Advanced Planning with wayRTS - production planning and scheduling

The powerful real-time APS software wayRTS supports companies in production planning and scheduling across all value-creation stages. With wayRTS, planning becomes transparent and enables users to make simple interventions with arbitrarily automatable planning support.

Transparency in the supply chain

The high-performance realtime APS (advanced planning & scheduling) software wayRTS (Real Time Simulation) assists companies with production planning and control of all value-creation levels. With wayRTS, planning becomes transparent, which allows users to make simple interventions with automatic planning support.

The modeling of production processes and seamless integration and synchronization of other value-creating processes such as in the pre-production phase (design, planning, work preparation) are possible thanks to the flexible, main memory-based data structure of wayRTS. And all this in real time.

The same data structure is used for rough and fine planning, which means that breaks between different planning levels are a thing of the past. This is how wayRTS creates the ideal prerequisite for exploiting business potential in the supply chain: great adherence to schedules and productivity with market-appropriate throughput times and optimal inventories.

Optimized Production Planning: waySuite in Use at MAN Energy Solutions

Transparent Processes and Adherence to Schedules – at MAN Energy Solutions, it pays off that planning has been optimized using software for many years. Production planning and staff scheduling, as well as supplier and material management, have most recently been further improved with AI-supported automation.

Integrated production and project planning at plant manufacturer Grenzebach Group

Mechanical and plant engineering today has a complexity that makes it necessary to plan with software support. In the reference video, Moritz Ückert, Vice President Supply Chain at Grenzebach Group, and Christian Zilch, Planning Specialist at Grenzebach, describe very impressively how they set up their organization as well as production and project planning in order to satisfy their customers with optimal use of resources. Under these conditions, the introduction of software such as valantic waySuite was absolutely necessary for Grenzebach.

Functional Properties and Technical Flow

In-memory data storage enables the excellent planning performance of wayRTS in real time, even with very large volumes of data as occur in large production, especially with multi-plant processes. The efficiency of your planning team will increase substantially with wayRTS.

With the unique linking of any degree of automation, modern visualization, and interactive real-time planning, wayRTS enables production planning according to the whitebox-APS approach: Here the concern is the linking of optimization algorithms to the planner’s knowledge gained from experience, the transparent display of the optimization result, and interactive interventions of the planner in case of critical planning situation. Here, anything is possible, from automated optimization to visual-interactive planning. Regardless of the individual degree of automation, the planning and control work can be reduced in every case.

The functional advantages and basic technologies of wayRTS as APS 4.0 already meet today’s requirements, which companies will encounter again and again on the way top Industrie 4.0.

  • Planning with real-time processing and scenario technology
  • Planning support can be automated at will
  • In-memory technology for quick data access via the main memory
  • Optimization with real-time synchronization
  • Visual, interactive planning tools

wayRTS Simplifies Planning & Control - While the degree of automation lies in your hands.

Transparency in planning and control

Starting from need-based provision of services, wayRTS offers complete transparency with a view to the entire order network thanks to state-of-the-art visualization and filter possibilities. Of course the reference to the customer order is retained at all times.
Thanks to the excellent graphic preparation and context-sensitive scaling, the planner can always keep an eye on essential information. This includes flexible and individually-configurable views and dynamic filter functions (for example, with respect to the critical path).

Maximum transparency in the supply chain cockpit

With the supply chain cockpit, the planner can ascertain the planning situation at a glance and – across several aggregation levels – analyze it down to the smallest detail. Individually-parameterizable alert functions direct your view to the essential. In addition to logistical variables, value and cost points of view are also evaluated in the planning.

Visual and interactive planning

The visualization functions provide the basis for interactive planning, with which capacities, orders, and throughput times can be adjusted with drag and drop. With the real-time capability of wayRTS, the effect of the interventions is visible immediately across all production levels and easy to trace.

Any degree of automation

All planning steps can be automated with wayRTS – depending on your company’s requirements. From automatic synchronization of order networks to the automatic availability check for new customer orders with ATP (Available-to-Promise) and CTP (Capable-to-Promise) in real time, on through to a comprehensive optimization of the entire stock of orders with respect to capacities, inventories, and dates: Nothing is left out of consideration here.

Automation and optimization of regular tasks

There is always optimization potential in production planning, and in conjunction with this also in demand or procurement planning and in S&OP. waySuite enables you to recognize and exploit this potential. You can use waySuite to reduce throughput times, inventories, and set-up times, and also to reduce the effort required for planning. AI handles the routine tasks.
You should not have to deal with processing missing parts or backorders: waySuite automatically resolves conflicts with its intelligent algorithms. By automating regular planning tasks, you can focus on clarifying specific planning situations.

Quality standard of the APS software wayRTS

wayRTS was developed according to internationally-recognized quality standards (GAMP4). In addition to the technology, we make the appropriate services available to you: Our experts will introduce this standard APS software as a validated system.
