Know the Ripple Effect Before You Move a Single Job

A production schedule begins aging the moment it is published. A rush order arrives. A machine goes down. Material runs late. An operation takes longer than planned. The schedule that was right at the start of the shift can be out of date by lunch.

Simio Essentials and Simio Essentials Plus show what those changes mean for the rest of the plan: which orders are heading for a late delivery, where capacity is about to run short, and what happens if you change something before you commit to it.

What you'll see:

  • A production schedule built from FactoryLogix data in one click 
  • Which orders are heading for a late delivery, and where the floor is about to run hot
  • A what-if scenario run live, with two or three options compared side by side before anyone commits
  • Why an event-by-event schedule holds up on the floor when a weekly bucket doesn't
  • Open Q&A with the team

Who should watch?

For anyone whose day changes when the schedule does.

[On-Demand Webinar] Simio Essentials for FactoryLogix

Value from the first click

Simio Essentials and Simio Essentials Plus both run natively in FactoryLogix. One click looks 60 days ahead using data you already have: products, routings, equipment, work orders, due dates, and the current state of work in process. Every run returns the same six views, from a production health summary to which orders are running late and by how much.

Essentials Plus adds what-if scenarios. Add an order you haven't accepted, take a line down for maintenance, or add a shift, then compare the results side by side before you commit.

How Simio differs from traditional scheduling

Spreadsheets and rules-based APS tools work from fixed rules and average times, and many take hours to regenerate a schedule. By the time the new plan is ready, the floor has already moved on.

Simio simulates production forward in time, event by event, against every constraint in your operation. That includes equipment, labor, material, changeover rules, and the shop-floor logic your best planners carry in their heads. Simio also accounts for variability, like machine breakdowns and late material, so you see the risk to each order along with the expected outcome. You get a schedule your team can execute, updated as fast as conditions change.
