Everything Your Shop Floor Needs. Nothing It Doesn't.
Purpose-built scheduling intelligence for manufacturing — Gantt charts, conflict detection, multi-shift scheduling, operator management, and mobile operator views. No ERP bloat.
Six Features That Replace Your Whiteboard
Each one solves a specific, expensive problem that manual scheduling creates on your shop floor.
GHorizontal Gantt Chart
Machines on the Y-axis, time on the X-axis — the universal mental model for production scheduling. Zoom from hourly to monthly views. Pan, scroll, and search across your entire shop floor. Filter by machine, work center, job status, or priority level.
!Real-Time Conflict Detection
When two jobs or operations are assigned to the same machine during overlapping time periods, both blocks highlight red with a conflict indicator. Warnings by default — not hard blocks. You may intentionally overbook to account for expected early completion.
SMulti-Shift Scheduling
Define Day, Swing, and Night shifts with configurable hours and days of week. View continuous 24-hour timelines, manage shift handoffs, and track what is happening on the shop floor across all shifts. Tier-gated: Workshop = 1 shift, Production = 2 shifts, Plant+ = 3 shifts.
OOperator Management
Track machine certifications, skill levels (Trainee/Qualified/Senior/Lead), and shift assignments for every operator. Match operators to jobs based on qualifications. Know who can run what machine — without phone calls to find out.
MMobile Operator Views
Operators access their job queue from any device via bookmarked tablet or phone link. See assigned jobs, tap to start, tap to complete — timestamps captured automatically. Real-time updates flow back to the manager's schedule view.
%OEE Analytics & Reporting
Utilization dashboards show scheduled vs. available time per machine and work center. OEE metrics (Availability x Performance x Quality) for Production tier and above. Bottleneck analysis identifies machines exceeding 90% utilization.
Built for Real Manufacturing Operations
Enterprise-grade platform capabilities without enterprise complexity or pricing.
Multi-Step Routing Templates
Define reusable operation sequences — Op 10: Mill, Op 20: Lathe, Op 30: Inspect. Apply templates to jobs with a single click. Each operation independently schedulable with directional connector lines.
Role-Based Access
Admin role with full control. Planner role with scheduling permissions. Viewer role for read-only access. Operator role for mobile job updates. Keep your team informed without risking schedule changes.
Work Center Organization
Group machines into logical work centers — CNC Mills, Lathes, Inspection. Filter the Gantt by work center. Utilization reporting aggregates at both machine and work center levels.
CSV Import & Export
Bulk import machines, jobs, and routing templates via CSV. Export schedules, utilization reports, and analytics. Workshop tier: 50 jobs/import. Production+: unlimited.
Rush Order Handling
Flag jobs as Rush priority — red color coding, floats to top of queues. Plant tier+ gets auto-resequencing and rush impact analysis showing all jobs bumped due to rush orders.
API Access
Plant tier: read-only API for integration with your systems. Enterprise tier: read/write API for full automation. Build custom integrations without manual data entry.
What We Don't Build
