The Operational Challenge

Legacy Inefficiencies in Manufacturing

Manufacturing schedulers spend 20+ hours weekly assembling static Excel Gantt charts that collapse whenever machine downtime, tooling delays, or rush orders occur.

Without autonomous software intelligence, organizations face exponential operational labor drag, transcription error rates exceeding 8%, and compounding response delays that jeopardize enterprise SLAs.

Solution Architecture

How Fortiv Solves This Problem

Multi-Source Constraint Ingestion

Pulls ERP production orders, routing BOMs, machine tooling matrices, and operator skill certifications in real time.

Combinatorial Finite-Capacity Engine

Algorithms solve multi-objective optimization equations to minimize setup matrix changeover idle times.

Real-Time Dynamic Re-Sequencing

Re-balances line job queues in under 2 minutes when rush orders or unexpected machine breakdowns occur.

Line-Side Touch Dispatch

Pushes updated digital work instructions and sequencing priorities directly to workstation tablets.

Enterprise Security & Compliance

Zero-Hardware, SOC 2 Type II Encrypted Deployment

All data processing executes in isolated single-tenant environments. Proprietary company records, documents, and client communications are strictly encrypted in transit (TLS 1.3) and at rest (AES-256) with zero model retention and no external training on customer data.

Deployment Sprint

4-Week Production Implementation Roadmap

Week 1: Connect ERP (SAP/NetSuite) and MES work-center execution databases.

2

Week 2: Configure machine tooling changeover matrices and shift skill constraints.

3

Week 3: Pilot interactive scheduling board with master production schedulers.

4

Week 4: Plant-wide rollout across all assembly lines and machining cells.

Technical & Operational FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions (6)

The combinatorial solver models exact changeover cost matrices, clustering compatible jobs to minimize total setup downtime.

Yes. Planners can simulate rush order insertions, machine maintenance outages, or overtime shifts, viewing instant OTIF and capacity impacts.

We support SAP S/4HANA PP, Oracle NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain, Epicor, and Plex Systems.

Workstation touch tablets update job sequence priority in real time, alerting operators with visual prompts before starting the next job.

No. The system operates on software data feeds (ERP sales orders, MES completion logs, and shift availability) without physical hardware.

ERP connector mapping, changeover matrix configuration, and planner onboarding take 3 to 5 weeks.
