Case Study: F-Tech Inc achieves faster scheduling and lower inventory with Asprova

F-Tech Inc cuts scheduling time to a couple of hours with Asprova in 2 months

F-Tech Inc., an auto parts manufacturer, faced significant challenges with manual production scheduling. Their reliance on intuition and experience led to a heavy workload for scheduling managers, frequent errors, and excessive inventory due to inconsistent material ordering and an inability to keep up with order changes. To resolve this, they turned to Asprova Corporation for its high-speed production scheduling system, Asprova, and a complementary production management module called DISP.

By implementing Asprova's solution, F-Tech reduced the time required to create a schedule from a full day to just a couple of hours, drastically cutting the managers' workload. The system's accurate scheduling also reduced setup time, lead time, and inventory within just two months of operation. Furthermore, Asprova enabled automatic material ordering, which prevented shortages. The vendor's high-speed scheduling and standard features were key to achieving these rapid and measurable improvements.
