Finite APS, nesting, and what-if planning for NAICS 327991 shops
Plan, promise, and produce with confidence
Finite, constraint-based shop scheduler
Sequence bridge saws, waterjets, CNC routers, and polish lines with real constraints—tool changes, blade life, thickness/finish changeovers, QC holds, cure/epoxy set times, and maintenance windows. Produces a realistic dispatch list and stable promise dates, with pin/lock and auto-rebalance when priorities shift.
AI nesting, kerf-aware yield, and remnant control
Place parts on slabs and remnants with kerf, grain, and vein alignment rules, book-match and pattern-flow preferences, and slab defects. Recommend slab selection, predict scrap, and auto-catalog offcuts as barcoded remnants with photos and dimensions.
Capacity scenarios and ATP/CTP
Run what-if plans—overtime, shift changes, alternate routings, or subcontracting—and see impacts on lead time, throughput, and on-time delivery. Compute available-to-promise and capable-to-promise by product and finish, and spotlight bottlenecks.
Skills- and crew-aware labor planning
Balance crews across work centers with certifications for saws, cranes, and forklifts, enforce minimum crew sizes, and honor breaks and labor calendars. Model cross-training to relieve constraints and keep utilization healthy.
Digital travelers, WIP visibility, and traceability
Barcode or QR scan at start and complete, photo-based QA, and real-time WIP by work center and job. Capture OEE, downtime reasons, chips and cracks with rework loops, and maintain slab-to-job lot traceability back to supplier and quarry.
Crating, staging, and delivery planner
Auto-build crates by room and install sequence with weight and center-of-gravity checks, optimize loading order by route, and generate labels, packing lists, and BOL. Coordinate dock schedules and sync with installer calendars to meet install dates.
Simple Pricing
Flexible pricing to match any budget or team size.

What’s included
- AI finite‑capacity scheduling across bridge saws/sawjets, CNCs, edge polishers, slab/line polish, finishing, and shipping
- Constraint‑aware plans: crews/shifts, crane/forklift availability, maintenance windows, tool changes, cure times/resin lines, racks, and material readiness
- Automatic sequencing to hit due dates while minimizing changeovers, crane moves, and tool swaps
- Slab nesting and yield optimization with vein‑flow/bookmatch rules, kerf offsets, defect avoidance, and remnant reuse suggestions
- Real‑time promise dates (ATP/CTP) and quoting with data‑driven lead‑time predictions
- What‑if scenarios: expedite orders, reroute across machines, add overtime/2nd shift, subcontract, or reschedule for weather/field delays
- 13‑week capacity planning and load leveling by machine cell and crew with labor hour projections
- Live integrations: Moraware (CounterGo/JobTracker), ActionFlow, Slabsmith, Stone Profits, QuickBooks, NetSuite, CSV/REST; machine data via OPC UA and major OEM connectors
- Digital travelers with cut maps, barcode/QR routing, and tablet/TV dispatch boards for each workcenter
- Alerts and exceptions: late‑risk, material shortages, quality holds, and rework loops with auto‑reinsert to schedule
- KPI dashboards: throughput, OEE, WIP, schedule adherence, and on‑time delivery with daily/weekly rollups
- Multi‑plant and role‑based access with granular permissions; SSO available
- Implementation included: data mapping, schedule model build, rules/constraints tuning, and hands‑on training for planners and cell leads
- Priority support: chat/email/phone, SLA options, and quarterly optimization reviews
