DELMIA Ortems is an advanced planning and scheduling (APS) system that helps companies quickly develop detailed production schedules and short-, medium-, and long-term production plans. It comes with a suite of three dedicated modules that drive synchronization and optimization of manufacturing operations across multiple lines, preventing you from missing important deadlines.
The ability to successfully resolve operational issues between requirements and capacity allows for seamless production process integration and a unified view of all production. As a result, you can quickly and precisely identify manufacturing bottlenecks and implement schedule modifications. Efficiently managed lead times and minimized machine downtimes enable you to respond quickly to disruptions or unexpected issues, all while strengthening relationships with existing clients and forging new partnerships.
DELMIA Ortems is intended for manufacturers with multiple production lines and work centers who seek out-of-the-box (OOTB) advanced planning and scheduling software to automate and optimize their processes. To ensure the successful implementation of the DELMIA Ortems software, it's essential to have key metrics and data readily available in PLM, ERP, and MES systems, along with other digital data sources. This availability lays a strong foundation for maximizing the software's potential.
Your company’s size, industry, sector, or production type does not ultimately determine whether you can roll out the system. DELMIA’s APS solution can be equally effective in a variety of manufacturing areas and production types, from low-volume to high-volume production, including such types as project-based, engineering-to-order (ETO), make-to-order (MTO), and make-to-stock (MTS). Before starting an APS project, it's important to ensure that your budget and business needs are in harmony with your specific planning and scheduling requirements, setting the stage for a successful implementation.
DELMIA Ortems is ideally suited for medium to large manufacturing companies, offering optimized solutions that align well with their business and financial frameworks. However, DELMIA Ortems may not be a good fit for very small manufacturers or those specifically seeking a sales and operations planning (S&OP) solution. In these cases, exploring alternatives that cater specifically to these needs might be more beneficial.
DELMIA Ortems provides numerous business benefits for manufacturers who choose this system as their APS software. If you require an OOTB solution that will support your advanced planning and scheduling needs, DELMIA Ortems can potentially help you:
Shorten production cycles by 50%
Lower stock level by 40%
Increase production efficiency by 10%
Reduce retooling time by 25%
Cut production plan development time by 60%
Boost order planning and monitoring by 100%
Improve customer service metrics by 50%
Decrease production lead times by 40%
DELMIA Ortems offers dedicated OOTB planning and scheduling tools that help manufacturing businesses from various industries successfully plan and schedule production to meet objectives and minimize costs. Once integrated, the APS system:
Expertly manages advanced planning and scheduling for both discrete and process production types Facilitates medium and long-term planning for manufacturers who start noticing the need to plan ahead as their production is growing and maturing
Enables production planners and supervisors in project-based or ETO manufacturing to plan and schedule processes accurately from the start
Enhances inventory management by synchronizing multilevel BOMs and automating order generation for semi-finished products, which leads to a significant reduction in excess inventory and improved control over safety stock Strengthens customer relationships by enhancing traceability from customer to supplier, improving reliability in lead times, and providing superior customer service Delivers consistent effectiveness across different industries and sectors, amplifying operational performance, enhancing supply chain oversight, and increasing manufacturing capacity and productivity
The advanced planning and scheduling software from DELMIA Ortems offers various OOTB capabilities that interconnect key areas of your production environment to help you effectively manage production flows, optimize resource capacity, limit or eliminate planning faults, and solve operational hurdles.
Achieve heightened production capabilities with increased efficiency, enabling you to produce more at the same or even reduced costs. Effectively manage shop-floor operations to realize complex projects that require maximum precision in planning the duration of technological processes. Maximize your shop floor's production potential using existing resources, and enhance agility to adapt seamlessly to unforeseen events on the shop floor.
Utilize cutting-edge, collaborative features that empower supply chain personnel to remain updated and actively engage in information exchange, tailored to their authorization levels and responsibilities. To optimize supply chain management, share your planning processes and key performance indicators (KPIs) with clients, contractors, suppliers, and partners throughout the enterprise, fostering transparency and enhanced coordination.
Harness the just-in-time (JIT) system's capabilities to seamlessly integrate requirements and manufacturing capacity across all BOM levels. This integration ensures optimal inventory planning, heightened control over material flow, and enhanced manufacturing capacity. By employing a multilevel BOM approach, you can synchronize purchase and work orders from raw materials to semi-finished and finished goods. This strategy not only balances loads but also accelerates the flow lines, leading to more efficient production processes.
Leverage production data to develop precise manufacturing plans and schedules, minimizing risks and reducing errors in planning equipment availability, human resource management, and ordering essential raw materials or components for fulfilling your production orders. Utilize the Visual Interface Configurator (VIC) to seamlessly integrate the DELMIA Ortems APS system with external data sources such as 3rd party systems, databases, and files. Maximize the benefits of the VIC module to establish automated interfaces with your ERP, PLM, and MES solutions.
DELMIA Ortems comprises a set of three modules that effectively automate and digitalize your planning and scheduling processes to ensure you gain a competitive edge. To make your digital transformation faster and easier, DELMIA Ortems provides functionalities that effectively standardize and harmonize your manufacturing operations.
Use Manufacturing Planner to streamline manufacturing planning and expand your production capabilities by minimizing production disruptions with contingency planning. Run load analysis and identify bottlenecks to assess production capacity for mid and long-term planning.
