SAP Supply Chain Management

Long term derivation of staffing requirements in the production industry

Dynamic adjusting of capacities and finit planning of production with SAP SCM

Bildmodul

Can you imagine a system that independently determines which shift programmes will be necessary at which times in the future on the basis of the order situation? That carries out finite planning of your production orders on the basis of the capacities determined in this way? And that, despite this complexity, provides you with all important information at any time?

We have developed and implemented this solution together with our customer, based on SAP SCM. In doing so, we have extended the SAP standard with intelligent functions and heuristics in order to be able to exploit the full potential of SAP SCM and provide our customer with decisive competitive advantages.

With the Supply Chain Management solution, SAP offers a tool that is able to map, plan and optimise the entire supply chain. The solution is based on LiveCache database technology, which keeps the data in the main memory and thus enables greater planning flexibility through fast access. Master and transaction data is supplied from the connected ERP system via the CIF real-time interface.

cimt services in SAP Supply Chain Management

cimt ag supports you in the implementation and adaptation of SAP SCM to your needs with in-depth knowledge and extensive project experience in the topics of sales planning, production and detailed planning and global availability checking. Sales planning, which incidentally uses an internal business warehouse, enables the creation of a precise sales plan using various forecasting strategies and macros tailored to your needs. In order to plan the requirements determined in this way on schedule and with optimal use of resources, various planning scenarios can be mapped in both production and detailed planning using heuristics.

A special feature here is the possibility of finite planning, which takes into account the actual available capacity of a resource. The global availability check is ultimately able to check material availabilities across plants or systems. The aspect of integration between the individual components in the SCM system is clearly in the foreground and enables coordinated planning of the supply chain.

Our conclusion

SAP SCM is able to efficiently map even complex planning environments through extensive standard functions. We can support you here and ensure a smooth introduction, e.g. with our starter packages. In addition, our expertise in adapting and expanding the SAP standard enables you to cover specific requirements and thus create what may be the decisive competitive advantage.
