[Case Study] Production Scheduler Yamaha Corporation

Reflect achievement information in the production plan as needed! Shorten manufacturing lead time, work-in-progress inventory, and production planning time by one-third.

In the circuit board assembly process that started operations in April 2008, due to the production of a wide variety of low volumes and the complexity of the production process, a tremendous amount of time was spent on planning. As the planning became more complicated, the manufacturing lead time increased, and inventory tended to be high. To shorten planning time and reduce waste through efficient planning, the decision was made to implement "Asprova." This resulted in a reduction of manufacturing lead time, work-in-progress inventory, and production planning time by one-third, as well as a decrease in equipment downtime through setup optimization, proactive management, and the elimination of paper-based work instructions. [Purpose of Implementation] - Reduction of planning time and alleviation of planning workload - Shortening of manufacturing lead time - Prevention of overproduction and waste in inventory - Sharing of planning skills and know-how *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
