Unlocking Production Line Efficiency with
AI-Powered Scheduling
Reduce machine idle time by 18% and improve on-time orders by 25%
This mid-sized manufacturer transformed production efficiency through an AI-powered scheduling solution — without replacing their ERP system.
When Growth Meets Scheduling Chaos
A growing Midwest manufacturer of industrial-grade components was facing a common issue: success brought complexity. They ran multiple short-run jobs across several work centers, relying on printed schedules and manual updates to sequence work.
Their ERP generated static job lists, but it couldn't adapt to rush orders, machine downtime, or real-time floor changes. As a result:
Static ERP job lists didn't reflect real-time shop floor realities
Planners spent hours each day manually sequencing jobs across machines
Machines were underutilized due to poor handoff timing and changeovers
Last-minute rush orders disrupted schedules and delayed deliveries
Steps to Success
Captivix first delivered a working AI pilot for intelligent scheduling using the client's historical data. After validating results with real teams on the shop floor, we scaled the model into a fully integrated scheduling engine — now driving production efficiency every day.
Use Case Definition & Pilot Scope
The client approached Captivix with a clear need: improve production scheduling efficiency without overhauling their existing ERP. Together, we scoped a pilot project focused on:
Data Review & Feasibility Assessment
To ensure the AI model could learn real-world patterns, our team collected and analyzed extensive operational data:
Pilot Development & Testing
We developed a reinforcement learning-based AI scheduler that could dynamically optimize production sequences:
On-Floor Validation & Feedback
The client's scheduling team and line supervisors reviewed AI-generated schedules vs. their own, providing critical real-world validation:
Automation & System Integration
With proven pilot results, we are moving towards a full automation deployment with seamless ERP integration:
From Firefighting to Flow — Smarter Scheduling at Scale
The AI scheduler transformed how the client runs production — shifting from reactive planning to proactive execution, without changing their ERP or team structure.
