We have high forecasted demand for many parts on several work centres in January 2024, with these requisitions resulting in an overload on these work centres. We are not able to increase capacity on these work centres. We have available capacity in October, November and December where we could produce them in advance.
We have planning time fences of maximum 20 days for the manufactured parts.
Ideally we would want the available capacity to be filled pulling forward any requisitions that overload the work centres in January. Some of the purchased components in the product structures have long lead times and will need to be ordered in July for production in October.
What possibilities do we have to do this without manually pulling forward and creating shop orders for October, November and December and without using order gap time?
