SAP PEO: More Efficiency in Production

Manufacturers looking to optimize their production processes, streamline product development, and improve cross-departmental collaboration pay attention! SAP PEO is the solution. SAP Production Engineering and Operations (PEO) is a comprehensive solution for optimizing manufacturing processes, streamlining product development, and improving cross-departmental collaboration. It provides a number of features that enable manufacturing companies to handle a large number of operations. In this post, we will highlight the key benefits of the SAP PEO solution:

1. Managing product structures with version parts lists (MBOMs)

Manufacturing Bills of Material (MBOMs) provide a dynamic representation of product structures that allows manufacturing companies to track changes and remain consistent across different stages of development. Each MBOM version corresponds to a specific design iteration or production phase, ensuring traceability and efficient change management.

2. Planning and scheduling production activities with Production Process Planning (PP)

SAP PEO’s PP functionality allows manufacturing companies to optimize capacity utilization and minimize downtime by effectively scheduling and scheduling production activities. It makes it easier to create detailed production schedules, including work instructions, resource allocations, and time estimates.

3. Improve collaboration and standardization of production with work instructions

Thorough and well-documented work instructions are critical to ensuring consistent and efficient production processes. SAP PEO enables the creation and management of detailed work instructions for each production step. These instructions can include diagrams, images and step-by-step procedures, ensuring clear communication and standardization between production teams.
