Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS) software enables manufacturers to optimize the allocation of raw materials and production capacity to meet demand efficiently. APS is especially valuable for companies with complex manufacturing processes that require sophisticated planning capabilities. While primarily used by manufacturing departments, APS can also benefit other areas, such as inventory management and procurement. APS software typically integrates with Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) to execute production plans on the shop floor. It also connects with Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems to facilitate the exchange of critical data, including information on demand, inventory levels, and production schedules.
