Simplex: The Next Generation in Scheduling

Simplex: The Next Generation in Scheduling

Hello All!

I have built a program that helps you organize your schedule for your machines. At a company I was working for, we had an issue finding a way to schedule all the jobs in our shop. We were a very fast paced environment and needed a solution that was able to keep up with how fast we worked. After researching possible solutions, I eventually developed a program built into Microsoft Excel.

With the program I built, we were able to go from a 45 days in-house on average down to 15-20 days, improving our on time delivery by 20%. This setup an infrastructure that allowed the company to set several record months consecutively and that pace continues today. All it took was a simple, straightforward tool to help organize how jobs ran through the shop.

After word had gotten out about this tool, I have developed it into a product that I can pass along to hopefully help other shops with scheduling troubles.

I'm officially releasing the Beta Test version of the software to the public. If you are looking for a solution to help you schedule your company, please take a look into my program, Simplex. You can read more about it at www.nxmfg.com!

Thank you for reading!

Checking this out. We're a small shop, but we usually have a couple thousand parts to make at anytime & machine efficiency & planning is often an issue
