i2 Factory Planner 6.3

i2 Factory Planner is an advanced planning and scheduling (APS) solution for manufacturing operations. It generates realistic, finite-capacity production schedules that respect material availability, machine and labor constraints, and sequence-dependent setup times. Built for planners who need fast, reliable answers, it helps balance service levels, throughput, and cost while responding quickly to change.

Key capabilities:

• Finite-capacity scheduling across work centers and production lines
• Synchronization of materials and capacity to produce feasible plans
• Support for alternate routings, batching, and sequence-dependent setups
• What-if simulation and scenario comparison for rapid decision-making
• Bottleneck visibility with timeline/Gantt and constraint-centric views
• Rules and heuristics to optimize for on-time delivery, changeovers, and WIP
• Exception management and quick rescheduling for rush orders or disruptions
• KPI tracking for utilization, throughput, cycle time, and schedule adherence
• Designed to integrate with ERP/MES to consume demand and routings and publish executable schedules

Ideal for discrete, process, and mixed-mode manufacturers seeking to improve on-time delivery, reduce inventory and WIP, and make dependable commitments with clear, constraint-aware production plans.
