Your industry. Your planning tasks.
Whether you manufacture to customer order (make-to-order) or release planned orders through a push process: Apex connects operations, resource availability and delivery priorities in a detailed schedule. These workflows focus on discrete parts, assemblies and packing jobs.
Explore Apex schedulingOrder scheduling. Simple. Efficient.
Automate routine work. Optimize operations. Meet deadlines.
Decide faster.
Compare scenarios. Work through chat. Make informed decisions.
Easy to adapt.

Keep your existing systems.
An AI add-on for your planning. No system switch. Runs locally.
Today, the planner manually reconciles Excel and ERP or MES. With Apex, an AI agent prepares data from connected systems and creates planning alternatives. The planner sets priorities, reviews the result and releases the plan. The animation illustrates the workflow, not measured processing times.
