The assembly line sequencing and scheduling problem in the auto
industry is large and complex. Optessa MLS can generate near optimal
solution to these complex problems.
Strategic benefits
Align demand and delivery
Reduce order to delivery lead time
Reduce finished goods inventories at dealers and
system
Fulfill each order: improve market share
Improved
flexibility and reduced response times
Operational benefits
Evenly favorable solution that considers
all rules and constraints
Reduced costs: e.g. paint purges
Improved FIFO conformance: reduced buffers of
painted bodies
Constraint violations are smoothed and not bunched
Reduced parts and in-process inventories
Better synchronization with suppliers and feeder
lines
Options / features smoothing and leveling
(“Heijunka”)
Re-sequencing with a bias to stability
Improved accuracy and reduced sequencing process
times
