Screens are tailored to each deployment. The problem ## What It Costs Today Plans for production, maintenance, projects and deliveries live in spreadsheets or in an ERP that ignores real capacity and constraints. They break on day one, and replanning is manual. How Fuuz solves it ## What Changes With Fuuz ### A platform capability Planning against dates and capacity is a platform capability, not a single product, so it applies to any process that needs it. ### Finite scheduling Equipment-level finite scheduling sequences orders against what each machine can actually do. ### Maintenance in the plan Depending on the deployment, the same schedule can include maintenance and other elements of production. ### Beyond the plant floor It is modular, so it reaches beyond the plant floor: customers have used it for shipping and transportation scheduling, and it can schedule integrations, workflows and other automated work. ### Plan meets actual Actual progress from execution feeds back into the plan, so it reflects what is really happening. ### Your planner Build exactly the planner your process needs with the application designer. Nothing about how you plan is off limits. What it connects to ## Works With What You Already Run Connects to ERP orders and routings, execution data, calendars, and material and labor availability. Everything it records lands in the [Enterprise UNS](https://www.fuuz.com/platform/data), so every other solution works from the same data. See [ERP integration](https://www.fuuz.com/solutions/erp-integration) and [shop-floor connectivity](https://www.fuuz.com/solutions/shop-floor-connectivity) for how those connections work. Who uses it ## Who Uses It ### Planners and schedulers Orders sequenced against real capacity, and what moved when plans change. ### Supervisors The plan for their area, updated with actual progress. ### Maintenance planners Planned work in the same schedule as production. ### Project and plant managers Dates and capacity across the processes they own. Results ## What Customers See ### Spreadsheets replaced Fuuz scheduling can eliminate the Excel spreadsheets planners use to sequence work, with schedules based on live data instead. ### One plan for everyone The floor and the office work from the same schedule, updated as conditions change. Questions ## Frequently Asked Questions What is advanced production scheduling (APS)?Scheduling that sequences work against real constraints, such as machines, labor, tooling and materials, and optimizes the order to reduce setups and meet due dates. Where do orders come from?From your ERP or from Fuuz, and results flow back when work completes. Does the schedule update when the floor changes?The schedule uses live data from the floor, so planners can re-sequence when machines go down or priorities change.
