Why CastLogic Schedule Wins
True AI
Not just rules-based logic. Real machine learning that gets smarter with every schedule.
Native ERP
Scheduling isn't bolted onโit's built into the same database as your financials, inventory, and HR.
Proven Results
Our customers report 10-25% lead time reduction and improved on-time delivery.
Scheduling: The Core of Your Entire Operation
CastLogic Schedule isn't just another moduleโit's the foundation that drives every other part of your business. When your production schedule changes, everything else updates automatically.
Stock
Schedule triggers material orders based on production needs
Accounting
Costs flow from schedule to job costing automatically
HR & Payroll
Labor allocations drive crew assignments and time tracking
Dispatch
Delivery dates come directly from production completion
Engage
Promise dates to customers based on real capacity
Flow
Shop floor executes what the schedule prioritizes
One Schedule. One Truth.
Unlike disconnected systems where different departments have different versions of reality, CastLogic has one production schedule that every module references in real-time.
Change the schedule once โ Inventory, accounting, labor, delivery, and sales all update automatically. No spreadsheets. No manual syncing. No version conflicts.
The Power of Integrated Scheduling in Your ERP
Most scheduling systems operate in spreadsheets. CastLogic Schedule connects AI-driven planning directly to inventory, labor, and financial systems.
โ Manual Spreadsheet Scheduling
- โข Manual spreadsheet scheduling with no real-time updates
- โข Frequent rescheduling due to poor optimization
- โข No capacity visibility across molds and labor
- โข Late deliveries from capacity misjudgment
- โข Inefficient resource use and overtime costs
- โข Customer promise dates not linked to planning
โ CastLogic AI Scheduling
- โ AI-optimized schedules updated in real-time
- โ Automated capacity planning across all constraints
- โ Constraint-based scheduling with mold/labor visibility
- โ Predictive lead time estimates
- โ 10-25% faster production through optimization
- โ Delivery commitments drive production priorities
