In the end, you find yourself stuck in traffic and can\u2019t get around it. <\/p>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/FluxMES-planungsalgorithmus-e1592308599353.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3182\" width=\"273\" height=\"273\"\/><figcaption>&#8230; and the traffic jam?  <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These days, hardly anyone plans their trips that way. People use online services or navigation systems that handle the planning based on your preferences and adjust your route\u2014even before you get stuck in traffic.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So what does this have to do with skill-based planning? In many companies, production orders are still planned semi-automatically or even manually. The production order comes in and is broken down into the necessary work steps. The work steps are then assigned to the appropriate workstations\u2014perhaps still using a planning board. At this stage, questions such as \u201cIs the workstation already staffed?\u201d or \u201cAre there any issues at the workstations?\u201d must already have been answered.    <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Skill-based planning solves all these problems. In this approach, the work steps for the item to be produced are defined once. Initially, these work steps are no longer directly linked to a workstation. This is because not only do employees need specific skills to use a particular workstation, but work steps also have requirements regarding the \u201cskills\u201d that the workstation must provide.   <\/p>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/26052020_Flux-Grafik_Blogbeitrag-1-1024x439.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3184\"\/><figcaption>  Skill Matching Using Planning Algorithms  <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you start planning a production order in this skill-based world, a planning algorithm\u2014similar to a navigation system\u2014performs the following steps:<\/p>\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>The algorithm analyzes the work tasks to determine the skills required for them<\/li><li>Based on these skills, he identifies all potential job openings<\/li><li>He now assigns the work steps according to their order, the availability of workstations, and the availability of staff<\/li><\/ol>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The result is a fully automated production order\u2014your route through the manufacturing process.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Would you like to learn more about skill-based scheduling in Flux MES?<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Please feel free to contact us  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">info@flux-mes.de<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Imagine this: Before every car trip, you pull out &#8230; <\/p>\n<p class=\"read-more-container\"><a title=\"Start-up BW Pre-Seed Presents: FluxMES\u2014Production Planning Without &#8220;Bottlenecks&#8221;\" class=\"read-more button\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tfu.de\/en\/start-up-bw-pre-seed-presents-fluxmes-production-planning-without-bottlenecks\/#more-15486\" aria-label=\"Read more about Start-up BW Pre-Seed Presents: FluxMES\u2014Production Planning Without &#8220;Bottlenecks&#8221;\">weiterlesen &#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":1310,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[95,81,87],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-15486","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-a-personal-note","category-networks-and-contacts","category-pre-seed","tfu-start-up-bw-pre-seed-presents-fluxmes-production-planning-without-bottlenecks"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tfu.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15486","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tfu.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tfu.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tfu.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tfu.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15486"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.tfu.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15486\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":15489,"href":"https:\/\/www.tfu.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15486\/revisions\/15489"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tfu.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1310"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tfu.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15486"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tfu.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15486"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tfu.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15486"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
