Multi-Location Scheduling Challenges
Multi-location manufacturers face scheduling complexity that compounds with every site. Different workcenters, different labor pools, different shift patterns — all needing coordination for realistic customer promises and efficient resource utilization across the network.
- No unified scheduling visibility across manufacturing sites
- Each location using different tools (or no tools) for planning
- Inability to evaluate cross-location capacity for new orders
- New site deployment taking months with traditional ERP scheduling
- Different sites with different workcenters, shifts, and capabilities
- Management blind to network-wide bottlenecks and capacity gaps
How RMDB Schedules Across Multiple Locations
RMDB provides each location with its own scheduling configuration — workcenters, labor pools, production calendars, and routing rules — while giving management unified visibility across the entire network. New sites can be deployed in days, not months, even in international greenfield operations.
- Per-site workcenter, labor, and calendar configuration
- Unified capacity visibility across all manufacturing locations
- Multi-month planning horizons (6+ months for workforce planning)
- New site deployment in days — even internationally
- Multi-user access with site-level and management-level permissions
- Works with existing site-level ERP systems
- Heat map and utilization views across all locations (EDGEBI)
- Scalable from 2 sites to 33+ with no architecture changes
“We like the ability to define load and select a realistic promise date for our customers — we have already seen an increase in customer satisfaction.”
Joe Van Wagner, Production Manager
Cummins Engine — 33 U.S. locations
“RMDB required one individual very much part time (me) to set up on the critical areas for China and is now being run by a young Chinese manager who had no manufacturing experience.”
Jim Steel, Operations Manager
