If Your ERP Is Running Production Planning, You Already Know the Problem

Schedules That Don't Survive Monday Morning

 

Your ERP builds a plan based on what should happen. The moment a machine goes down, a supplier is late, or a rush order arrives, that plan is obsolete. Planners spend their days rebuilding schedules manually instead of managing production.

Capacity You Can't See Until It's Too Late

 

ERP systems plan against theoretical capacity. Advanced planning and scheduling software models your real constraints, machines, labor, materials, sequence-dependent setups and builds schedules you can actually execute with finite capacity scheduling.

Delivery Commitments Made Without Visibility

 

Quoting lead times, promising delivery dates, and accepting new orders all require knowing what your production floor can actually absorb. Without finite-capacity scheduling, every commitment is a guess.

 APS Is the Missing Layer Between Your ERP and Your Shop Floor

Advanced planning and scheduling software doesn't replace your ERP, it completes it. PlanetTogether is production scheduling software that integrates directly with SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics, Epicor, Infor, and Plex to take your ERP's data and translate it into constraint-aware, executable production schedules. The result is a plan your team can actually follow and adjust in real time when conditions change. That's what differentiates purpose-built APS software from a generic ERP planning module.

SureStart Implementation

Live in 30–45 Days. Fixed Scope. Proven Onboarding.

Most manufacturers delay APS implementation because they expect a multi-year project. PlanetTogether's SureStart implementation model is different, a structured, fixed-scope onboarding path designed to get your scheduling team live and generating value within 30 to 45 days, at a fixed professional services fee with no open-ended consulting costs. It's production planning software your team will actually adopt.

 Advanced Planning & Scheduling Built for Manufacturing Complexity

Advanced production scheduling capabilities engineered for real-world plant operations.

Finite Capacity Scheduling

 

Build production schedules that reflect your real constraints, machine capacity, labor availability, sequence-dependent changeovers, and material availability, not idealized assumptions. True constraint-based scheduling that your shop floor can actually execute.

quality-control icon 
What-If Scenario Planning

 

Test the impact of a new order, a supplier delay, or a machine failure before committing to a plan. Compare scenarios side by side and make decisions based on what will actually happen to your production, not what you hope will happen.

Constraint & Bottleneck Visibility

 

Identify your production bottlenecks before they become delivery failures. Real-time visibility lets planners resolve issues proactively rather than reacting at shift start.

cycle icon 
Scheduling Optimization

 

Automatically sequence production to minimize changeovers, reduce downtime, maximize throughput, and improve on-time delivery, across single-plant and multi-plant environments.

ERP & MES Integration

 

Two-way data integration with your existing ERP and MES systems. PlanetTogether reads demand, inventory, and order data and writes executable schedules back, no manual data entry, no disconnected spreadsheets.

 

 How Manufacturers Use PlanetTogether to Improve Scheduling Performance 

Food Production

25% Increase in Production Output. 30% Reduction in Changeover Times.

 

A snack manufacturer replaced manual Excel scheduling with PlanetTogether APS, unlocking throughput improvements and changeover reduction within the first months of implementation.

Printing & Packaging

Optimized Production Sequencing Across Complex Packaging Lines.

 

A leading packaging manufacturer implemented advanced planning and scheduling software to manage sequencing complexity across multiple packaging lines, improving on-time delivery performance.

 

Beverage Manufacturing

Scheduling Time Cut in Half. New Customer Segments Unlocked.

 

After acquiring a new facility, a coffee producer implemented PlanetTogether APS, cutting scheduling time in half and gaining the capacity visibility needed to pursue and win new business.
