EDGEBIC

What EDGEBIC is

EDGEBIC is Windows desktop software for finite-capacity manufacturing planning and scheduling. It assigns orders against shifts, downtime, machine instances, operator skills, changeovers, machine pools, and alternate work centers. A graphical routing designer shows operations as connected nodes and arrows with drag-and-drop editing. Schedulers can work forward or backward, use Theory of Constraints anchor scheduling, and plan across multiple sites. Its two-layer optimizer includes Google OR-Tools CP-SAT and reports a proven optimality gap for mathematical optimization. A companion kiosk records starts, pauses, piece counts, and completed operations, sending actual hours and dates into the schedule. Imports come from Excel, CSV, or databases through reusable masks, with exports for schedules and dates. SQLite is listed for single users and SQL Server for enterprise use. EDGEBIC APS costs $25,000, paid once; EDGEBIC Complete costs $35,000, paid once and adds MRP, inventory, purchasing, and material pegging.
