Tactic overview

What is Tactic?

TACTIC helps manufacturers with daily operations by streamlining the planning and scheduling of resources to meet production targets. Users can use the platform to change manufacturer schedules, monitor progress, and improve customer service. As a production company expands, the software reorganizes operations to avoid breakdowns in schedules. Manufacturers can also plan resources and estimate delivery dates to increase customer satisfaction.

The production planning software aims to replace cumbersome spreadsheets and wallboards. TACTIC software maintains schedules and keeps planners up-to-date through the automation order changes. The schedule planner can also identify problems, highlight bottlenecks, and inform manufacturers and customers of potential delays or late orders. The platform offers integration support for most ERP systems, and then it uses shared data to create accurate schedules and increase the efficiency of overtime use.
