Increased competition is forcing businesses to deliver products faster and with greater flexibility, while simultaneously reducing operating costs. JDA Sequencing intelligently balances manufacturing, material usage and service objectives based on predefined strategic priorities.

How does it solve your business challenges?

When capacity is finite, manufacturers must make the right decisions about which products to make, when and in what quantities. JDA Sequencing takes sequencing and scheduling to the next level by enabling you to simultaneously balance customer service, cost and utilization while respecting complex constraints and rules. In both single and linked multi-stage production environments, the solution considers resources, product attributes and their interdependencies at each stage.

What are the benefits?

Optimized plant operations
Management of both material and resource constraints
Production smoothing across multiple resources
Robust modeling of complex production environments

Why JDA?

JDA Sequencing produces a globally optimal solution for each manufacturing problem, based on user-defined scheduling objectives. These objectives, such as on-time delivery and resource utilization, can be modeled to reflect manufacturing strategies at each location. The solution’s solve times are fast, generating schedules in minutes rather than hours, allowing schedulers to quickly generate scenarios to evaluate the operational impact of events and new strategies.

What Customers Are Saying

The implementation of the JDA solution has also taken [James Hardie's] carrier relationships to a whole new level. By allowing the system to ensure that the lowest cost, best-performing carriers always have first right of refusal, the company has been able to maximize freight savings and service. Additionally, the transportation planners are able to shift time that would have previously been spent manually planning the loads to performing more proactive carrier management activities and building stronger logistics infrastructure to support the growing business.
