Lighthouse Cabinetry ran their entire production schedule on Excel. It worked — until someone missed a step and the formulas broke. With 30+ concurrent orders, production managers were spending 30+ minutes manually verifying timelines and making coordination calls every day.
I designed an automated production scheduler to replace it. Each order shows a live view — unique ID, current department, days to completion, finishing date. When a manager drags a project up or down in the queue, the system recalculates all affected timelines instantly. No formulas to maintain. No steps to miss. No calls to make.
The drag-and-drop interaction was a deliberate choice — the team already knew how to reorder priorities in Excel, so it had to feel familiar, just more reliable.
Result: 94% on-time delivery rate. Production managers now trust what they see on screen.
