We claim that our scientific software, Schedlyzer is the fastest and most versatile scheduling tool for a majority of job shops. We welcome any challenge to the
claim from other software vendors.

The gain from free trial
runs of Schedlyzer during the initial 30 days will exceed the total cost of ownership of the
tool in many cases. We offer a free trial version only after configuring the tool for your production system (without any cost for you).

For many job shops, finding an appropriate, affordable scheduling software is
more difficult than the scheduling problem itself.
Optisol presents a simple, powerful, reliable and user friendly scheduling tool,
Schedlyzer
to small and mid-sized job shops which regularly face a tough production scheduling problem.
The tool helps gain maximum productivity from a given set of resources, improve on-time delivery and reduce work in process. The
tool is very appropriate for high-mix, low-volume production and
project-oriented production.
Contact us for a free, fully functional, 30-day trial copy of the software.
Based on finite capacity scheduling logic, the tool always generates a schedule without overloading any resource. However, the user can specify any
capacities for resources and get the corresponding schedule within a few seconds. Based on the existing workload and resource capacities,
the tool finds right job start times such that job lead times are low and on-time delivery and resource utilization are high. Schedlyzer displays schedule output in many forms including job schedules, resource schedules and work center wise schedules.
The schedules for resources,
jobs and work centers
can also be saved in many
forms including
XML.
The predictive capability of the software facilitates fast and extensive what-if analysis of schedules
 with respect to changes in the available times and capacities of resources and the priorities, release times and due dates of jobs.
The reliable prediction of workflow and bottlenecks is very useful for capacity planning and production control in job shops. It also supports efficient capacity planning. The tool reveals, through a chart, bottleneck occurrences and job waiting times (between work stations) over the scheduling period. The tool projects daily resource utilization levels.
The versatile underlying paradigm of Schedlyzer is specifically developed to exploit the currently available power and memory of PCs.
The core scheduling logic of the tool is developed by a researcher who has 30 years of research and consulting experience in scheduling and optimization. The paradigm covers a wide spectrum of job shop production systems. 
The underlying scheduling model involves (1) generic precedence relations among jobs and among operations of any job, (2) multi-resource requirements of operations, (3) multi-functional machines / equipment and multi-skilled workers (4) generic work centers which are physical or conceptual, (5) mapping of machines and
workers to work centers and mapping of workers to skills. Schedlyzer permits very generic resource calendars and calendar exceptions.
Although the tool is based on advanced, rigorous scheduling logic, it
is simple and user friendly providing powerful graphic features and drag-and-drop options.
It
graphically shows resource utilization levels and bottlenecks over time.
 It does not require users to have rigorous training. Unlike numerous scheduling tools,
Schedlyzer does not require users to perform laborious and time-consuming drag-and-drop operations on Gantt chart to yield a decent production schedule. Schedlyzer can be used as a standalone scheduling software or it can be integrated with any popular ERP package. The tool serves as a powerful and intelligent electronic assistant to production schedulers.
The tool can help any scheduler who is seriously interested to get a decent and meaningful production schedule
within a minute even for tens of thousands of operations and hundreds of resources.
Schedlyzer
functionality
includes:
Fixing right due dates for new orders based on the process requirements and priority of the order, resource capacities and
the planned workload
Finding right times for loading jobs such that lead times are low and resource utilization is high
Predicting workflow, job completion times, and resource utilization over time
Identifying the moving bottlenecks in advance and making appropriate proactive decisions
Extensive what-if analysis of schedules and efficient dynamic capacity planning
Instantaneous rescheduling of workload.
The primary benefits of Schedlyzer are:
- Improved throughput
- Shorter lead times and higher on-time delivery
- Less inventory and higher resource utilization
- Quick, optimum response to changes in production
- Prediction of workflow and reduction of firefighting
- Better understanding of the dynamic nature of production system.
