One recipe, every batch
Define each step once, with its people, equipment, and room.
Production Scheduling
From recipe to release.
Every batch becomes a sequence of steps with the equipment, rooms, and operators it needs, and each change is checked against their availability.
How It Works
Scheduled the way batches run.
Recipes, rooms, equipment, and the people on the floor are managed together, so the schedule reflects how each batch will actually run.
Every room and machine
See each room and piece of equipment hour by hour, including cleaning and calibration.
Matched by skill and site
Find operators of the right type at the right site, with leave and daily hours checked.
Schedule Changes
Move a step. See what it affects.
Drag a step and its linked steps follow. Each change is checked against equipment, room, and operator availability at the new times.
Drag Dispensing to the right, or use the buttons, to start batch B07 later.
Scheduling Gantt ChartSite A · WednesdayIllustrative
Illustrative checks for Site A on a Wednesday: steps linked finish to start, 8.0 daily working hours per operator, one task at a time per piece of equipment, and rooms set to hold one task at a time. In this example, Dispensing moves in 1-hour steps.
The Output
A schedule the floor can follow.
Every batch step, non-batch task, and leave on one calendar, with the numbers that need attention at the top.

Questions from scheduling teams.
Can we schedule clinical and commercial batches together?
Yes. Clinical and commercial batches share one timeline at each site, and each batch follows its own recipe, so both draw on the same operators, rooms, and equipment.
What happens to linked steps when a step moves?
Linked steps shift automatically to keep their order, and SCmple checks operator, equipment, and room availability at the new times. Steps can be linked finish to start, start to start, finish to finish, or start to finish.
What happens when an operator is on leave or out sick?
Leave and holidays are recorded for each operator, and any step that overlaps them is flagged. Find replacement lists operators of the same type at the same site who are free for that step.
Can we schedule across multiple sites?
Yes. Every batch belongs to a manufacturing site, and operators are designated to one or more sites. The dashboard and Gantt chart filter by site, so each team sees its own schedule while planners can see every site.
What do operators on the floor see?
Operators see the tasks at their designated sites and can narrow the view to their own tasks. They update the status of each step as work moves forward and leave comments for the team.
