Introduction to DELMIA Ortems

DELMIA Ortems is a planning and scheduling solution that has been deployed for over 20 years to optimise full-capacity production for all manufacturers:

 

  • Multi-constraint optimisation engines such as configurable constraints: multi-level BOM, machine constraint, material, man or tool.
  • A decision-support and simulation solution that enables all possible scenarios to be drawn up and compared.
  • A collaborative planning environment for the entire supply chain.

     

    This is a solution for planning resources and processes in order to create and optimise manufacturing systems and virtually optimise manufacturing resources in parallel with planning.

 

Delmia Ortems can also be used to monitor production activities in real time, modify schedules, launch new programmes, introduce model changes and plan maintenance operations.

When drawing up and updating a production schedule becomes a time-consuming, daily headache, the planner’s decision-making skills and Excel files reach their limits.

 

Manufacturers are under pressure in a highly competitive market. Short response times to customers, coupled with complex production, make scheduling and planning difficult without appropriate solutions.

 

To achieve this, manufacturers need a decision support and simulation solution. The core business of the scheduler and planner is based on making decisions and comparing scenarios such as: new customer order, machine breakdown, supply delays, quality problems, preventive maintenance, etc.

 

Consequently, scheduling and planning can no longer be carried out using tools from the past, such as Excel files that take a long time to prepare, are not collaborative, depend on experts and are not connected to ERP systems.

 

In order to meet these requirements, Dassault Systèmes is responding to these planning and scheduling issues with the DELMIA Ortems solution.

DELMIA Ortems key features

DELMIA Ortems, an advanced planning and scheduling solution designed to optimize production management, offers the following key functionalities:

 

  • Finite and infinite capacity planning
    • Plan production according to capacity requirements and respect the actual limits of the plant (manpower, machines, materials). Infinite capacity provides a strategic vision for anticipating long-term demand.
  • Detailed scheduling and priority management
    • Schedule each stage of production according to priorities, available resources and specific requirements. The purpose is to reduce waiting times between stages.
  • Constraint and bottleneck management
    • Identify bottlenecks in the production chain. The software also suggests adjustments to minimize their impact, thus maximizing efficiency and reducing delays.
  • Inventory optimization and management
    • Optimize stock levels and synchronize production with demand. This reduces excess inventory while ensuring product availability to meet customer needs.
  • Real-time visibility and collaboration
    • Benefit from a real-time view of production operations, for instant decision-making and cross-team collaboration.
  • KPI tracking and customized dashboards
    • Provide dashboards and KPIs to monitor production status. Measure efficiency and on-time delivery, and identify areas for improvement.
  • Multi-site and multi-level management
    • Centralize planning and coordinate different units for companies with multiple production sites or complex production processes. Ensure consistency between different levels of the production chain.
  • Simulation and scenario analysis
    • Create “what-if” scenarios to assess the impact of changes and make informed decisions.
