What it is
GANTTPLAN APS is DUALIS software for scheduling manufacturing orders around available resources and capacity constraints. It plans machines and work centers, personnel, production resources, tools and materials together. Automatic scheduling, simulation, optimization-based planning, scenario mode and restriction-checked manual adjustments support schedule creation. Its material requirements planning includes lot-size optimization, material-availability checks and dynamic order-network planning. The Expert option adds seven weighted criteria covering setup, production and personnel costs, throughput times, capacity utilization, capital commitment and delivery reliability. GANTTPLAN Confirmation feeds shop-floor information into plan adjustments, while Analytics examines historical production data and supports forecasting. The system connects with ERP and MES systems and is described as an SAP ERP add-on. It can run on premises or in the cloud, including Microsoft Azure, through a web browser. Pricing is on request; there is no free plan, but a trial is offered.
