This core element of Jobshop, controls the progress of work through the manufacturing facility. A full set of monitoring and tracking routines ensures complete visibility of works orders, whether they have been loaded directly into the system or via Jobshop Estimating.
The system automatically generates fully specified works orders / routings complete with;
- Part numbers
- Manufacturing instructions
- Planned times
- Material requirements
- Delivery date and customer details.
Shop floor documentation
Jobshop provides the complete range of shop floor documentation including;
- Operation tickets
- Kit lists
- Tooling lists
- Finished goods transfer notes
- Stock check tickets
- Sub-contract documentation
Bar coded documentation is available as standard through Jobshop’s Shop Floor Data Collection module.
Sub-contract documentation is created automatically at the required point in the production process. In addition, the anticipated return date is specified in order to ensure close monitoring of bought-out services.
Production quality recording can also be actioned at any stage - with analysis by work centre, department, operator or period - and output in tabular or graphical form.
Works orders can be raised both for ‘make to order’ and ‘make to stock’ operations.
Tools, jigs and fixtures can be linked to individual operations using simple tool files - which can also be included in scheduling.
Unlimited narratives - normally work instructions – can be assigned and stored with any operation; to ensure operators are fully aware of requirements.
When the works order is raised, standard routings and BOMs are generated from the master database without administrative input. Multiple BOMs and routings can also be held within Jobshop, enabling alternatives to be specified quickly and efficiently if customer required dates are compromised.
Work-in-Progress is monitored accurately using data entered directly into the system or received via shop floor bar-code readers. The same data is also used to update relevant costing and performance monitoring files.
Feedback on ‘planned’ against ‘actual’ times is instantly available to shop floor supervision, along with other related performance indicators
