Material and Production Planning |
|
The VISIBILITY.net Material &
Production Planning suite provides the ability to match
supply with demand at each stage of the product lifecycle.
In addition, the suite provides the ability to manage
production and material and resource requirements using
input from forecasting, Material Requirements Planning (MRP)
and Capacity Requirements Planning (CRP) to generate and
manage supply in relation to demand requirements. This suite
provides organizations with a solution that improves the
efficiency of the procurement and planning process. |
|
|
|
The VISIBILITY.net Master Production Schedule (MPS) is used
to specify demand, independent from sales orders and
forecasts, to drive the MRP process. Multiple named
forecasts can be maintained for consumption by MRP.
Forecasts may be specified for high level family items. The
MPS process can be run as a simulation or as an actual run,
and allows for optional direct entry of planned orders.

To
meet this objective, the VISIBILITY.net suite provides
partner self-service access to key collaboration data.
The Supplier Portal process is designed to help optimize the
business procurement process, significantly reducing the
overhead involved and achieving the best value for
purchasing.
The Supplier Portal gives companies and vendors the tools to
collaboratively manage the procurement process from
requisitions, to quotation, and finally through to goods
receipt. Internal users are able to create purchase
requisitions for Maintenance, Repair and Operations (MRO)
items or production parts via a simple web based form. The
purchasing team is able to quickly take purchase
requisitions and either convert them to purchase orders, or
publish them online to selected vendors as a Request for
Quote (RFQ). The Supplier Portal lets vendors access
selected data in order to provide online quotes, updated
price schedules, part lead time information and delivery
promises. The Supplier Portal provides buyers with tools to
analyze vendor responses for the best balance of price and
delivery performance. It supports the use of reverse
auctions where the company determines the method of purchase
cost management that is appropriate.
