Smaller lot sizes, increasing variability and shorter product life cycles tend to make planning and scheduling more complex, resulting in increased order lead times, stock levels and work in progress. Responsive supply chain networks can compensate for these effects, in particular by more tightly integrating engineering with supply chain and manufacturing and provide real world feedback on supply chain performance to planning and scheduling. This shortens time to manufacturing and provides the opportunity to reschedule continuously based on actual manufacturing progress. Industry specific planning methodologies such as Kanban, Lean or product wheels also help manufacturers to be more responsive and efficient. Key according to Mr. Mast, and we agree with him, is the ability to:

-plan and schedule taking detailed ‘real-world’ resource constraints into account,

-apply exceptions to rules for specific products or resources to cater for personalization and specific order needs,

-having the capability to analyze causes of delays or shortages,

-adapt scheduling continuously to reflect actual demand and plant conditions,  and reconcile schedules to meet priorities,

-provide optimized plans and schedules to maximize efficiency
