Delmia Ortems - Advanced Planning and Scheduling APS Software

Yes, you can use the Visual Interface Configurator module to integrate DELMIA Ortems with any ERP system.

Yes, the DELMIA Ortems interface enables you to make updates and adjustments to the timeline of orders and production operations, as well as set units of time, e.g., minutes, days, weeks, or months. The system allows for full customization of order information: order details, descriptions, numbers, and other info can be easily changed.

Yes, the system provides the reporting capability that allows for exporting reports in such formats as PDF. The second reporting method involves exporting reports directly from the system’s database into Excel spreadsheets or other data analysis tools.

No, DELMIA Ortems is an APS system that facilitates the creation of automated, optimal, and realistic production plans. Production reporting happens through MES and ERP systems that send information of completed operations and orders to APS.

Information about a production completion is typically sent from an MES system (or another production monitoring tool) to ERP, and then to an APS system.

An advanced planning and scheduling (APS) system extends capabilities of an ERP system and allows for preforming complex planning operations and optimized simulations, facilitating a streamlined process of developing production schedules for multiple products, leveraging diverse processes used across the company while taking into account limited production resources.

A customer service level (CSL) is a measure of customer satisfaction due meeting customer needs and expectations of product quality, delivery time, reliability, and convenience.

Demand planning is a complex and multilayered process that helps estimate the market demand and sales operations to organize production processes and create budget plans allowing for meeting customer demand, all while minimizing overstock and supply chain disruptions.

Electronic work instructions (EWI) are tools such as videos, images, 3D modeling and simulation software that provide working instructions and task guidelines for shop-floor operators.

An enterprise resource planning (ERP) system allows for management of a company’s resources such as staff, stock, and finances to optimize the use of these resources as well as the operations and processes taking place across the enterprise.  

Production forecasting is the process of estimating the production size (including demand, sales, and the need of resources or new products) based on research and analysis of the available relevant data.

Product genealogy is a manufacturing execution system’s (MES) capability that enables monitoring of production lots by tracking finished goods from raw materials to completed products, from suppliers to end users. Monitoring production processes and tracking product genealogy are currently among the standard elements of production control, ensuring customer safety.

Lean manufacturing is an approach to manufacturing operations management based on the principle of minimizing the use of all resources, including time, while delivering goods and services of the highest quality at the lowest possible production cost.

Labor is the human effort that contributes to manufacturing operations and production processes.

A manufacturing execution system (MES) is a system used in manufacturing operations for tracking and documenting turning raw materials into finished products, enabling an effective, real-time data collection and control of multiple elements of the production process, including stock, personnel, machinery, and support services.

Manufacturing operations management (MOM) encompasses standard MES functionalities, e.g., managing staff, resources, and stock, while allowing for management of the whole enterprise, i.e., control of warehouses, shipments, material quality and maintenance.  

Product lifecycle management (PLM) is the process of managing the whole product lifecycle from ideation, through research and development, service, all the way to disposal. Typically, the process allows for keeping the latest documentation with all its previous changes.

A visual interface configurator (VIC) is a solution that enables DELMIA Ortems to integrate with external data sources like files, databases, and other computer systems. The tool’s proven-to-work technology facilitates an easy communication with external systems with no need for coding or programming. The VIC module enables connections with other systems like ERP and MES.
