Production Planning

Resource Management

Capaul’s managers wasted hours merging ERP and APS data in Excel, causing delays, errors, and no real-time insight into production priorities.

Challenge

Capaul's precision manufacturing operations faced critical inefficiencies as production managers wasted 8+ hours weekly on manual planning tasks. Consolidating data from separate ERP and APS systems into Excel spreadsheets for resource planning and progress tracking created scheduling errors that threatened delivery commitments to aerospace, rail, energy, and medical clients. The company needed automated resource management to maintain operational efficiency and meet growing customer demands.

Pain Points
  • Production managers manually consolidated ERP and APS data into Excel for resource planning and progress tracking
  • Manual Excel-based scheduling created frequent errors that compromised delivery dates and resource allocation accuracy
  • Workforce operated without real-time production visibility, hampering coordination and effective workload management
