Real-Time, Multi-User Architecture

Keep your whole company aligned with one plan -- one always-up-to-date version of the truth. Only PlanetTogether allows multiple users to work together in a real-time planning system. From order scheduling, to replanning, to shop floor updates, updates are immediate for clear, streamlined decision making.

Fast, In-Memory Planning & Scheduling Engine

PlanetTogether runs in the computer’s RAM memory, not in a database. This is crucial for fast rescheduling. Run schedule optimizations in seconds if your factory is low to medium volume. For high order volume plans (tens to hundreds of thousands of orders), you can still get plans in minutes not hours. This means faster customer response and more efficient production.

Flexible, Multi-Factor Optimization

With easy to use PlanetTogether Optimization “sliders”, you have the flexibility to take several competing goals into account simultaneously.

Drive production batching efficiencies while also prioritizing important orders and hitting ship dates.

You can easily experiment too, seeing the impact of production management policies on projected inventory, on-time delivery, cash flow, and even custom metrics.

Planning + Scheduling + Execution
...all in one App

PlanetTogether can take you all the way from customer demand to MRP explosion to, capacity planning, to detailed scheduling, to dispatch and execution all in one single app.

This means better communication and smoother operations from order to ship.

Planning & Scheduling Automation -- with Manual Overrides

Start with manual scheduling, or capture your production constraints and policies in the system to automate the schedule generation process. Once you have the data you need, you can create schedules in seconds not hours. This frees your planners to use their experience to improve the business and make the tough decisions that only humans can make. Planners can override resource assignments, sequences and priorities if needed, achieving the perfect balance between automation and expert control.

Multi-Plant, Multi-Warehouse Synchronization

If you have multiple plants or warehouses you can run PlanetTogether in multisite mode. This provides your planners cross-site visibility and synchronizes cross-site dependencies such as intermediate material supplies or alternate production facilities. You can run your network of facilities as one highly efficient “superplant”.
