Finite Scheduling for High-Mix Shops
Google Maps for Manufacturing
Some mornings there are 200 operations past due, and someone re-dates every one of them by hand. Skody recomputes the whole plan instead — machines, people, materials, outside processing — in minutes.
Three Sigma runs 47 work centers on it. Their production manager took a week off last month and the floor kept running.

Most scheduling systems tell you where the plan was. Skody helps manufacturers navigate from where production actually is.
Static schedules are like printed MapQuest directions. Modern factories need real-time manufacturing scheduling, live scheduling, and production rerouting.
Resolve the conflicts
When two jobs need the same machine on the same day, Skody decides. Most systems hand you a Gantt chart and let you sort it out.
See what's actually waiting
Which operation is queued, which is running, and which one is holding up a delivery date.
Price the rearrangement
Before you say yes to a rush order, see what it costs: three Saturdays for seven people, or four other jobs slipping a week.
LIVE FLOOR VIEW
See the bottleneck, queued work, and delivery impact in one place
Skody connects a constrained work center to the real jobs queued behind it, the people qualified to run it, and the due dates it puts at risk.

Built for discrete manufacturers — not just classic CNC job shops
Skody AI fits CNC shops, fabrication teams, mixed-operation plants, tubing / forming environments, assembly-driven workflows, and other discrete manufacturers where labor, routing complexity, and outside processing affect delivery.

Real results from a job shop running Skody AI
"Skody AI completely changed how we schedule. We extended our planning horizon from one week to a full year — without locking ourselves in."
Ken Frenkel
CEO, Three Sigma Technologies (Kent, WA)
"We were stuck under 80% OTD. With Skody AI, we're planning toward 100%. The difference is simple — it schedules both machines and people, and the team actually follows the plan."

Machines + People Scheduled · Plan the Team Actually Follows
"Scheduling used to be reactive for us. Now we're planning ahead with confidence. Skody gives us real-time visibility into capacity, bottlenecks, and labor — and helps us adjust before problems hit the floor."
