SmartPlanner

SmartPlanner is a software solution designed to simplify and optimize planning in egg grading operations. As production complexity increases, planning often relies on individual experience, creating dependency on a single expert and introducing operational risk.

In many grading facilities, experienced planners carry years of knowledge, making it challenging to maintain the same efficiency and overview when key people are unavailable. For some producers, this dependency creates uncertainty in daily operations:

"I don’t like going on holiday. I create a production plan for two weeks and then just hope for the best." — Egg grader, Germany

SmartPlanner addresses these challenges by providing a clear, structured overview of production, allowing planners to place and adjust orders using a visual drag-and-drop interface. Order duration is shown directly in the schedule, making it easy to understand the impact of each decision.

By making planning visible and structured, SmartPlanner reduces complexity, improves flow, and supports more efficient use of resources.

Planned and actual production can be compared to identify deviations and improve future planning. All decisions are captured digitally and shared across the team, ensuring alignment and consistent results, even with less experienced staff.
