Layer 3 · Spatial / 3D Twin · PlanTwin™

Demand-aligned production. In hours, not weeks.

Name: PlanTwin
Brand: Wistwin

PlanTwin™ is the spatial twin — your plant in 3D, with production planning running against it live. Demand forecasts, line constraints, raw material availability, shift patterns — orchestrated against the actual plant, not an abstract Gantt chart. Plan to production variance compressed from 20% to under 4%.

What PlanTwin™ does.

// 01

Reads demand from your ERP.

SAP, Oracle, Tally — orders, forecasts, BOMs flow into PlanTwin continuously. No daily export-import.

// 02

Schedules against the live plant.

Your actual lines, capacities, shift patterns, raw material availability from AssetTwin. Real constraints, not theoretical.

// 03

Replans when reality shifts.

Raw material late? Line breakdown? Order changed? PlanTwin rebalances in minutes, not days. Plant Heads see the next-best plan, not panic.

Built for

Plant Heads and COOs whose production planners still build the schedule in Excel.

Most Indian plants run production planning on Excel spreadsheets maintained by 2-3 planners who know "the trick." When the planner is on leave or the order book changes, replanning takes 2-3 days. PlanTwin makes replanning a 3-hour operation that anyone can do.

Plant Head · COO · Production Planner

// THE PAIN

Our planners spend half their week firefighting. Customer changes the order — we replan for 2 days. Raw material delay — we replan for 2 days. Machine breakdown — we run lines half-empty for 2 days while the planner rebuilds the sheet. We need replanning to be a 3-hour operation, not a 3-day operation.

How it works

Four steps.

// 01 · INGEST

Orders, forecasts, BOMs.

From SAP, Oracle, Tally. Continuous sync. Customer-specific order portals integrated where available.

// 02 · MODEL

Your plant in 3D.

Lines, machines, conveyors from AssetTwin. Real cycle times, real changeover patterns, real shift availability.

// 03 · SCHEDULE

Against the constraints.

Finite capacity scheduling. Raw material availability. Tool changeover sequences. Operator skill matching.

// 04 · ACT

Push to shop floor.

Schedule lands on supervisor mobile and shop-floor dashboards. SmarTwin tracks actual vs plan in real time.

Capabilities

What PlanTwin™ ships with on day one.

Browser-Native 3D

No CAD seat required. Plant in 3D, in browser, on any laptop. Plant Heads and planners see the same view.

Demand-Driven Scheduling

Orders + forecast + safety stock. Finite-capacity scheduling against actual constraints.

Changeover Sequencing

Tool-change time minimized via product-family sequencing. Setup matrix per line.

Raw Material Awareness

Schedule respects RM availability. Vendor lead times flow in from procurement systems.

Multi-Plant Coordination

One demand signal, multi-plant optimal allocation. Group COO sees one view.

What-If Simulation

Drag a line, simulate the shift, see the bottleneck before it happens. No production disruption.

Operator Skill Matching

Schedule respects which operators are certified on which lines. Training-aware planning.

Auto-Rebalance

Order change · breakdown · raw material late — PlanTwin replans in minutes, shows next-best plan.

OTIF Tracking

On-time-in-full per customer, per product. Auto-detects at-risk orders.

WIP Optimization

Work-in-progress minimization. Buffers sized to demand volatility, not tradition.

ERP Integration

Bi-directional with SAP, Oracle, Tally. Schedules in, actuals out.

Customer Portal Tie-in

Auto OEM portal updates — Maruti, Tata, M&M, Hyundai — order acknowledgement and ETA flows.

FAQ

Questions buyers actually ask.

PlanTwin™ is the spatial / 3D twin layer of the Wistwin® digital twin platform. It renders your plant in three dimensions in a browser and runs production planning against the actual spatial model — lines, machines, conveyors, shift patterns, raw material availability. Indian Plant Heads use PlanTwin to replace 2-3 day Excel replanning cycles with 3-hour replanning that anyone in the planning team can do.

Yes. The plant is rendered from your actual AssetTwin asset register — every line, machine, conveyor in its real spatial location. We use commissioning drawings, walkthroughs, or photogrammetry to build the spatial model during deployment. Walking the floor without walking the floor.

APS systems are pure scheduling engines without a connection to your live plant. They schedule against a static model of the plant. PlanTwin schedules against the AssetTwin live model — when a machine actually slows, when raw material actually arrives late, the schedule rebalances. Plus you can see it in 3D, in a browser, alongside the rest of the Wistwin platform.

Both. Make-to-order respects customer due dates with the OTIF tracker. Make-to-stock respects target inventory levels per SKU. Hybrid is the most common Indian plant pattern (some SKUs MTS, some MTO) and PlanTwin handles them in one schedule.

A central PlanTwin reads the consolidated order book and allocates to plants based on capacity, geography, customer requirements, and total cost. Group COO sees a single dashboard across all plants. Each plant sees its own local PlanTwin running its own schedule. Cross-plant transfers tracked end-to-end.

Pilot (single plant, 1-3 lines): 8-10 weeks. Plant rollout (all lines): 14-18 weeks. Multi-plant: 4-6 months. The spatial model build is the longest phase — typically 4 weeks of asset register cleanup and 3D layout.

Yes. AWS Mumbai by default. On-prem available. DPDP-compliant. ISO 27001 in progress (Q3 2026).

PlanTwin is priced as a Layer 3 module on the Wistwin platform — Optimize tier. Pricing is per-plant per-year. Indian customers typically see 11-month payback on changeover savings and WIP reduction alone.

AssetTwin required (PlanTwin needs the spatial asset model). SmarTwin recommended (the actual production data closes the plan-actual loop). PlanTwin can run standalone but is sharpest when both are live.

Yes. The auto-generated plan is a starting point. Planners can drag schedule blocks, lock specific assignments, override automatic decisions. PlanTwin tracks the overrides for the next cycle.
