Transforming Production Planning at TKG Taekwang with VMS Solutions

In a significant advancement for the global footwear industry, VMS Solutions has successfully implemented its production planning solution, MOZART 3.0, for TKG Taekwang. Known for its expertise in footwear development and manufacturing, TKG Taekwang has been at the forefront of the industry for over 50 years. This strategic deployment aims to enhance the agility and responsiveness of TKG Taekwang's production planning, vital in today's complex manufacturing environment.

Meeting the Challenges of Complex Manufacturing

The footwear industry is increasingly characterized by a variety of production orders and complex manufacturing requirements. As global demands evolve, manufacturers must adapt and refine their processes to keep pace. TKG Taekwang faced significant hurdles with its existing legacy systems, which operated independently, often hampering the efficient management of production plans across multiple sites. The need to regenerate the entire production plan even for minor changes resulted in extended planning cycles and excessive manual effort.

The Deployment of MOZART 3.0

By adopting MOZART 3.0, TKG Taekwang gains the capability to manage production plans centrally across all its manufacturing sites. This innovative solution provides the flexibility to replan only those specific production lines impacted by operational changes—an essential feature, considering the fast-moving nature of the industry. The planning engine of MOZART 3.0 integrates interactive editing capabilities, allowing for a dynamic approach to planning that reflects the complexities of the footwear manufacturing environment.

Previously, the management of product classifications and production criteria was a time-consuming and challenging task for planners. Thanks to the intuitive handling of production conditions and mixed-product rules offered by MOZART 3.0, these challenges have been significantly mitigated, allowing for smoother master data management.

The interactive nature of MOZART 3.0 empowers planners to visualize system-generated plans on their screens and make real-time adjustments based on actual shop-floor conditions, thereby enhancing operational responses and efficiency.

Remarkable Improvements in Planning Speed

Following the deployment of VMS Solutions’ MOZART 3.0, TKG Taekwang has reported a remarkable increase in execution speed for major planning scenarios. The planning speed has surged by approximately four to five times compared to the previous systems. This significant enhancement allows for simultaneous planning generation across multiple subsidiaries, with the facility to selectively replan only the lines necessitated by changes, drastically cutting down on planning lead times.

Moreover, the automation capabilities embedded in MOZART 3.0 have led to a reduction in the manual workload for planners by over 50%, empowering them to focus on strategic tasks rather than administrative ones.

Enhanced Flexibility and Overall Efficiency

The improvements realized through VMS Solutions' latest implementation have fortified TKG Taekwang’s production planning efficiency. TKG Taekwang acknowledges that the newfound capability for selective replanning and quicker adjustments to planning priorities according to real operational demands are significant benefits stemming from the solution. This agility is essential in an industry where change is constant and customer expectations are high.

Conclusion

VMS Solutions’ partnership with TKG Taekwang exemplifies how advanced technology can revolutionize traditional manufacturing processes. By integrating planning across multiple sites and facilitating selective adjustments, MOZART 3.0 empowers global manufacturers to navigate the complexities of modern production landscapes. VMS Solutions continues to pioneer tools that streamline production planning, enabling manufacturers to respond effectively in an ever-evolving market.
