AI software to schedule production and keep orders and delivery dates under control
Operativo connects finite-capacity scheduling, tablet shop-floor updates, and AI on real production data: promise reliable dates, keep the floor aligned, and see which orders are at risk before they are late.
Does this sound familiar?
Your plan breaks every week
A rush order lands, a machine stops, an operator is missing. You spend hours rebuilding the schedule.
"When will it be ready?"
A customer calls and you cannot answer with confidence. You have to reconstruct the situation across the shop floor, spreadsheets, and memory.
Excel is no longer enough
With too many orders and too many variables, the spreadsheet stops being a plan. It becomes another problem to manage.
Scheduling and production control in one platform
The core is an always-updated production plan. Around it, you get MES progress tracking, WMS inventory, ERP integrations, and AI on real data: operational control, not a pile of separate tools.
Scheduler
Automatic finite-capacity planning with drag-and-drop Gantt.
MES
Operators report progress from a tablet while you see everything in real time.
WMS
Integrated warehouse management with locations, picking, and inventory.
Integrated AI
Ask for a new view, a simulation, or a change. The AI works on real data and prepares outputs for review.
How it works
From planning to execution, everything stays connected in real time
Plan from desktop
Operativo builds the schedule around real capacity, skills, shifts, setups, and constraints.
The shop floor updates from tablet
Each operator sees the job queue and reports progress, quantities, and completion in a few taps.
Everything updates in real time
Dashboards, KPIs, and delivery dates update automatically so you know where to intervene immediately.
Practical rollout
How we start in 7 days
Setup does not start as a long IT project. We start from the data you already have, configure the operating model, and quickly reach a usable first schedule.
What we need to start
- Open orders
- Routings or work phases
- Resources, machines, or departments
- Shifts and calendars
- ERP or Excel export, if available
Full ERP and external system integrations can come later: to validate value and workflow, an initial data baseline is enough.
Import orders, routings, and resources
We start from your ERP, Excel exports, or existing files to create a clean operating baseline.
Configure shifts, constraints, and skills
We add capacity, calendars, competencies, setup times, and the real rules of the factory.
Generate the first schedule
We schedule orders on finite resources and review dates, workloads, and priorities together.
The shop floor updates from tablet
Operators and managers start recording progress, quantities, and issues in real time.
See the product in action
From scheduling to production dashboards: watch how Operativo moves from plan to live data in seconds.
Automatic scheduling
Load orders, run the algorithm, and get a feasible schedule in seconds while respecting constraints and capacity.
Production dashboard
Track every order in real time and spot delays or intervention points immediately.
What changes in practice?
Reliable delivery dates
When a customer calls, you can answer immediately with a plan based on real capacity.
Rescheduling in seconds
Rush order? Machine stopped? One click and you have a new plan.
Visible bottlenecks
See where work is piling up and which resources are creating delays.
You decide, the system executes
Adjust the plan with drag and drop without breaking consistency across constraints.
New views and features from chat
Ask for a dashboard, a simulation, or an operational change. Every change is proposed, reviewed, and approved before release.
How long does it take to reschedule 500 orders?
Not Excel, not a €200k APS project
Operativo is the middle ground: powerful enough for real production constraints, simple enough for an SME to adopt quickly.
Excel
Fast to start, fragile as orders and constraints grow.
Operativo
Operational control without an enterprise project.
Enterprise APS
Powerful, but often too long and heavy for an SME.
| Excel | Operativo | Enterprise APS | |

| Setup | Immediate | 1 week | 3-12 months |
| Finite capacity | × | ✓ | ✓ |
| Rescheduling | Hours | Seconds | Minutes |
| Integrated MES + WMS | × | ✓ | Extra |

| Learning curve | Low | Half a day | Weeks |
Chosen by Italian manufacturing SMEs
Operativo was built alongside companies that actually run make-to-order production with high variability and constantly changing priorities.
Real case: MEB Srl
From Excel and paper to controlled production with live data
MEB managed orders, progress, and priorities across Excel, paper sheets, and verbal updates. With Operativo, planning, shop floor, and management moved into the same system.
Before
Constant 2-3 week delays, hand-written progress updates, and priorities reconstructed by the shop-floor manager.
After
Digital progress tracking, shared dashboards, visible workloads, and an updated plan based on real shop-floor data.
Results
2-3 weeks
of delays eliminated
Excel and paper
removed from the operating flow
Capacity
increased without new staff
