Aster Textiles to transform its manual planning processes

Aster Textiles, based in Istanbul, has opted for Coats Digital’s FastReactPlan solution for digitally transforming its manual planning processes by connecting more effective planning and data forecasting across departments. This is done in a bid to improve efficiencies and significantly reduce lead times.

The company operates 4 state-of-the-art production facilities in Turkey and Serbia that produce a wide variety of woven and knitted clothing and fabrics. This is in addition to a leading line of sportswear – supplied to nearly 30 global customer brands in ten countries.

Fast React Plan is an innovative and visual production planning and control tool that enhances delivery, efficiency, and lead times. Tailored for apparel and footwear manufacturers, it enables companies to integrate capacity, critical path, and materials into a unified planning system.

“Aster Textiles utilises a LEAN production system in every phase of production to maximise productivity. We place great importance on automation across all our factory operations and aim to continuously improve our production system infrastructure in line with the best technological advancements available,” said the company’s process development director Zumrut Gungor.

“On top of Coats Digital’s expertise, FastReactPlan simply offered the most optimum scheduling management tool on the market and we expect that this proven technology will ultimately enable us to balance production processes more efficiently and significantly improve our delivery performance so that we have much more time available to focus on other areas of our business growth,” Gungor further added.
