Overview

frePPLe is an open source suite for production planning, supply chain planning and demand forecasting. It pairs a web application and a relational database with a high performance planning engine to model your items, locations, resources, operations, demand and forecasts, then runs constrained and unconstrained plans that generate manufacturing orders, purchase orders and distribution orders together with resource load and material flow output.

Manufacturing and distribution teams use it for material requirements planning, capacity planning, distribution requirements planning and sales and operations planning, giving them an owned, self hosted planning tool that turns demand and capacity data into an actionable production and procurement plan.

Why the cloudimg image

cloudimg delivers frePPLe fully installed, with the web server, the database and the planning worker already running, so a complete planning environment answers within minutes of launch with no manual application, database or planning engine configuration. No administrator account and no shared password ship in the image: on first boot a fresh secret key, a fresh database password and a unique administrator account are generated and written to a root only file on the instance, so no two deployments ever share a credential. The image is hardened and fully patched, pinned to a known release, paired with a step by step deploy guide and backed by 24/7 cloudimg support.

Common uses

  • A self hosted production planning and MRP tool for manufacturers
