CERM has confirmed the release of its renewed Scheduling Optimizer, a browser-based application designed specifically for the packaging printing industry. Seamlessly integrated with the CERM MIS, the tool brings rule-based automation to scheduling — helping printers save time, reduce complexity, and focus on what really matters.
At the heart of the CERM Scheduling Optimizer lies a powerful optimisation engine. It allows printers to define their own scheduling rules based on standard MIS data, custom fields, or printer-specific requirements. Whether the optimal schedule involves minimizing switch-over times, prioritizing key customers, or managing bottlenecks, the application adapts to each production environment.
The Scheduling Optimizer automatically schedules complete production jobs within seconds, dynamically re-adjusting the full production chain as new jobs or updates arise. This ensures not just optimised schedules, but also a clear overview of bottlenecks and productivity opportunities within the process.
With order volumes increasing, printshops expanding, and deadlines tightening, the renewed CERM Scheduling Optimizer is the choice for printers that look to take the most out of their equipment and production infrastructure. By automating routine tasks, it frees up scheduling teams to focus on the customers and jobs that make the biggest impact.
