Epicor Kinetic Planning and Scheduling is a comprehensive manufacturing ERP solution designed to help manufacturers balance demand, materials, and capacity with precision. Built for both single-site operations and global enterprises, it combines advanced forecasting, material requirements planning (MRP), and production scheduling in a single, cloud-based platform.

Demand Forecasting and Planning

With Epicor Kinetic, manufacturers can generate accurate forecasts using multiple historical data sources — including sales orders, invoices, and inventory usage — while leveraging statistical models that automatically adapt to each item’s demand patterns.

Material Requirements Planning (MRP and MPS)

The solution’s robust MRP and Master Production Scheduling (MPS) capabilities enable informed planning decisions based on real-world capacity and material constraints. Advanced algorithms continuously balance customer demand and forecasts against available resources, supporting long lead-time planning and proactive supply management.

Advanced Production Scheduling

A visual production scheduling board provides real-time insight into shop floor operations, allowing planners to quickly adjust schedules, analyze multi-level assemblies, and resolve constraints before they impact delivery performance.

Capacity, Constraints, and What‑If Analysis

Epicor Kinetic delivers powerful analysis tools that help manufacturers identify potential bottlenecks before they impact production. Cost, throughput, and what‑if analysis enable planners to evaluate proposed changes, while overload informers highlight capacity constraints and their root causes.

Order Promising and Customer Commitments

Within order management, real-time capable-to-promise (CTP) functionality allows manufacturers to confirm or adjust orders instantly, based on projected due dates.

This product tour provides an overview of how Epicor Kinetic Planning and Scheduling helps manufacturers and distributors improve demand management, optimize production scheduling, and operate more efficiently and profitably.
