ABSTRACT

The demands required by complex processes led to the development of solutions that could simultaneously treat multiple sources, processes and operations in order to enable the management of production as the conditions of the moment (production mix, machine stoppages, tight deadlines, changes priorities, …). The segment of maintenance in most situations coexists with this context, but using as the same programming techniques for projects. The daily schedule of services in company's central workshops or in service providers puts the programmer in situations where project management techniques often fail to resolve such rules, and end up using only his experience, which is limited by human ability to manage multiple information and operations. In these situations the concepts of the Theory of Constraints and implementation of software of considering resource Finite Capacity to Advanced Scheduling fit to the situation. Besides programming, you can have more control of what happens with the equipment through monitoring using the concept of MES (Management Execution System), to take immediate action on small still or falling income. The concept also includes monitoring the condition of components in the repairs during the process by connecting to the existing inventory of spare parts. These change the paradigm of aid maintenance schedule allowing significant gains in resource productivity maintenance. This paper presents 2 cases applying the production scheduling and the concept of MES.
