Qu’est-ce que le logiciel pour la gestion de la production
The best known software for production management is the ERP (which stands for Enterprise Resource Planning). This type of software, as the name implies, is used to plan the company’s resources and integrate the relevant business processes of a company (sales, purchases, warehouse management, accounting, etc.).
Over the years, these software solutions have been supported by specific software that are able to significantly increase the effectiveness of the related areas of expertise.
Thus the APS or Advanced Planning and Scheduling software have supplanted the production planning and scheduling operations, giving greater view on the Supply Chain, simulation and forecasting capacity, finite capacity reasoning and more.
In recent years, DDMRP (or Demand Driven Material Requirements Planning) solutions have also been added. These software are extremely useful for industrial companies to plan the materials procurement in a modern and advanced way with the use of techniques that allow to reduce waste, excesses and forecast errors.
