Use Case: Scheduling and synchronization of semi-automatic operations

Sync your operations in real-time,
reduce your overall production delays with PlaniKast.

We mathematically optimize production schedules

Our platform, PlaniKast, simulates several scenarios to find the optimal production schedule and help planners understand the impact of their decisions, regardless of the type medication manufactured.

Reduce production lead time and improve OTIF

Reduce setup and changeover time

PlaniKast simulates different scenarios to find the optimal sequence of operations. It also helps planners understand the impact of their decision on scheduling.

Increase resilience 

Our platform automatically reoptimizes the planning when disruptions or delays happen so you can return to normal faster and increase operation resilience.

Increase efficiency and profitability

With an optimized schedule that reduces overall production lead time, you reduce operational costs and improve margins.

Why Kaster

  • Fast deployment:

    The integration and deployment phase is usually completed within a few weeks so drug manufacturers can see results quickly and see a positive ROI between 3 to 12 months.

  • Our expertise:

    Kaster was built by a team of industrial engineers, software developers and optimization specialists in partnership with Polytechnique Montréal, a public research university affiliated with Université de Montréal in Canada.

  • Algorithm that delivers high-quality planning recommendations:

    Integrated into your processes, our platform takes into account all production rules, constraints and objectives to perform simulations and automatically generate production plans that make the best use of available resources.
