  • Publication number: 20120278204
    Abstract: A device for supporting goods delivery schedule coordination includes: a storage unit retaining information of a delivery schedule and transportation lead time; a computation unit having a transportation lead-time converting unit which calculates the shipment date in the delivery schedule and stores that as an updated delivery schedule; an output unit which outputs by a screen the information of the updated delivery schedule based on two types of timing of arrival-date basis and shipment-date basis; and a control unit having a schedule-coordination-information receiving unit which receives information of the delivery schedule requested to be coordinated and stores that as a coordination-requested schedule. The computation unit further has a schedule-coordinatable-period calculating unit which stores the delivery schedule included in the coordinatable period as a coordinatable period. The output unit distinguishably displays a range about the coordinatable period.

  • Publication number: 20090043643
    Abstract: The system and method accepts the inputs of an aggregate (long-range) production plan draft, a profit and loss target, a sales target, and a stock target. Then, the accepted long-range production plan draft is deployed into master production schedule and then a feasibility of the long-range production schedule draft is simulated. Based on the simulated result, the system and method calculates an amended schedule, a predicted profit and loss, and predicted sales of the long-range production schedule draft. Further, a supply schedule is calculated on the middle-range production schedule draft deployed from the long-range plan draft. Based on the supply schedule, the middle-range production schedule draft, and a planned buying unit price, the system and method calculates a predicted stock, an estimated loss of inventory price decline, and a planned acquisition cost of inventory. Each calculated prediction data item is displayed on screen.
