The SchedulePro Production Suite is recommended for companies that use SchedulePro for day-to-day production planning and scheduling. The ReadMe files of the Bio-Processing and Fill-Finish examples of SchedulePro provide detailed information on the subject as well. You will find two videos that provide detailed information on Purified Water (WFI) System Sizing. If you are interested in the subject, please visit the Videos page of our website and scroll to the bottom of the page. This functionality facilitates sizing of utility generation and storage systems. Changes made to the schedule are immediately reflected in the charts. The green lines represent the inventory of water in the storage tank, the reddish lines display the water draws and the blue lines represent the operation of the generation system that replenishes the inventory. For instance, the figure below represents the system that supplies purified water to a bio-manufacturing facility. It also generates more than 20 reports that provide information on production schedules, utilization of resources, ordering and inventories of materials, etc. SchedulePro calculates and displays demand for various resources, such as materials, utilities, labor, etc. Accounting for delays and equipment failures that lead to scheduling conflicts and necessitate rescheduling are easily handled by the tool. The current time-line results in the division of activities into three categories: completed (displayed by a crossed hatch pattern), in-progress (diagonal hatch) and not-started (filled pattern). The red vertical line represents the current time which is updated based on the computer clock time. The colored bars indicate when the equipment is in use. Each row corresponds to one equipment resource.
The figure below is the Equipment Occupancy chart of a manufacturing facility with two production lines (L1 and L2).
The scheduling results are displayed through various charts and reports. SchedulePro optionally considers constraints imposed by the limited availability of other resources, such as labor, utilities, and inventories of materials. SchedulePro generates time-optimized production schedules that do not violate constraints related to limited availability of work areas, main equipment, auxiliary equipment and staff members. In the ASAP (As Soon As Possible) mode, consecutive batches are scheduled as soon as all the required resources are available. In the Automatic and Layout modes, multi-batch campaigns are scheduled based on a cycle time to even the load of resources. The tool is equipped with several scheduling modes (e.g., Automatic, ASAP, Layout). A campaign can be scheduled with a certain target start or completion date and time or relative to the start or end of other campaigns. A campaign in SchedulePro is a set of batches of a certain recipe. Production schedules in SchedulePro consist of campaigns (a.k.a.
SchedulePro has a convenient calendar interface for entering time-based resource availability. In addition to equipment, other resources considered by SchedulePro include work areas, labor, staff members, materials, utilities and inventory capacity. The tool is equipped with multiple interfaces for creating, editing and visualizing recipes. Operations represent tasks executed within a procedure, such as charging of materials, fermentation, cleaning, etc. Unit procedures have one or more operations. A unit procedure is a processing step that utilizes a main equipment resource.

Recipes consist of a series of unit procedures that are grouped into sections. A recipe is a template or “master batch” for a process. SchedulePro is a recipe-based scheduling tool.
