The Right Resources: Start Designing a Planning & Scheduling Program

The Right Resources: Start Designing a Planning & Scheduling Program

If you need to implement a new planning and scheduling program, you’re probably discovering that the task can be rather daunting.

But there are ways to achieve an environment that will support a planning and scheduling program that works with what you already have in place and takes into account what your team is able to manage throughout implementation and beyond. If you take a closer look at what you already have, putting the final touches on a successful planning and scheduling program may not really be that big a beast to tackle.

A Strong Shop Floor: Successful Planning & Scheduling Secret Ingredient

A Strong Shop Floor: Successful Planning & Scheduling Secret Ingredient

An hour long presentation by Ken Arthur, Performance Consultant, GPAllied

Our production personnel can be the eyes and ears of the maintenance group if they are trained to know how equipment fails, what to look for, and how to report abnormalities. Operators are critical to helping an organization achieve early identification of problems, which then allows more time to plan, schedule, coordinate and execute work to prevent costly failures. Early identification of problems is one of the keys to planning & scheduling success, and a strong "Shop Floor" is oftentimes the missing ingredient.

Cost of Change, and Why Planning Matters

For most products (other than software-only products), any change from the original intent during development costs money (and extends schedule), and the cost of any particular change (along with the time impact caused by the change) increases with time . This increase in cost and schedule may not intuitively obvious, and as such may obfuscate the real reason that proper product development planning is so critical to the success of the product development.

Introduction

Computerized maintenance management system (CMMS) scheduling, specifically weekly scheduling, should be a three-step procedure: (1) select ‘Generate Schedule,' (2) specify the week start date and (3) click ‘Run.' This scheduling feature should be resident within every CMMS product and selectable from the work order main screen. A CMMS can read an entire maintenance backlog within 60 seconds to produce a resource-leveled, weekly maintenance schedule. You might wonder why this has never been implemented (me, too!). I would think that every organization - and industry - would want something like this.
