Your planners arrive at 6 AM to check if lines ran ahead or behind overnight. Your ERP schedules 150 hours into 100-hour weeks because it cannot calculate actual capacity. After every MRP run, material planners scramble to call suppliers. Production planning is what closes the gap between schedule and reality.
Capture every invoice, in every format
Suppliers send invoices as PDFs, emails, scans, and portal uploads, often in different languages and layouts. Lleverage reads all of them and pulls out the supplier, totals, and every line automatically. Touchless processing on first run lands at 60 to 80%, and climbs above 90% as your team confirms exceptions.
01
Learn patterns from your production data
02
Generate optimal sequences and schedules
03
Flag overbookings and bottlenecks
04
Replan instantly when lines go down
Forecast capacity across weeks and lines
Identify overbooked weeks before they happen. Lleverage models your forecast against actual capacity, surfaces what to pull forward, and calculates the lead-time impact. Your team sees the bottleneck a week early, not the morning the customer calls.
Captures customer orders from email, EDI 850, scans, and portal exports
Matches lines to your item master, customer contracts, and capacity windows
Flags unknown customers, capacity gaps, missing references, and duplicate entries
Works across formats: email, PDF, Excel, EDI 850, customer portals, and scans
Manage shortages without losing customers
When forecasts swing, Lleverage shows who is behind on targets, calculates the impact of volume changes, and flags which customers cannot be shorted. Planners get a ranked list of trade-offs instead of a panicked phone call.
Manual planning per cycle: 2 hours
Under 15 min
Uses your line constraints, changeover rules, and customer priorities
Gets more accurate as your planners confirm sequences
Writes plans straight back to SAP, Dynamics 365, Business Central, Infor, or your MES
Replan in real time when lines go down
When a line goes down, Lleverage instantly recalculates which items move to alternative lines, whether to split batches, what the lead-time impact is, and which forecasts to adjust. No waiting for tomorrow's planning meeting.
“We've already automated three core business processes, and this is just the start.”

Implementation timeline
Live in four weeks across one bottleneck cluster
Pick your most constrained cluster, often the bottleneck cluster or the one that always runs over plan. Lleverage automates that first, measures the throughput improvement, then expands across lines.
Week 1
Connect lines and analyze efficiency data
Connect Lleverage to your ERP, MES, and line-level data. Audit the patterns where schedules slip daily, changeover bottlenecks, capacity bursts, and customer priority conflicts.
Week 2
Configure rules and run shadow mode
Run planning in shadow mode. Lleverage proposes sequences, capacity reallocations, and shortage trade-offs. Your planners review and approve, the model learns from every decision.
Week 4
Full production planning in autonomous mode
Switch to autonomous mode for the lines and rules your team has approved. Planning time drops from 2 hours to 15 minutes per cycle. Throughput improves 15 to 25 percent. Planners focus on customers, not Tetris.

FAQs
Everything you want to know about production planning automation
Our production data is not clean enough for automation
Lleverage does not need perfect changeover matrices or complete logs. It learns from patterns: which sequences run ahead of plan, which combinations cause overruns, which customers always get prioritised. Real improvements come from messy, real-world production data, not theoretical capacity models.
How does this work with our customised ERP?
Lleverage connects via available APIs to your on-premise or cloud ERP. Start standalone to prove value before deeper integration. Many customers run Lleverage in parallel with their existing planning process for months. Your daily MRP run stays unchanged.
Will planners resist automation?
Lleverage learns your specific constraints: which products need certain equipment, which combinations work best, why different lines have different bottlenecks. It adapts to your actual production reality, not theoretical capacity. Planners review and approve, they stay in control.
What about our complex product constraints?
Your rules already exist somewhere, in your ERP, your Excel sheets, or in your team's heads. Lleverage codifies them into reusable, testable workflows. Complex routing rules, customer-specific priorities, and equipment-product compatibility all become automated, auditable logic.
Can it handle last-minute changes?
When key customers swing volumes by 50 percent or more, Lleverage instantly calculates the impact, suggests alternative sequences, and shows the true cost of weekend overtime. Real-time replanning, not tomorrow's scramble.
