Allocation of Operations

32
dataCon reserves on a quarterly basis a fixed percentage of total shop floor capacity to ensure customers' forecasts for pilot or recurring builds are delivered on time, just in time, or slightly ahead of schedule. Shop floor release schedules are monitored for work in process (WIP) movement and tracking. Depending upon forecasted customer needs and requirements, dataCon will adjust shift loads or add resources to meet customer delivery and quality expectations.






Materials Planning

33
The quick turn methodology developed for prototype assembly work is frequently leveraged in follow-on, periodic releases to avoid schedule compression and delays. Previously negotiated risk buy agreements also allow for advanced procurement of long lead time materials. Also, previously negotiated risk buy material agreements help minimize the probability of "line down" or work flow disruptions caused by material shortages.








Line Balancing

34
Monthly shop floor scheduling is optimized and load leveled by comparing bookings forecasts with shipments to reduce the end of month or end of quarter delivery compression. Customers predictably receive what they ordered, for a fair price, according to a pre-arranged schedule for shipments.






Product Realization

35
Most customers who engage with dataCon early in a product life cycle realize shorter times to market, ongoing life cycle materials planning plus several other total cost of ownership benefits. We would appreciate the opportunity to discuss your product requirements and needs in more detail. Please contact us.
