Optimization
SCI Canada uses the metaheuristic mathematical solver by OptTek Systems for scheduling and facility location optimizations. The OptTek Solver is bulit into SCP and is ready and waiting to be implemented for scheduling and other requirements wihtin the SCP system.
Lowest Cost Scheduling Solution
OptTek combined with SCP is a low cost solution - literally. Our optimized scheduling solution has been put to the test against software costing 10 times as much and come out ahead! We combine service, inventory and setups to provide the lowest cost sequence possible to a given set of work orders in a factory. We can take into account multiple resources, special tooling requirements and stock requirements. OptTek is our optimizer of choice as it integrates easily into any environment and is easily customized to specific situations. Don't be fooled by generic scheduling solutions. In the world of scheduling optimization - nothing is generic!
Optimized Safety Stocks
Typical safety stock analysis is done by analyzing past history, calculating variation and setting an inventory level by choosing a service level requirement. All of this is done in isolation, one item at a time and assumes you have the capacity to produce the material. Using OptTek Optimization we can continuously analyze the inventory levels and tell you which item is the best item to produce at any given time to minimize service interuptions and inventory levels.
Customized Optimization
SCI Canada can optimize just about any situation with the design created just for you. Whether you are trying to solve a transportation issue, scheduling problem, machine configuration, employee utilization or network design problem we can help find the solution.
