Operativo production scheduler - Interactive finite-capacity Gantt for manufacturing SMEs

Main capabilities

Finite-capacity scheduling

Operativo builds the plan accounting for real production constraints: operator skills, shifts, setup times, phase dependencies, and bottlenecks. When a priority changes, it recomputes everything in 2-5 seconds.

  • Reduces setup changeovers when possible
  • Assigns work and operators respecting real constraints
  • Interactive drag & drop finite-capacity Gantt
  • Simulate the impact of an urgent order before accepting it

Order management

You always know where every order stands and which deliveries are at risk. Import from ERP or Excel and get a single view on progress, priority, and delays.

  • Import from ERP / Excel
  • Instant view of order status and priority
  • Automatic alerts for orders at risk of delay

Real-time production control

See immediately what is happening on the shop floor, where work is piling up, and where to intervene before the delay reaches the customer.

  • Machine and operator status
  • Live shop floor KPIs and performance
  • Instant alerts on downtime and issues

Resource management

Assign operators and machines accounting for skills, shifts, and availability. The plan stays realistic even when the shop floor changes.

  • Skill matrix to assign the right people to the right tasks
  • Flexible calendars and shifts
  • Maintenance management
  • Attendance management

ERP integration without endless projects

Connecting an MES to your ERP is often what blocks everything. Operativo offers multiple paths to integrate even with legacy ERPs, without turning the project into an IT marathon.

  • Operativo Connector: connects databases and legacy ERPs without touching the ERP core.
  • Open REST API: to connect Operativo to ERPs, CRMs, and external software.
  • Webhooks: to automatically update other systems when something changes in production.
