1. What is vPlanner

vPlanner offers a user-friendly and all-encompassing production planning and control solution based on the Plan-Do-Check-Act (PDCA) methodology. By automating the majority of the laborious tasks involved in managing intricate production plans, the system empowers teams to concentrate on the primary objective of production control: leading them towards their objectives by continuously aligning feasible actions with necessary actions.
 
Not All Last Planner System® Implementation are Created Equal
Over time, LPS® has developed from a system designed to enhance the dependability of short-term work into a more comprehensive system, as showcased in the recently released 2020 benchmark report. While vPlanner can be utilized to facilitate short-term planning, users can derive the greatest value from their investment by implementing vPlanner to support the expanded LPS® framework outlined in the 2020 Benchmark. For more information about the latest advancements in LPS®, please refer to the link on the Project Production System Laboratory (P2SL) website:: 2020 Current Process Benchmark for the Last Planner System®.
