🏭 Every job shop has a scheduling story. What is yours?

Some shops run the schedule in the ERP. Some run it in a spreadsheet. Some run it in one person's head (and we all know that person!). 😄

💭 Quick Poll: Where does your real production schedule live today?

📊 In the ERP
📝 In a spreadsheet
🧠 In someone's head
🔀 A little of everything

⚙️ Best practice tip: Cross-train your team on at least two roles in DELMIAWorks.

When only one person knows how to run a critical function in your ERP, that person becomes a single point of failure. Vacation, turnover, illness — any of those create an operational gap.

Cross-training is not just a backup plan. It builds a team that understands how the different parts of the system connect, which leads to better data quality, fewer handoff errors, and faster problem solving when things go sideways.

Start with your highest-risk roles and work outward from there. Your future self will thank you! 💪

🏭 Not every manufacturer needs the same DELMIAWorks setup. That is why we built packages.

The 2026 DELMIAWorks promotional packages from DR Software Services are designed for manufacturers at different stages of growth. Whether you are implementing for the first time or expanding what your current system can do, there is a package built for where you are right now.

Every package includes:

🔧 Configuration built around YOUR production processes
👥 Role-based training for YOUR team
📋 Post-go-live support during the first 90 days when it matters most
✅ A certified implementation partner who has done this before

💡 Quick training tip for plant managers:

Stop training new hires on everything at once.

It sounds counterintuitive but the fastest way to get someone productive in DELMIAWorks is to start with ONLY the modules they will use in their first two weeks on the job.

A machine operator needs shop floor data collection, production entry, and inventory basics. That is it to start. Everything else can come later.

Focused training builds confidence fast. Confidence drives adoption. And adoption is what turns your ERP into a competitive advantage instead of a system people work around.

Start narrow. Go deeper as they get comfortable. It works! 🏭

👥 Every manufacturing team has that one person everyone goes to when DELMIAWorks throws a curveball.

You know the one. The person who has memorized every shortcut, knows exactly where to find the right report, and can answer a question faster than a help ticket ever could.

💭 Quick Poll: How would you describe your team's DELMIAWorks confidence level right now?

🟢 Strong across the board
🟡 Good in some areas, gaps in others
🔴 We could use more support
⬜ We are just getting started

🔧 What if your supervisor knew about a machine going down at 9:40 a.m. by 9:42 a.m.?

That is the difference between real-time shop floor visibility and end-of-day reporting. And it is the difference between recovering an hour of production and writing it off.

DELMIAWorks captures machine status across every work center continuously. Running, idle, down, in setup. Live data means decisions happen during the shift when they can still affect the outcome.

✅ Less unplanned downtime
✅ Faster response to production deviations
✅ Scheduling that reflects what is actually happening on the floor

Want to see what real-time visibility looks like for your operation? Let's talk!

🏭 Q3 is here and it moves FAST.

The second half of the year is where manufacturing businesses prove what they are made of. Tighter schedules, higher volume, and the push toward year-end targets all arrive at once.

The teams that handle it best are not always the ones with the newest equipment. They are the ones with the clearest data, the most confident people, and systems that work the way the floor actually runs.

Here is to a strong Q3 for every manufacturer out there. Let's make the second half count! 💪
