Process manufacturing

Recipe management Streamline your production process. Visually define recipes to make a batch with co-products and by-products. Batch execution Digitally transform your factory. Leverage Oracle’s best-in-class capabilities to complete batch with co-products and by-products. Cost management Effectively monitor batch manufacturing costs and variances by plant and determine the root causes for cost variances. Closed-loop quality Capture and analyze quality data. Predict potential issues and take corrective action throughout the manufacturing lifecycle. Genealogy Capture genealogy for track and trace of lot and serialized products to maintain compliance with local regulations. Compliance Comply with regulations by capturing electronic records and signatures at the critical points for good manufacturing practices (GMPs).

Mixed-mode manufacturing

Production execution flexibility Execute production based on make-to-stock, make- to- order, configure-to-order, engineer-to-order, or make-to-project. Differentiate by work method Determine the ideal method for each stage of production such as using process for bulk processing and discrete for packaging. Consistent processes Share the same dispatch list, production-reporting, and quality inspections for a consistent shop floor experience. Cost management Effectively monitor manufacturing costs and variances by plant and determine the root causes for cost variances. Closed-loop quality Capture and analyze quality data. Predict potential issues and take corrective actions throughout the manufacturing lifecycle. Genealogy and compliance Capture genealogy for track-and-trace of lot and serialized products to maintain compliance with local regulations.

Production scheduling

Create high-quality, executable schedules Use real-time resource availability and work orders to create feasible schedules that take the latest material, capacity, and calendar constraints into account. Increase factory throughput and reduce work in process inventory, waste, and expedites. Optimize changeovers to minimize downtime Increase throughput and asset utilization by grouping work orders based on your industry attributes, minimizing changeovers and idle time. Resolve shop floor bottlenecks Schedule work order operations with your desired attribute sequence to maximize the efficiency of your production lines. Visualize how work order operations are allocated to resources and reduce bottlenecks by offloading to alternate resources. Simulate the impact of schedule changes Easily inspect schedules and analyze production issues in a visual Gantt chart. Make drag-and-drop adjustments and edit dispatch lists as necessary. Run quick, in-line simulations and what-ifs to resolve issues. Minimize the effect of unplanned downtime Run and repair schedules dynamically to deal with unexpected machine outages, labor shortages, material delays, and changes in order priorities. Release adjusted schedules as needed during the day for instant shop floor execution. Proactively monitor your shop floor Evaluate how your factory is scheduled at a glance, with interactive analytics that reveal insights about changeover time, resource utilization, and late orders.

Project-driven supply chain

Serve multiple projects Segment your supply chain operations to serve multiple projects from a common set of resources in a plant. Execute by project Manage order management, procurement, material, manufacturing, and service by a specific project. Cost by project Ensure the right material, resources, and costs are allocated to the right project. Differentiate by customer Manufacture and purchase products including deal-specific R&D or services. Project-based billing Capture project expenditures in Oracle Project Portfolio Management and bill based on project contract rules.

Contract manufacturing

Flexible production Outsource one or multiple work order operations, an assembly, or a sub-assembly based on your plant’s internal and external capacity. Supplier collaboration Streamline contract manufacturing processes by using the supplier portal. Collaborate with suppliers using industry standard protocol. Consign material Buy material and consign it to your contract manufacturer, without losing visibility to your financial liability. Multi-tier visibility Plan, execute, and view status across all internal and external manufacturing sites, allowing you to control quality and cost. Orchestrated processes Orchestrate the movement of goods and the financial transactions to buy and sell the materials and the build service. Genealogy, quality, and compliance Capture genealogy for track-and-trace and manage data quality to maintain your compliance with regulations.

Smart Operations for manufacturing

Operator workbench Empower operators via a digital, frictionless experience, including guided step-by-step instructions and all the information they need to complete their manufacturing tasks. Production supervisor workbench Equip supervisors with real-time visibility so they can monitor shift performance and make data-driven decisions to resolve issues that interfere with operational performance. Connected equipment Automate business processes based on rule-driven machine events from connected equipment. Contextualize real-time operational data with business data and digital technologies to drive execution decisions and processes. AI-powered platform Use AI to generate operator shift notes and production shift reports and summaries to reduce the time spent on non–value-added activities.
