Reports (Future Enhancements)
While the Capacity Plan and Capacity Slot provide the foundation for planning and scheduling, additional reports will strengthen decision-making and monitoring. These reports are designed to offer visibility across resources, demand, and execution performance.
1. Capacity Utilization Report
- Purpose: Compare planned demand vs. available capacity across workstations and teams.
- Highlights:
- Utilization percentage per workstation/team.
- Overloaded vs. underutilized resources.
- Graphical dashboards (heatmaps or Gantt views) for visualization.
- Business Value: Ensures balanced resource allocation and prevents over-scheduling.
2. Bottleneck Analysis Report
- Purpose: Identify recurrent constraints in production capacity.
- Highlights:
- List of operations/workstations that consistently exceed available capacity.
- Average queue/wait time per operation.
- Trend of bottlenecks over time.
- Business Value: Provides insights to invest in additional resources, reassign tasks, or optimize routing.
3. Production Feasibility Report
- Purpose: Validate whether sales commitments can be realistically achieved based on current capacity.
- Highlights:
- Demand from Expected Sales / Sales Orders vs. available slots.
- Projected delivery dates vs. promised delivery dates.
- “At Risk” orders flagged for early intervention.
- Business Value: Reduces customer dissatisfaction by aligning sales promises with production capability.
4. Team Performance Report
- Purpose: Measure efficiency and throughput of production teams.
- Highlights:
- Completed vs. planned slots per team.
- Average operation duration vs. standard.
- Overtime or underperformance indicators.
- Business Value: Enables data-driven workforce planning and team optimization.
