Products Thru-Put

Thru-Put, from Infor Global Solutions allows you to synchronize your entire supply chain around constraints, improving the material flow in the shop-floor and on-time delivery to customers. Thru-Put utilizes a Drum-Buffer-Rope (DBR) execution philosophy to simplify the management of your complex shop-floor.

Thru-Put seamlessly attaches to existing ERP backbone systems giving you a planning and scheduling tool that provides great visibility on both material and capacity for improved operational performance and better decision making. Material and capacity planning is conducted simultaneously to provide realistic schedules, plans, and promise dates based on what you can actually produce through your bottlenecks and constraints. Utilizing lean methodology, Thru-Put "pulls" the material through the plant based on demand due dates (customer orders or forecast or both).

The more complex your operations are, the more variability that potentially exists on the shop floor, and the more your business will benefit with Thru-put. Planners and buyers use the increased material and capacity visibility and "what-if" capabilities in the software to give them a tool to have a positive and immediate impact on on-time shipments, shorter production cycle times, and reduced inventory. Thru-Put seeks one piece continuous flow balanced to eliminate material and capacity waste associated with running fixed lot-sizes or fixed Kanban quantities. This lean enablement software tool provides value by synchronizing the plant for maximum throughput, very high on-time, and inventory reduction.

Greater visibility and information translates into better planning & scheduling decisions. Increased inventory turns, improved customer responsiveness, and more capacity with current resources will positively impact your company's productivity and profit.
