SigmaSCHEDULE
Dynamic Scheduling for Fabricators
Shopwide Accuracy, Instant Flexibility
SigmaSCHEDULE brings true dynamic scheduling unique in the fabrication industry. Accurately schedule projects with nested programs, parts assigned across many sheets, multiple cutting processes, and secondary operations such as bending and welding. The software can be configured for your specific business needs, but can also fully reschedule the entire operations at any point in the day based on current production capacity, job priority, and work to be completed.
Scheduling Forward, Backward, and Pre-Scheduling
SigmaSCHEDULE stand alone software that processes all scheduling requests from SigmaMRP and SigmaQUOTE. Users can schedule forward (FIFO/as soon as possible), or backward from the due date (just in time). Estimators can use preschedule jobs to ensure delivery dates can be met before accepting the order.
Schedule every step of production
- All production operations are scheduled based on job priority and due date as well as machine capacity
- Nests (containing parts from many different jobs) are scheduled and operation dependencies are maintained
- All jobs can be rescheduled multiple times per day for the most efficient schedule
Pre-schedule jobs
- Jobs can be scheduled before accepting the order to verify ability to make the due date
- Jobs from both SigmaMRP and SigmaQUOTE can be scheduled
- Schedule everything from simple parts to large complex assemblies
Production overview
- Easily identify the jobs that will be late, and how late they will be, based on the schedule
- Convenient production status indicators for each job
- Quickly place jobs and hold and remove them from the schedule
