Building the right vehicle, at the right time, without disrupting your supply chain — that’s the challenge every automotive manufacturer faces. Whether you’re managing high-mix assembly lines, launching electric vehicles alongside ICE production, or trying to respond to dealer changes without destabilizing your suppliers, the complexity is relentless.
The Eyelit solution suite, Eyelit SIOP, Eyelit APS, and Eyelit MES helps take control. Our planning, scheduling, and execution solutions are purpose-built for the realities of automotive manufacturing, so you can increase throughput, reduce costs, and deliver on your commitments, even as complexity grows.
Outcome-led Automotive manufacturers run on tight margins and tighter timelines. The Eyelit solution suite integrates demand, distribution, production, and supplier planning end-to-end, so every layer of your operation works from the same plan.
Every plant operates differently. Easily support complex topologies, multiple body shops, shared buffers, and diverging trim lines, right out of the box.
When demand shifts, replanning usually creates supply chain chaos. The Eyelit APS makes only the changes that are truly necessary, keeping the build sequence stable while keeping the JIT/JIS suppliers synchronized.
Plan and sequence all work centers in one run. Most APS tools optimize body, paint, and trim separately, creating conflicts. The Eyelit APS optimizes the entire flow simultaneously, including re-entrant flows like to-tone paint, to keep production in sync.
Utilize forecasting methods that enable optimized decisions when key materials such as semiconductors are in short supply. Quantifying the probability of upside sales as well as downside risks enables the allocation optimization to make the best model, trim, option, and color level decisions.
Running ICE and BEV on the same lines requires tight sub-assembly synchronization. Model this complexity natively, helping you ramp up production with less operational risk.
Launching a new vehicle or adding BEV to an existing line carries real risk. Simulate sequencing strategies and validate feasibility before committing to costly physical changes.
Deciding which plant builds which orders involves constraints, logistics, and profitability, not just capacity. Eyelit optimizes allocation across your entire network so the right orders go to the right plants.
The system enables real-time management of WIP, inventory, assembly, and quality systems across both industries. This streamlining results in smoother operations, faster throughput, and reduced production costs.
Maximize production efficiency by optimizing capacity planning, resource allocation, and demand-capacity alignment for both automotive and industrial manufacturers, reducing bottlenecks and increasing output.
The MES and the APS solutions are specifically designed for both automotive and industrial sectors, addressing complex vehicle component manufacturing and the diverse needs of industries like battery production, electronics, and medical devices.
Complete forward and reverse traceability ensures control over quality in production. This is critical for handling recalls, quarantines, and maintaining brand reputation in the automotive industry, and similarly essential in industrial applications like battery manufacturing.
Offering a scalable, modular solution that adapts to both small-scale manufacturers and large enterprises, providing a low-cost approach to enhancing operational efficiency without significant investment in new systems.
The platform supports automation and real-time data collection across production workflows, giving live visibility of the status of production and enhancing both industries’ ability to monitor quality, adjust processes dynamically, and reduce manual interventions.
Ensures strict compliance with IATF 16949 in the automotive sector and ISO 9001 or FDA 21 CFR Part 11 in industrial manufacturing. Full traceability across all materials and processes helps manufacturers meet these stringent industry standards.
A major automotive OEM who has already deployed Eyelit Technologies’ APS requested help in dealing with supply chain instability. Material shortages from suppliers were leading to production issues.
