Production Management System

Production Management System is a complete suite of manufacturing software solutions and services for manufacturing and distribution companies. It is a Rich Internet Application developed on Adobe Air which connects to central server programmed in PHP. Since every thing is controlled from a centralized server it is easy for maintainance and operation. PMS can help you to extend enterprise and supply chain management system that incorporates front office, back office, engineering, manufacturing, distribution and business performance capabilities.

PMS supports following types of Manufacturing Models

 

  • Discrete : This is an order to production to make a specific (discrete) quantity of an assembly using a fixed routing and operations.
  • Project : These are jobs with Project and Task references. They are used in a Project Manufacturing environment.
  • Repetitive : Repetitive Schedules are the counterparts for Discrete jobs in a Repetitive Manufacturing environment where, assemblies are built on a continuous basis.
  • Flow : Flow Schedules are used in to make assemblies in a manufacturing environment that is influenced by a just-in-time (JIT) or apullsystem driven by customer orders. Flow Schedules are employed to run the production schedule when the Flow Manufacturing module is implemented.
  • Lot based : Lot based jobs can be used only if the Oracle Shop Floor Management module is implemented. As opposed to a Discrete job, a lot based job follows a network routing. In a network routing, the user can choose the next operation from a given set of options. This in turn will determine the series of operations the job moves through next.
  • Assemble-to-order : This is a job used to assemble items for a final assembly based on a customer order.
  • Configure-to-order : In this environment, the options and included items in a model appear on pick slips. Order pickers gather these options before shipping the order to the customer.

    Cost Transactions

    Discrete jobs can be costed using Standard or Average costing, depending on the Costing Method of the inventory organization. Similarly, labor, machine and outside resources can be costed as mentioned above.
