JobPack centralizes scheduling and production management for multiple machines at a single location. The Windows-based program is said to increase machine and operator productivity up to 35% by determining the most efficient production schedule and automating a multitude of tasks.

An integrated architecture based on a MS SQL Server ensures functionality and product stability. Images can be added to the production schedule and process documentation. An explorer-like graphical interface offers an overview of product-manufacturing structure and real-time process information.

The program's scheduler plans and controls job flow to improve on-time delivery. It reschedules over and under-capacity on work centers and on-time percentages for activated jobs.

Other features include finite scheduling and load balancing on work centers. A statistic feature generates reports showing on-time and late deliveries as they happen. The company offers three levels of lean-manufacturing solutions for reducing inventory, cutting lead times, and increasing on-time deliveries.
