InQu.APS is a modular system for detailed planning and control. Based on multi-resources planning it performs an automated capacity balance between order inventory and availability of resources. The system reacts to current events within the production process regarding personnel, material, operating resources, order progress and other things and calculates periodically (automatically) new suggestions (forecasts) for the optimal allocation of limited resources.
