The Challenge
The opportunity is to eliminate jobs started before the parts arrive, bays idle while work waits in the queue, and promise dates that slip with no early warning. The proposed workflow is source-linked, but the current operating baseline and financial value remain illustrative until validated with the client.
How It Works
- Reads the shop work order queue, bay and technician capacity and parts arrival dates.
- Sequences jobs to protect promised dates and keep bays loaded.
- Re-plans when a part slips and alerts the account owner before the customer calls.
What It Removes
- Jobs started before the parts arrive
- Bays idle while work waits in the queue
- Promise dates that slip with no early warning
