Planning is an activity for clarifying

actions or operations to achieve

a given goal and reserve enough

resource capacity to hit minimum

targets.


Scheduling is an activity for

allocating actions and operations

to particular resources at particular

times, talking into account various

actual constraints and optimization

of several evaluation parameters.

Promatica scheduling solutions deliver scheduling algorithms and systems for a wide range of business processes. They are built on The Bridge platform with advanced graphics, calendars, resource models and smart network modeling.


As an example, the collaboration mechanism combined with integrated scheduling methods allows us to integrate and synchronize concurrent events such as crew for flights, including catering, cargo and technical inspections tasks before take-off. Similar challenges face many organizations such as health care surgery teams and most other cross functional teams.


Promatica has invented a scheduling “agent" called “Pac-man” to optimize special events like collecting maintenance tasks on aircraft “hangar stops” or any other special planning requirement.


The Bridge Smart Network provides user and solution developers with an advanced object model with easily definable properties and dependencies. Integrated resource modeling with the smart network reduces the complexity of writing new scheduling algorithms.


The Bridge platform is unique and built as a professional development platform for planning and scheduling solutions.
