Positioning

Basis for the production supervisor is the

production plan created by the production

planner.

The production supervisor decides in detail

where to produce the production tasks.

In addition, in case of unforeseen

manufacturing events such as machine

breakdowns, reduced capacity offering, high-

priority orders, the supervisor has to adjust this

plan.

Reflects the reality on the shop floor

No heuristics and optimization functionality

supported

Typical end-users are production supervisors,

shift leads, foremen
