Which order first, and what does the choice cost us for all the others?
Circonomit calculates the order sequence for metalworking and job-shop companies with short cycles, high order volume and tight capacity. One number you can defend.
Every sequencing decision costs margin. The only question is how much.
Many orders, short cycles, tight capacity — every day you decide which order goes on the machine next. Which sequence delivers the highest contribution margin, nobody calculates.
Your ERP shows what is planned. Your BDE shows what was. Which sequence balances on-time delivery, utilization and margin best — that is in no system.
Every decision for one order is a decision against others. That price is booked nowhere, but it exists.
Circonomit calculates the optimal sequence for your shop.
Your ERP manages orders. Circonomit calculates the optimal sequence. Which sequence maximizes contribution margin, on-time delivery and utilization simultaneously? The result is a number, not an opinion.
Model
First the problem is structured: which orders are pending? Which machines are available? Which setup times, due dates, margins are binding? Circonomit connects your data and your planners’ knowledge into a calculable model.
Simulate
What happens if a large order is pulled forward? What does a setup sequence that saves capacity but endangers due dates cost? Circonomit simulates all relevant scenarios before you decide.
Optimize
Circonomit calculates the sequence that, under your real conditions, produces the highest contribution margin. Not the theoretical maximum, the achievable optimum. With an explicit price for every alternative.
The optimal sequence. For your shop.
The result: a calculated model for your order sequence, with three to five quantified scenarios and an explicit cost-benefit comparison per alternative. You know which sequence best balances contribution margin, utilization and on-time delivery, and what every deviation concretely costs.
Decisions with a number, not a gut feel.
You see which order sequence optimizes margin, utilization and on-time delivery simultaneously — calculated, not estimated.
Every deviation carries a price. Circonomit makes it visible before you decide.
No new data project. Circonomit works with your existing data from ERP, BDE or Excel.
What you want to know.
Q:
Does this work for pure job-shop business?
A:
Yes — job-shop with many small orders, short cycles and tight capacity is typically exactly the context where calculated sequencing has the highest leverage. Circonomit represents setup times, machine groups and margin differences explicitly.
Q:
What does the pilot concretely deliver after 3 weeks?
A:
A calculated model for the agreed sequencing problem, based on your real data. Three to five quantified scenarios with an explicit cost-benefit comparison per alternative. A comparison against current practice. The success criterion is agreed in writing before work starts. Fixed price: EUR 7,500 net.
Q:
What if our data is incomplete?
A:
Circonomit works with what you have. Missing data we replace in the first step with structured expert knowledge from your planners — that is explicitly part of the modelling approach.
