Planning in Excel can’t keep up
Even with the best effort, Excel-based or ERP scheduling quickly becomes outdated:
-
❌ Estimated cycle times instead of real ones
-
❌ No live link with machine or operator availability
-
❌ No automatic rebalancing when priorities change
-
❌ Difficult to visualize workload and bottlenecks
💬 The result: unrealistic plans that don’t reflect what’s actually happening on the floor.
Smart Scheduling powered by Phantasma + JITbase
JITbase combines real production data (machines, operators, shifts)
with Phantasma’s intelligent optimization engine to deliver a truly dynamic scheduling experience.
When priorities, deadlines, or machine availability change,
the schedule adapts automatically — instantly recalculating the optimal plan.
✅ Realistic finite capacity planning
✅ Live connection with shopfloor status
✅ Dynamic updates in seconds, not hours
✅ Visualization of jobs, resources, and constraints.
💡 Stop guessing — start optimizing.
How it works?
1️⃣ JITbase collects real-time data from your machines and operator schedules
2️⃣ Phantasma’s engine analyzes every job, resource, and constraint
3️⃣ A new, optimized plan is generated instantly
4️⃣ The plan is displayed visually in JITbase and updated as conditions evolve.
Each new constraint (machine down, operator absence, urgent order) automatically triggers a smart recalculation — no manual work needed.
Why is this important?
Traditional planning tools are “infinite capacity”: they assume everything runs perfectly.
Smart Scheduling brings finite capacity planning — grounded in your real constraints.
With JITbase + Phantasma:
✅ You see the real achievable schedule
✅ You balance machine and operator loads automatically
✅ You deliver more on time, with less chaos.
💬 Planning finally meets reality.
Customer story
“Before, our plan looked perfect on paper, but the shopfloor told another story.
Now, it’s the same plan — connected, optimized, and always realistic.”
— Production Planner, Tier-1 Aerospace Supplier
Pro tip
✅ Real optimization starts when your data is real.
Algorithms are powerful — but only when fed with accurate, real-time information.
That’s what makes the JITbase + Phantasma combination so effective.
