Case Study: Unipromet achieves more efficient production scheduling with NETRONIC Visual Production Scheduler

How Unipromet achieved more planning efficiency & transparency and increased throughput by better usage of resource capacities

Unipromet, a Serbian manufacturer of road fence systems and steel constructions, faced a significant challenge after upgrading its Microsoft Dynamics NAV ERP system. The new version lacked the integrated graphical planning tool it had previously relied on, forcing the company to use inaccurate and time-consuming manual Excel reports for production scheduling. This inefficient process lacked transparency and made it impossible to effectively manage resource capacities and the overall production workflow. To solve this, their NAV partner recommended a visual production scheduling add-in from NETRONIC.

NETRONIC implemented its Visual Production Scheduler (VPS) for Microsoft Dynamics NAV. The solution provided Unipromet with a clear visual overview of capacity loads and bottlenecks, bringing much-needed structure and transparency to their planning. The results included a considerably more efficient planning process, significantly easier operations management for each work order, and better usage of resources. This empowered the company to increase its overall production throughput. NETRONIC provided a stable basis for decision-making and an overall improvement in production efficiency.
