Stories
Joe Van Wagner, Production
Manager for Cummins Engine, selected Resource Manager to assist
in scheduling labor and machine resources. "We are in the midst
of changing our corporate system and neither (old or new) system
will handle job shop management the way we run our shops. We
need a flexible tool for planning and scheduling labor out several
months. In addition, we need to schedule day-day machine operations
per master schedule. The Resource Manager for Excel is the perfect
fit for a stop-gap solution for these areas."
Cummins Engine has 33 locations around
U.S. and accessories engines for custom applications. According
to Mr. Van Wagner, "We like the fact that the Resource Manager
has a Bill-Of-Resource that can include the tool, labor, and machine
requirements for scheduling the shop. With our old legacy system
from Xerox, we had only basic parts and engine model information
for scheduling, now we have detailed man-hours and routings available.
We like the ability, with the Resource Manager, to define load and
select a realistic promise date for our customers -- we have already
seen an increase in customer satisfaction." Joe continues,
"The flexibility of the product is pretty fantastic. We are
able to download our Bills-Of-Material from the AS400 directly into
the Resource Manager, add labor and routings, and immediately generate
master schedules. In addition to master scheduling, we make parts
for engines and distribution and can use the Resource Manager to
schedule production in this make-to-stock application. The neat
graphing capability gives us an excellent visual on what is happening,
or needs to happen".
