Planning service. Built with your team

Fix your production planning - without new software

We build a clear weekly planning system with your team - using Excel and tools you already have.

No ERP. No migration. Your team runs it from day one.

When planning lives in too many files, the loudest voice wins

In small manufacturing teams, urgent requests often override the plan. Priorities shift through calls, emails, and manual updates. Orders get confirmed on incomplete assumptions - and one delay quickly creates three more.

Priorities change without rules 
When there is no clear planning logic, urgency replaces structure. The loudest request wins, not the most important one.

Orders confirmed on weak assumptions
Delivery promises are made before real capacity, supplier status, or existing delays are visible. False confirmations create problems that show up weeks later.

One delay creates more delays
When one item slips, the impact spreads quietly into planning, purchasing, reporting, and delivery. By the time it is visible, it is already hard to fix.

Too much time is lost rebuilding the plan
Every week starts with checking files, updating dates, and trying to figure out what should happen first.

Built for teams that still plan in Excel

Ideal for 
Small and mid-sized manufacturing teams planning in Excel, exports, or simple ERP systems without clear weekly planning logic.

Not the right fit
Corporations with fully integrated enterprise planning environments and mature planning systems already in place.

From your data to a clear plan

How your existing data becomes one clear weekly system

We take the files you already use - Excel, ERP exports, supplier sheets, priorities and comments - and turn them into one clear operational flow.

About ME

15 years on the floor.
Now building the system I always needed.

I've spent 15 years inside manufacturing - not consulting from the outside. Foundries, machining, welding, assembly and custom production.
Real capacity limits, supplier delays, priority fights every Monday morning. I stopped fixing the files - and started building a system that turns your data into a clear weekly production plan.
That's Manuxel. A system that tells you what to produce next week - and why.

What this changes in practice

Problem	Result
Backlog growing faster than capacity	Overload visible 2-3 weeks before it hits delivery
Priorities changing through calls and emails	Replaced by a clear weekly plan the whole team follows
Supplier delays showing up too late	Supplier reality integrated directly into the weekly output

Decision engine

Turn planning chaos into clear decisions

Morfeus analyzes your planning data and converts it into clear, actionable outputs - so your team decides faster, with full context.

Filters irrelevant rows automatically

Only orders that need a decision this week stay visible.

Interprets planning signals from comments

System reads the instruction and acts on it.

Weekly capacity visibility

Where your capacity breaks (before it's too late)

Each bar is one week. The system flags overload before it becomes a delivery problem.

See a real example

Week 3 is overloaded → this creates delays 2–3 weeks later

What this looks like in a real manufacturing environment

Anonymized example based on a real implementation. Industry: custom casting and components manufacturing

THE SITUATION BEFORE

- Custom parts manufacturer, ~ 60 people, 20 active projects
- Production plan managed across multiple Excel files
- Priorities changed through calls and emails, not updated in the plan
- Overloaded weeks became visible only when delivery problems already started
- Order status had to be checked manually across different files and systems
- No signal for when to stop accepting new orders

WHAT WE CONNECTED

- Order list with quantities, types and delivery dates
- Weekly capacity limits (nominal and hard cap)
- Priority rules: HARD (committed), SOFT (probable), flexible orders
- Manual override inputs: LOCK, MOVE, SPREAD actions
- Supplier and outsource coordination data
- Financial overview linked to planned quantities.

FAQ

Do we need to replace our ERP or Excel to use this?

No. The system works on top of what you already have. Your existing Excel files, ERP exports, supplier sheets and order lists stay in place. We add the planning logic on top of them - no replacement, no migration project required.

What kind of data do you need from us?

Typically: an order list with quantities, and delivery dates, basic capacity constraints, priority rules your team already uses informally, and any supplier or outsource data you currently track manually. In most companies this already exists - it is just scattered across different files.

What do we actually receive as output?

A clear weekly production plan with priorities set, capacity load by week, overloaded flags before they turn into delivery problems, backlog and delay visibility, order and project status in one view, and a management-ready report. The output is export-read-no reformatting, no manual cleanup needed before distribution.

Can the plan also be used for financial forecasting?

Yes. Because the plan is based on your actual order quantities and delivery weeks, it creates a solid base for delivery timing and workload-based financial forecasting. This is not core function, but it comes naturally from having a structured plan.

What type and size of company is this built for?

Small and mid-sized manufacturing teams - typically from 15 - 150 people - where planning is still managed through Excel, exports or a basic ERP without clear weekly planning logic. It works especially well in custom or high-mix production where priorities shift often and capacity is not clearly visible week to week. It is not designed for large corporations with fully integrated enterprise systems already in place.
