Digital Twins for a more Sustainable Supply Chain
As the expectations for sustainable and ethical supply chains grow among consumers and stakeholders, it becomes essential for companies to ensure responsible sourcing, reduce their carbon footprint, and uphold ethical labor practices. Achieving transparency throughout the supply chain is crucial to enable the transition to more sustainable practices. However, this can be a complex process […]
How to Cross the Bridge Between Tactical Planning and Detail Scheduling?
It is crucial to clearly establish the planning parameters that will guide both tactical planning and scheduling. These parameters encompass various factors, including production capacity, lead times, resource availability, and any applicable constraints. Utilizing software tools that allow for running “what if” scenarios at both levels, using the same parameters but on a different scale, […]
Why is it manufacturing moving towards the use of process digital twins?
Why is it manufacturing moving towards the use of process digital twins? Initially, it was all about product digital twin, a simulation model of how to produce the product itself. But collaboration across the entire virtual environment is required to optimize the whole process. A process digital twin looks at the process beyond a single […]
Demand Planning and Production Planning. What should you look for?
There are three pillars that I would like to mention that must exist in a solution, so it is useful, easy and quick to use. Pillar 1: Data Governance. We saw too many solutions implementations, where all the solutions fail due to data. This is completely understandable, as data for analytic purposes comes from different […]
Digital Twin Add Insights and Planning capacities
Market tools usually help in dealing with everyday transactions. They help plan and analyze the procedures you already have in place. But what happens when you are willing to find a way to improve your processes? Generally, you will set up beta tests of your procedures, and analyze the outcomes. These on-site beta tests are […]
Is it possible to minimize Supply Chain Disruptions?
To minimize supply chain disruptions, we need to be able to quickly react to whatever happens out of the plan. Disruptions occur with unplanned situations, something very frequent along the supply chain. The delays in raw material, the variations in the demand and the lack of labor are some of the most usual problems to […]
