Presentation
TECHNO-GP© is a computer assisted management software
package designed and developed by TECHNOSOFT under the Window environment
(UNIX portable) integrating:
Client-server
architectureof the standard and third-party software according
to the configuration of clients’ sites.
Modular
structure.
Graphic(hierarchal
lists), interactive(contextual menus)
and intuitive navigation.
Workflow integrated
for some work processes (work management, acquisitions…).
Integrated documentary
management.
Web
connections via INTRANET and INTERNET..
The implementation of a production computerized management software
shall first enable to systematize the most off-putting tasks (management
of documents, manufacturing orders, production monitoring map, …)
by providing assistance to research in technical documentation. But
its main purpose is to provide technicians and managers with decision
information concerning production planning, paying orders control and
follow up.
When efficiently used, the GPAO must result in the following scale
at a macro-functional scale:
Reduce delivery
deadlines
Optimize the
output of production tools: calculation of outputs, productivity ratios…
Immobilize
minimal stock provisions: turn-over, coverage rate…
Rapidly have
information required for OF preparation
Plan future
actions (OF)
Control and
correct the execution of actions (OF, acquisitions …) in progress
Provide accurate
information concerning production global costs
Functionalities
Management
of technical data
It serves to set basic parameters required for production, that is
the definition of articles (finished products, in progress and raw
materials), the management of the nomenclature (multi-levels), the
manufacturing range, tools used by manufacturing orders, sections
and production stations…
Long
term planning
This module is based on the calculation of MRP2 type needs and is designed
to the planning of resources in order to:
Prepare a long
term provisional budget for the acquisition of raw materials.
Better plan
production capacities to better act and react.
Better deal
with short term planning, by generating OF’s planned for
ongoing supply and for finished products.
Short
term planning
This module constitute the software’s major nucleus. It includes
options preceding the launch of manufacturing orders and monitoring
them, which are: production payment orders and the planning of OF to
be launched.
Monitoring
and manufacturing module
This module supersedes the previous one (short term planning) and constitutes
a complete production follow up tool: it includes documents edited
on a daily basis to monitor production such as the staff assignment
files, manufacturing follow up files, launching orders (launched OF).
It is used to permanently evaluate OF performance ratios (efficiency rate, outputs,
waste rates …) and production batches.
Statistics
and background analysis
This module is used for the analysis of all production activities through
a number of reliable and representative parameters: costs, production
statistics by OF or by batch, waste analysis … It enables to
control production management within the company and facilitate the
detection of anomalies and real time appropriate decision making.
Management
of stocks and procurements
It is used to manage the flow of articles, in a multi-store mode. It
includes the management of procurements (local and foreign), It provides
reliable information on consumptions related to launched OF (materials
balance statements …). We can also have an advanced analysis
of stocks including immobilizing costs, rotation, coverage rate, and
the full history of movements.
Novelties
New graphic
and dynamic functionalities (improved GANTT)
Workflow integrated
for some work processes (the launch of production for instance …).
