Stop Leaking Profit Through Poor Scheduling and Capacity Blind Spots
Most manufacturers miss delivery dates, waste capacity, and operate in constant firefighting mode—not because SAP can’t help, but because it isn’t being used to its full potential.
Let’s fix that. 👉 Request a Consultation
Why It Matters to Executives
Underused SAP planning capabilities silently erode EBITDA, tie up working capital, and drag down throughput. Without real-time production and capacity alignment, your organization can't scale efficiently—or reliably meet customer demand.
SAP ECC and S/4HANA offer the visibility and scheduling power to correct this. Reveal helps you use it.
Common Business Challenges
Executives often see the symptoms before the source:
- Constant rescheduling due to missed capacity or material availability
- Low schedule attainment despite detailed planning
- Heavy reliance on spreadsheets and email to manage production
- Underutilized work centers and reactive shop floor decisions
- Forecasts and plans that fail to convert into feasible, executable schedules
The result? Lost margin, constrained growth, and a reputation for unreliability.
What We Solve
These aren't system limitations—they're execution gaps. Reveal realigns your SAP Production & Capacity Planning capabilities to reflect actual shop floor conditions. That means:
- Accurate work center and routing data, including realistic production versions
- Finite scheduling logic activated and applied
- MRP that factors in labor and machine availability
- Elimination of parallel, manual scheduling processes
This unlocks capacity planning that works across long-, mid-, and short-term horizons—and drives better decision-making from planners, supervisors, and plant leadership.
Business Benefits Executives Can Expect
When SAP is fully leveraged as a production planning engine—not just a transactional system—your business sees measurable gains:
- 18% increase in throughput through schedule stability and better flow
- 22% improvement in schedule adherence, reducing penalties and backorders
- $9M in operating cost savings by aligning plan with reality
- Reduction in changeovers and overtime through accurate sequencing
- Real-time visibility into constraint points, enabling proactive decisions
A global industrial manufacturer eliminated reactive scheduling by aligning work centers and routings in SAP—resulting in a 20% increase in plan attainment and $7.5M in annualized production efficiency gains.

It’s not about adding complexity—it’s about building trust in the system and the data.
Why SAP—and Why Reveal
SAP ECC and S/4HANA already include powerful capabilities to level load capacity, sequence orders, and drive production efficiency. You just have to use them correctly.
