Is Your Production Planning Slowing Down Your Business?
When material requirements and plant schedules rely on disconnected spreadsheets and manual guesswork, delays multiply and carrying costs escalate.
Unexpected Material Shortages
Identify potential material shortages before they disrupt production schedules and cause costly machine downtime.
Manual Production Scheduling
Reduce repetitive planning work and coordinate production priorities more efficiently across lines and shifts.
Excess Inventory or Stockouts
Align material requirements with production plans and demand signals so working capital isn't locked in dead stock.
Delayed Work Orders
Streamline work-order creation and improve visibility into production priorities without manual paperwork lag.
Unpredictable Customer Demand
Use AI-assisted forecasting to support better production and material decisions during volatile demand cycles.
Disconnected Planning Processes
Improve coordination between inventory, procurement, production, and order fulfilment in one unified workflow.
One Smarter Workflow for Production Planning and Material Requirements
PMDG Technologies delivers configurable automation systems that bridge engineering, procurement, and shop-floor execution.
1. Automated Material Requirements Planning (MRP)
Calculate material requirements from production plans, bills of materials (BOMs), inventory availability, and lead times. Help planners identify what materials are needed and when.
- Multi-level BOM explosion and lead-time offsetting
- Automated purchase requisition generation based on safety stock
2. Intelligent Production Scheduling
Organize production schedules around demand, capacity, priorities, and material availability to help teams coordinate work more effectively.
- Finite capacity scheduling across machines, work centers, and tooling
- Dynamic priority adjustments when rush customer orders arrive
3. Automated Work-Order Creation
Generate or prepare work orders from approved production plans, with the required quantities, materials, and planned dates.
- Instant work-order issuance with attached routing & drawings
- Direct ERP synchronization to avoid duplicate data entry
4. AI Demand Forecasting and Shortage Prediction
Analyze demand patterns and available operational data to forecast requirements, flag potential shortages, and help planners evaluate production scenarios.
- Predictive lead-time volatility and supplier delay probability
- What-if scenario modeling before committing factory capacity
5. Real-Time Shop Floor Tracking & WIP Visibility
Track work-in-progress (WIP) across assembly lines, detect machine bottlenecks, and maintain continuous visibility from raw material dispatch to finished goods.
- Live cycle-time tracking and stage-gate bottleneck detection
- Automated delay escalation and instant rescheduling recommendations
6. Dynamic Safety Stock & Inventory Optimization
Replace static quarterly min-max formulas with dynamic buffer calculations that adjust to vendor lead-time variability and seasonal production velocity.
- Lead-time volatility buffering to avoid stockouts and dead inventory
- Multi-echelon inventory balancing across central stores and line-side bins
From Production Demand to an Actionable Plan
A transparent, automated four-step journey connecting customer commitments to factory floor dispatch.
Capture demand
Bring in customer orders, demand forecasts, and production requirements from ERP or sales channels into a unified backlog.
Calculate material needs
Evaluate BOMs, current on-hand inventory, vendor lead times, and purchasing requirements to determine precise net quantities.
Build production plans
Organize machine schedules, work orders, operational priorities, and available labor capacity for balanced throughput.
Predict and respond
Flag potential shortages ahead of time and use forecast insights to review and dynamically adjust schedules before lines stall.
Improve Production Visibility. Make Better Planning Decisions.
Purpose-built for manufacturing leadership who require dependable schedules, reduced carrying costs, and transparent line operations.
Less Manual Planning
Reduce repetitive coordination and spreadsheet-based work. Planners spend less time fixing broken Excel formulas and more time optimizing plant capacity.
Fewer Planning Surprises
Surface potential material constraints earlier. Early shortage detection gives procurement teams the days or weeks required to expedite stock.
Better Production Decisions
Use demand and capacity information to prioritize high-value work orders, sequence production runs efficiently, and protect delivery promises.
Improved Operational Visibility
Connect planning information across sales, inventory, procurement, and the plant floor so all department heads work from one single source of truth.
Lower Carrying Costs & Dead Stock
Free up working capital by trimming unnecessary buffer inventory and synchronizing purchase orders to actual production consumption rather than crude batch averages.
Higher On-Time Delivery (OTIF) Rates
Protect customer delivery promises with realistic capacity validation, dynamic bottleneck avoidance, and proactive tracking of supplier lead-time shifts.
Built for Complex Manufacturing Environments
PMDG Technologies engineers dependable automation systems with rigorous architecture, enterprise ERP connectivity, and zero operational disruption.
Multi-System Integration
Battle-tested connectors across SAP, Oracle, Dynamics 365, Epicor, legacy on-premise databases, and custom REST APIs.
Security & Data Governance
End-to-end data encryption, ISO 27001 readiness, role-based access control (RBAC), and full compliance with enterprise data policies.
Structured Implementation
A low-risk 4-stage process: Gap Analysis → Architectural Mapping → Factory Acceptance Pilot → Full Scaled Deployment.
