Dispatching: in PPC

Dispatching involves planning and coordinating production activities by releasing work orders and instructions according to scheduled times and sequences. It determines when and by whom jobs will be processed. The key functions of dispatching are to ensure availability of materials, equipment, drawings and specifications; assign jobs to appropriate machines and workers; issue job orders and time tickets; inspect work; collect documentation; and record job start and completion times. Dispatching can be centralized, with one department controlling the process, or decentralized, with responsibilities divided among departments.
