MAKE-N-SHIP
Warehouse Optimization Platform
Without MNS
It’s quite common that the movement of products directly from production to various deployment destinations is challenged due to the complex and manual confluence of production, warehousing, and transportation.
- There is a mismatch between pre-built stock transfer orders (STOs) and what gets produced.
- Warehouse management systems can’t efficiently handle line-to-truck.
- Schedule compliance by the production plant isn’t acceptable.
- Without the buffer of the warehouse storage, line-to-truck struggles to have a ready supply of trailers that match production.
With MNS
With AutoScheduler Make-n-Ship, moving production runs directly to the truck eliminates touches and reduces the need for storage space in the manufacturing site.
- MnS focuses on creating transportation requirements days in advance so “best-cost carriers” can be engaged.
- As production changes, MnS reschedules transportation where possible to match production schedules.
- MnS creates and transmits a recommended transportation plan.
- Every hour, on the hour, the need and timing of trailers and inventory are updated.
- Using the latest data, including trailer availability, it creates warnings for things such as a trailer shortage in two days.
- A real-time “Deployment Module” is updated to reflect the latest decisions on where to shift/store inventory.
