PROBLEM

Every time & action plan was worked back from the ex-factory date by hand. When the buyer pulled a shipping date in, the whole schedule behind it had to be recalculated.

THE OLD PROCESS

  1. 01Confirm the ex-factory date
  2. 02Work back to fabric and trim in-house dates
  3. 03Derive cutting and sewing start dates
  4. 04Type it into a spreadsheet
  5. 05Build a chart to share
  6. 06Start over whenever a date moves

WHAT I BUILT

  • Milestones are calculated back from the ex-factory date and charted in one pass
  • Lead times are held in the tool rather than re-entered per order
  • National holidays for every country involved are built into the calculation
  • Move the shipping date and everything recalculates
