As competitive pressure and manufacturing complexity increase, many manufacturing management teams are adding advanced planning and scheduling (see consultant's guide) to their business systems. The addition often saves them the cost, time, and disruption of replacing their business systems to improve competitiveness. They use their valuable business system data, sophisticated advanced planning and scheduling what-if features, and the improved visibility and flexibility provided by the technology to develop policies that simultaneously: 

  • Increase sales revenues
  • Lower manufacturing costs
  • Tie-up less capital in their businesses

However, as with any new technology, there are bound to be changes to achieve the benefits. With change comes risk. Often, manufacturing management teams seek help from third parties (e.g., consultants) to assess the benefits and manage the risks of adding advanced planning and scheduling to their businesses.
