Advanced Planning and Scheduling
APS
Planning, in a first analysis, is to resolve conflicts of interest between commercial and production departments. The need to monetize available production capacity represents an opportunity to optimize resources and improves the process:
- Within the desired timeframe
- Where they were planned
- In the order they were planned
The Stello Planner stands out as an indispensable tool for production, with the goal of contributing to the increase of productivity and competitiveness of the company´s production process.
To achieve this, its way of working is focused on three basic pilllars:
- To schedule and optimize
- To fine-tune the processes
- To support decision making

Green APS
The EIT Manufacturing Project
Green APS aims at bringing an AI-supported Energy Management Systems integrated to an Advanced Planning and Scheduling (APS) solution to the market, thus reducing energy consumption and carbon footprint of manufacturing companies.
Green APS addresses energy and production efficiency in industry by analyzing energy offer, demand and consumption variables, thus acquiring knowledge that will be used to minimize energy consumption per part produced while assuring customer service levels.
Objectives
Meet delivery deadlines; Minimize setup time, downtime and stoppages; Maximize the use of resources and subresources; Manage parallel operation overlaps. Use of mathematical algorithms to obtain, in a timely way, the optimum solution, enabling the use of various optimization criteria at the same time. Providing a graphical interface to support the user in navigation and decision making, intuitively, easily and comfortably.
Easy to Use
Track the simulations using several charts
Allows the interaction and visualisation of plans, with all operations by resource and time, links between them, general and specific data, delays, and other features
Allows the visualisation of their usage over time associated with the resources where they are needed
Allows the visualisation of their temporal arrangement, as well as the information about them
Allows the visualisation of all the information related to the different types of loads placed on the resources
