Bodhee Production Scheduling

From Rigid Schedules
to Resilient Operations.

When a batch extends, a reactor trips, or QC clears a hold, Bodhee Production Scheduling rebuilds the plant's schedule in minutes — against every live constraint. Built for pharmaceuticals, specialty chemicals, and process industries.

Built for batch and continuous process plants. Rebuilds schedules in minutes against live constraints.

The problem

Why production scheduling is broken in process manufacturing.

Legacy APS tools miss five structural realities of the plant. Each one creates avoidable instability, wasted capacity, and extra planner effort.

01

No response to live factory-floor data

Schedules become static the moment they're published. The floor moves. The schedule doesn't.

02

Cannot manage the full constraint universe

Process, equipment, materials, workforce, maintenance, quality — interacting non-linearly. Not modelled.

03

Rigid master data, no personalisation

Line A and Line B forced into the same model even when they operate differently.

04

Invisible indirect activities

Cleaning, changeover, QC, documentation consume 30%+ of time but aren't in the schedule.

05

Static plans in a dynamic plant

Production, QC, and Maintenance plan independently on schedules that can't replan, so conflicts surface late and teams spend time reconciling plans instead of executing them.

Meet Bodhee Production Scheduling

An enterprise SaaS product for production scheduling in process manufacturing.

Three techniques, one engine.

Bodhee combines constraint programming, multi-objective optimisation, and AI agents for event management — in a single engine designed for how process plants actually run.

Industry-agnostic, industry-proven.

Deployed in pharmaceuticals, specialty chemicals, and process industries. The engine is industry-agnostic; the configuration is plant-specific.

Three fundamental problems solved.

Optimised Schedule Generation. Agentic Rescheduling. Cross-Functional Schedule Synchronisation.

The five pillars

What Bodhee Production Scheduling does.

Pillar 01

Control & Manage Production Events

See every event in real time.

Pillar 02

Master Data with Visual Interface

Your plant, modelled the way it actually runs.
  • Line-level personalisation
  • Planner-editable — no IT required
  • Continuous accuracy improvement
Pillar 03

Optimised Schedule Generation

Schedules that actually execute.
  • Full constraint universe honoured
  • Dynamic bottleneck management
  • Minute-level granularity

Who it's for

Four roles. Four different reasons Bodhee earns its place.

Primary user

Production Planner / Scheduler

“I need to understand the impact of disruptions on the overall schedule, simulate alternatives, identify bottlenecks, and test process changes before committing them.”

Scheduling effort drops 60–80%. Simulation replaces the overnight rebuild. Every recommendation is explainable.

End users

Operators & Supervisors

“When something goes wrong on my shift, I need to know immediately: what do I do next, and can we still meet today's targets?”

A live schedule on the floor — not a paper plan from yesterday morning. Event visibility within seconds.

Economic buyer

Plant Manager / Unit Head

“Am I utilising my plant capacity optimally? Despite disruptions, how do I achieve my business goals effectively?”

OEE improves 10–15 pp. Cross-functional capacity recovers by 10–15%. Defensible commitments to the business.

Technical buyer

Digital / IT Leaders

“How does this fit into our existing IT landscape? Will it integrate cleanly, scale across sites, and meet our data-governance requirements?”

API-first, cloud-native, with enterprise-grade integrations for regulated manufacturing environments.

Customer journey

Three phases to production.

1

Assess

Maturity assessment and deployment roadmap. What's in place, what needs building, where Bodhee plugs in.

2

Configure

Plant-specific configuration — master data enrichment, constraint modelling, integrations with ERP/MES/QMS/LIMS/SCADA.

3

Go Live

Parallel run. Iterative rollout. Model calibration. Ongoing improvement with the planning team.

How Bodhee is different

Three reasons this isn't the APS tool you've seen before.

01

Cross-functional integration as a first-class capability.

The only scheduling system where an event in Production, QC, or Maintenance triggers synchronised rescheduling across all three — automatically.

02

Agentic rescheduling, not static rules.

AI agents watch the floor, classify events, and invoke the scheduling engine within minutes — instead of waiting for planners to rebuild the schedule by hand.

03

Purpose-built for process manufacturing.

Constraint programming and multi-objective optimisation designed for batch and continuous process plants — not adapted from discrete-manufacturing paradigms.
