Case Study: Davis & Shirtliff improves on-time delivery with NETRONIC Visual Production Scheduler

Transparency, gained by the VPS, helps Davis & Shirtliff keeping delivery on-time

Davis and Shirtliff, a Kenya-based supplier of water and energy systems, faced challenges with on-time delivery due to a lack of transparency in its project-based manufacturing process. Without a formal system, communication between sales and production teams was poor, leading to missed deadlines and customer dissatisfaction. The company turned to NETRONIC and its Visual Production Scheduler for a solution.

By integrating NETRONIC's Visual Production Scheduler into its Microsoft Dynamics NAV system, Davis and Shirtliff achieved complete visual transparency over its operations. This solution from NETRONIC improved communication, optimized staff utilization, enabled better load balancing, and even exposed inaccurate routing data. The result was the ability to execute orders with military precision, leading to a significant improvement in on-time delivery.
