, it's designed with efficiency and optimal resource utilization in mind.
