At DSI we can help you determine your determine your Changeover Index (CXI) - a number between 0 and 1.......0 is efficient and 1 means you have a lot of room for improvement.
Take control of your production and finite scheduling with SchedDSI — Talk to us about us opening a user portal to upload secure scheduling information and start to see if your schedule can use improvement with SchedDSI.
Using the CXI, you'll be taking your first step towards improving your production efficiency.

Simple
Most scheduling apps get difficult really quickly. Let's start with just a basic core issue that every company faces. Locate one piece of your Job or Batch IDs that cause the most issues on your production floor and load a few items and let's see what happens.
Download the CSV file and calculate your initial CXI based on your current schedule
Easy, just create a CSV of BatchIDs, Ship dates, ProductTypes. Upload it and do the initial calculation.

Calculate the CXIs - Before and After
The CXI calculator will measure your production over time based available work hours and the number of changeovers.
The results speak for themselves
By examining the graphic above, you can see that by a simple shuffling of like Product Types and paying attention to constraints and ship dates, the schedule can be made to be much more efficient and open up more production capacity within the original calendar days from the initial schedule. And notice on the two gantt charts below. Same number of jobs.... a lot less time....
With SchedDSI, imagine now, every day or every shift, getting the best schedule possible. You have the ability to get a "lock" window for the next 72 or 96 hours (configurable) and then an efficient 'shuffling' of the downstream batches that always respect your constraints.
After your initial CXI calculations, reach out to us for a FEED Study - Front End Engineering Design - survey and we will get you started on your path to you best schedule possible - not just a schedule, but a production efficiency system.
If we can reduce costs, we can probably also get you more capacity with your current resources
You can use it in its simplest form or introduce a series of constraints and optimizations ideas
