Campaign & Batch Planning

Revolutionize your manufacturing operations with our advanced campaign optimization models. We solve the "Campaign vs. Changeover" tension inherent in batch processing. Our engine integrates capacity planning, material requirements, and equipment sequencing to generate optimal production campaigns. We mathematically determine the ideal run length to balance inventory holding costs against the high cost of sequence-dependent changeovers.

Key Benefits

  • Increase production throughput through optimized campaign sequencing
  • Reduce sequence-dependent setup times (e.g., Color Changeovers)
  • Improve equipment utilization and reduce bottlenecks
  • Minimize work-in-process (WIP) inventory and cycle times
  • Enable reliable delivery schedules with finite capacity planning

Use Cases

  • Multi-line production scheduling with shared resources
  • Campaign planning for long-run efficiency (Minimizing Changeovers)
  • Batch process optimization for blending and compounding
  • Capacity planning and bottleneck identification
  • Maintenance scheduling integration with production planning

Implementation Approach

We start by mapping your production processes, equipment capabilities, and material flows. Our team develops custom optimization models that integrate with your MES and ERP systems, providing real-time scheduling recommendations. The solution includes advanced analytics for performance monitoring and continuous improvement, with user-friendly interfaces for production planners.
