Equipment states
Setup, processing, transfer, waiting, cleaning, sterilization, maintenance, and available states.
Biomanufacturing scheduling software
Biomanufacturing scheduling software for finite-capacity plant planning.
Build a finite-capacity campaign schedule across reactors, downstream assets, rooms, operators, inventories, utilities, CIP/SIP, maintenance, holds, release, and changeovers.
Shared resources
Rooms, labor, utilities, skids, tanks, storage, QC queues, and transfer paths.
Capacity
Occupancy, cycle time, feasible batches, lateness, WIP, utilization, and bottlenecks.
What-if plans
Parallel capacity, campaign sequence, cleaning reduction, outsourcing, and demand changes.
Finite-capacity model basis
What a decision-useful biomanufacturing schedule must calculate.
A capacity model follows every batch through recipes, equipment states and shared-resource constraints. It must explain why a batch waits, which asset limits output and how a proposed change alters the feasible campaign.Recipes, events and asset states
Define setup, charge, process, sample, transfer, hold, clean, sterilize and release events with predecessor logic, duration ranges and eligible equipment pools. Reusable reactors, tanks, columns and skids return to service only after the required cleaning, changeover, maintenance and readiness steps finish.
Calendars, materials and shared resources
Constrain rooms, operators, utilities, buffer and media preparation, storage, QC, waste handling and transfer paths alongside the main equipment. Add shift calendars, planned downtime, inventory limits, shelf life, maximum hold times and campaign rules so nominal cycle time does not masquerade as achievable capacity.
Capacity and scenario outputs
Report batch start and finish, equipment occupancy, waiting cause, queue length, WIP, inventory, utility peaks, cleaning load, lateness, utilization and the active bottleneck. Compare added equipment, parallel trains, campaign sequence, batch size and demand scenarios on the same annual basis.
