JobOps — Job
Shop Planning
Job Planning Somewhere between the
creating the quote, entering the sales order,
and completing the job, lies the responsibility
of Job Planning or Production Control. Verifying
the accuracy of the router, the bill of materials,
determining material availability, notifying
purchasing of shortages, checking production
schedules to see if resources are available
to meet the required ship dates . . .
This
is a critical step in the work flow of your
operations. Potential problems identified
now can avoid costly mistakes during production.
Communication
How do you tie it all together?
How does sales order entry notify Production
Control that a firm order is now ready for
production? Typical manufacturing capacity
planning software handles production well,
but often lacks an efficient communication
system between work groups and departments.
With JobOps job shop tracking software
and the MAS 90 or MAS 200 Business Alerts Module,
communications between your different work groups
can be automated.

JobOps tracks status changes to the work tickets.
When a status change is detected by the Business
Alerts module, it automatically sends and e-mail
to the next person in line responsible for the job.
In other words, as soon as the sales order is entered,
Production Control is immediately notified that they
can begin checking the order before the job is released
for work. |

Tracking of Original, Revised, and Actual Costs
With capabilities beyond simple job logging and tracking software, JobOps is
an integrated ERP and MRP system, combining the features of manufacturing enterprise
resource planning software with flexible budgeting software for manufacturing
firms.
JobOps also allows you to track the impact on job costs that result from necessary
Production Control changes. The estimated job costs from materials, labor and
services that were entered either as a quote or a sales order can be tracked
against the revisions made by production control. When work on the job begins,
the actual costs are tracked separately from the original estimates and the revised
estimates.
The result is that if your profits have been less than expected, you now have
better visibility as to where the issues lie. Is estimating being overly optimistic
about costs? Is Production Control unrealistic about how much work can get done
in a day? Or, are the actual production operations not running as efficiently
as possible? Using JobOps to compare the original costs from your estimators
to the revised costs of production control to the actual costs reported from
the job gives you better visibility and more management control to improve your
operations. |
