The Ultimate Production Planning Crash Course

This course is perfect for anyone looking to enter the world of manufacturing. The instructor has packaged years of manufacturing experience into a concise but jam packed course. Students looking to get into production planning, scheduling, or industrial engineering should look no further.

The course is broken down into three sections:

Production Scheduling

In this section, students will learn the basics of scheduling products through a production system. The course covers building a bill of materials, determining lead times, understanding takt times, calculating WIP using Little's Law, and accounting for production yield.

Resource Planning

Students will learn to identify shared assets in a production system, and understand how resource constraints may impact a build schedule.  This course uses value stream maps and process times from a real auto manufacturing process to expose students to real world problems.

Capacity Analysis

Students will master capacity planning for a factory based on scheduled product deliveries and process time estimates. This section includes real world examples where students will learn the step by step process of sizing a workforce and projecting equipment needs.

After taking this class, students will have a skillset that allows them to work in production planning or scheduling. This course touches on all the fundamentals covered in an industrial engineering degree, and is a great value for the amount of topics covered.
