Simulation and modeling needs became apparent early in the design of a Greenfield manufacturing facility, especially in the areas of factory floor design support and in factory floor scheduling. Simulation packages were introduced to this project earlier than normal to help drive the design, rather than waiting for the facility design to drive the system development. Time constraint was another reason for the early development of the prototypes; the models and scheduling systems will be tailored while the factory is brought on line.
