Operations Scheduling
Context and stakes
As a real communication channel between planning and execution, the scheduling of operations allow to the optimize the sequence of tasks performed on limited resources in terms of capacity and respecting the specific business rules to each industry. The main challenge is therefore to provide the decision-maker with a realistic solution that can serve as a basis for refining the effective scheduling.
A good scheduling solution is characterized by its ability to integrate business rules and interact dynamically with the user who must be able to test scenarios or manually adjust the proposed results using relevant indicators.
Our answer
To address this need, Redlog offers SimTank, SimLab and SimCap generic modules for operation scheduling that use combinatorial optimization methods and heuristics adapted to solving complex problems.
In addition to providing decision-making support to schedulers, Redlog solutions include simulation capabilities to quickly test execution sequences and/or resource allocations.
