ProdSYNC
Production Schedules Your Factory Can Trust
Keeps the original plan visible, compares it with live execution, and helps planners decide when to absorb deviations โ and when a replan is truly justified.
Production plans lose trust before they lose accuracy.
The problem is not that planners do not have data. The problem is that the system does not preserve the original intent of the plan.
The Baseline Disappears
The reference plan is quietly rewritten to match reality. Nobody can say what the original schedule promised or how far execution has drifted.
Deviations Trigger Firefighting
Every delay becomes a manual Excel correction. The system cannot tell a real signal from noise already absorbed elsewhere in the schedule.
Planner Knowledge Isn't Institutionalized
The senior planner knows which lines flex and which suppliers fail on Thursdays. When absent, the shift manager improvises without that context.
Faster Replanning Isn't the Answer
Too much replanning creates schedule nervousness โ operators stop believing any schedule will hold and stop following it entirely.
How ProdSYNC Solves It
Not another APS trying to optimize the perfect plan. Realistic scheduling that keeps the original plan honest.
Committed Schedule as Permanent Reference
The committed schedule is locked as the permanent reference. Deviations are measured against the original intent, not a moving target that drifts with every update.
Root Cause Linked to Every Deviation
Every deviation is linked to its root cause โ material delay, capacity gap, supplier miss โ and its downstream impact on delivery dates is calculated automatically.
ERP Intent Meets Shop-Floor Reality
ERP intent meets shop-floor reality through Jidoka Kanban execution data. Both stay connected to the committed plan. No Excel correction loop needed.
Human Oversight as Architecture
AI explains, compares, and surfaces patterns. It never replans autonomously. Human oversight is the architecture โ aligned with EU AI Act Article 14 principles.
ProdSYNC is not another APS trying to optimize the perfect plan. It keeps the original schedule visible, connects execution feedback, shows the cause of deviations, and helps planners choose the best trade-off before changing anything.
The Original Plan Stays Visible. Always.
Most systems quietly rewrite the baseline when reality deviates. ProdSYNC locks the committed schedule and keeps it permanently visible โ so you always know what was actually promised and by how much reality has drifted.
- Committed plan locked at approval โ never silently overwritten
- Live execution displayed side-by-side with baseline
- Deviation delta calculated per line, per order, per shift
- Planner sees signal vs. noise โ not everything needs a replan
Know Why Before You Decide Whether to Act
ProdSYNC links every deviation to its root cause and calculates downstream impact before the planner makes a single decision. Three costed scenarios are presented โ absorb, shift, or replan โ so the choice is informed, not instinctive.
- Root cause automatically traced: material, capacity, or supplier
- Downstream impact calculated before any action is taken
- Three costed options: absorb, shift, replan
- Planner confirms โ system never acts unilaterally
AI That Explains and Compares. Never Blindly Decides.
The AI layer builds progressively on a deterministic, auditable constraint-programming core. It explains in plain language, queries the schedule, detects recurring patterns, and generates scenarios for comparison. The planner always decides.
- Natural language queries: "Why did Line 3 fall behind?" โ answered instantly
- Pattern detection: recurring supplier delays surfaced before they repeat
- Scenario generation: trade-offs shown, not dictated
- Aligned with EU AI Act Article 14 human-oversight principles

ProdSYNC Works With the Products You Already Have
ProdSYNC is the intelligence layer that connects your feasible schedule (MPS) with real-time execution (Jidoka Kanban) โ and keeps both honest against the original commitment.
