From a single plan to many viable options
Traditional scheduling tools typically produce one answer at a time. If priorities change, the process starts again.
EvoAPS works differently.
It continuously generates and evaluates multiple schedules in parallel, each measured against the strategies you define — such as service, efficiency, stability, or utilisation. This allows you to see trade-offs clearly and choose the option that best fits the situation.
Flexible ways to create schedules
EvoAPS can generate schedules in the way that best suits your operation:
- On demand, when planners want to explore options
- Automatically, at set times (for example overnight)
- Triggered by events, such as order completions, material arrivals, or disruptions
This ensures updated schedules are available when they’re needed — without constant manual intervention.
Automation with control built in
While EvoAPS can run continuously in the background, control always remains with your team.
Planners and leaders can:
- View results as they evolve
Pause generation and select the current best outcome
Compare alternatives side-by-side
Approve or reject schedules before release
Automation supports decision-making — it doesn’t replace it.
Protecting stability while staying agile
EvoAPS allows fixed planning windows to be defined, ensuring near-term production remains stable and protected from unnecessary change.
Beyond that window, the system continues to explore improvements, allowing teams to respond quickly to change without disrupting what’s already in motion.
This balance of stability and agility is critical in real-world operations.
Faster answers when it matters most
By exploring thousands of possibilities in minutes, EvoAPS dramatically reduces the time it takes to evaluate options and respond to change.
Instead of spending hours rebuilding schedules, teams gain rapid insight into:
- What can be achieved
- What trade-offs are involved
- Which option best supports current business goals
