Lean Manufacturing
Machine shops and manufacturers have been striving for this principle long
before to the conception of this term. Efficiency has always been a primary
concern of manufacturers and job shop owners from the beginning. Ehmer Computer
Systems developed OmniShopPro with this purpose in mind.
Process Planning can be as specific and detailed or as loose as you
prefer. Inspection blocks can be included for each operation. OmniShopPro's job
cost analysis will enable you to compare the estimates with actuals. OmniShopPro
automatically creates subsequent route sheets the next time that part is
ordered. Process times and material quantities are adjusted according to the the
new order quantity. If you change a route sheet the system will automatically
use the changed route sheet for subsequent orders of this part number.
OmniShopPro's Forward Finite Scheduling uses a technology that is
unparalleled in the job shop and manufacturing software industry. Unlike "Mickey
Mouse" scheduling (Drag and Drop or white boards) Forward Finite Scheduling uses
complex algorithms to determine the most efficient schedule possible. The
complex scheduling algorithms include job priority, currently running jobs,
route sheet times, labor force, off days, performance factor, material receiving
offsets, alternate work centers ...
Using OmniBarPro to collect time and attendance records, a payroll can often
be run in less than 10 minutes. The efficiency and accuracy of using OmniBarPro
far exceeds manually entering time card data.
