By using JDA Factory Planner, you can avoid making costly trade-offs between customer commitments and key financial objectives. JDA Factory Planner streamlines and aligns the activities of your production control, manufacturing and procurement teams by automating mundane tasks and shifting the focus to critical issues that may impact key service, operational and financial targets.

  • Improved throughput and reduced waste
  • Ability to respond rapidly to interruptions in execution

Why JDA?

JDA Factory Planner goes beyond simple constraint-based planning and exception-based reporting by providing your planners with a holistic view of factory plans and comprehensive demand, supply and capacity key performance indicators (KPIs).
