Exact JobBOSS 11 To Help Manufacturers Effectively Schedule Jobs

Exact Software, a provider of solutions that help businesses better serve their customers by integrating their organisation through optimised processes and structured critical knowledge, has announced that the latest iteration of its JobBOSS product will allow manufacturers to meet tight, ever-changing deadlines while increasing customer satisfaction, providing companies with a competitive advantage that is especially valuable during times of economic uncertainty. The ability to more accurately schedule and reschedule jobs as well as reallocate resources and work centres will have a profound impact on an organisation’s ability to meet customer demands by fulfilling delivery promises as quoted.

Exact JobBOSS 11 makes it easy to provide customers with projected delivery during the quoting process. It helps to manage work centre capacity down to the shift level and override by date. It allows handling of the shop schedule based on material availability.

In addition, ShopBOSS advanced scheduler, available with JobBOSS 11, includes an interactive dashboard designed and built specifically for the production scheduler. This dashboard provides visibility into scheduled late jobs, missed job starts, jobs running over estimates, and jobs waiting on materials, allowing the scheduler to immediately address issues needing attention.

“Manufacturers are faced with unique challenges, particularly when it comes to complex assembly work,” said David Lechleitner, senior product expert of Exact JobBOSS. “If one component is delayed or a few members of the workforce aren’t available at just the right time, job completion dates and profit margins suffer. JobBOSS 11 employs a demand-driven manufacturing approach for overcoming these bottlenecks, improving the result of the bottom line.”

JobBOSS 11 includes numerous enhancements, including enhanced material linking, variable capacity per shift per day, improved performance of global scheduling, increased visibility into potential scheduling problems, and employee job assignment capabilities.
