Dynafact Manufacturing System (DMS)

DMS logoReduce Waste and maximize Throughput by focusing on the true “Value Drivers” of your business! DMS models simple to very complex job shop environments and schedules thousands of work orders in minutes, enabling you to perform quick simulations in order to answer key production questions such as:

  1. Can we take on new work and meet the delivery commitments?
  2. Where and when are the bottlenecks?
  3. What is the cost/benefit of overcoming our bottlenecks?
  4. Do we have the capacity in our special skill sets that are required?
  5. What is the best recovery plan for a machine breakdown, rework and emergency work interruptions?
  6. How can we execute the best plan?
  7. What are our near term and long term resourcing requirements for both labor and equipment?
  8. Where do we stand on all our Projects?

You know the status of every project and every order so nothing can “slip through the cracks”. Quickly reprioritize work based on Emergency Orders, Rework and other unplanned activities and measure against established baselines.

Who is it for? Dynafact’s DMS technology is an excellent tool for both Tactical Planning AND Operational Planning. Particularly important in Dynamic “Engineer and Make to Order” environments, where sometimes, only partial information is known up front. It is these environments that can benefit the most. Plan your work and work your plan with situational awareness, all known information at your fingertips is critical for success. Learn to act quickly to unplanned events.

You see what is affected and by how much and then quickly develop a recovery plan that meets all of your demands. The DMS technology was designed from the ground up in a “Joint Action Development” with a diverse group of 'Job Shop' professionals. These manufacturers and MRO facilities were unable to find a robust enough solution in the market so they turned to the experience and expertise of Dynafact.

The result is a solution that has been driven by real world manufacturers NOT by developers with theories on how you should run your business.

DMS empowers you to thin-slice mounds of data and focus in on the critical paths of production and your bottlenecks. Unlimited multiple calendar options provide you with the power to quickly and accurately simulate production to perform “what if” scenarios. DMS even recommends Over Time options for best throughput results.
