aheadAPS is a cloud-based solution that acts as a HUB platform between the CAD, ERP and MES systems to cover the specific business processes of the precast concrete industry. Highlights include BIM / BCF integration (Digital Twin), 3D stacking, 3D production planning and daily capacity and production overviews.
Integration with RISE with SAP S/4Hana Cloud
Plugs in easily to existing systems with reduced maintenance
Scalable solutions to have fully BIM-driven processes
Enables manufacturers to deliver and produce more efficiently
Scalable Plug&Play solution
aheadAPS can be easily plugged in to your existing system and does not require a lot of maintenance.
It is also a scalable solution to have fully BIM driven processes for your business.
With SAP certification, our interface has been tested and verified for smooth integration with SAP.
Total transparency
aheadAPS enables manufactures to deliver on time and produce more efficiently. This benefits your business, because it leads to growing sales with quicker lead-times, reduced unit costs with more efficient production runs and improved decisions with capacity visibility & scenarios and analytics.
Optimized delivery planning
With the integrated stackplan transport stacks can be created and also the stability and the weight distribution of the stacks can be monitored. Using the details from the BIM model, the transport stacks of the precast concrete parts can be easily created according to the construction sequence. And with one click also the loading list of the transport stacks can be printed.
Machine control
aheadAPS is not only a planning tool, it controls also the machines and sends data to laser, plotter and saw to increase accuracy in production and minimize sources of errors.
With a real-time data flow, it is also possible to react quickly to changes and adapt production asap.
What software can be used for the production of hollow core slabs?
Progress Software Development offers integrated end-to-end control and software for the production of hollow core slabs. Design in Autodesk Revit, planning, machine control, material and quality management, and logistics are covered by smart software solutions.
Integrated ERP, MES, and BIM data flows facilitate exchange between systems, allowing plan changes to be implemented efficiently.
