Welcome to Stottler Henke Associates, Inc.

NASA Space Launch System

NASA is implementing Aurora to schedule the ground-based activities that are preparing the Space Launch System (SLS) before its maiden flight. Similarly, Aurora/AMP generated short- and long-term schedules of ground-based activities that prepared and refurbished the Space Shuttles before and after each flight. Aurora’s intelligent and rapid scheduling enables NASA to analyze numerous what-if scenarios efficiently.

Boeing Uses Aurora

The Boeing Company uses Aurora to prioritize production of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner™. Aurora's dynamic assembly schedule adapts to real-time production variations, so Boeing can produce aircraft as efficiently as possible

Major Auto Manufacturer Leverages Aurora

Major auto manufacturer uses Aurora to reduce the number of crash tests required. As crash test requirements evolve and the need for tighter safety tolerances increases, the auto manufacturer and its partners have been able to streamline crash testing procedures which have led to significant cost reductions.

Scheduling Space Station Preparations

Aurora schedules the use of floor space and other resources at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center's Space Station Processing Facility, the world’s largest low-particle clean room where International Space Station components are prepared for flight.

Mass General Uses Aurora

Aurora is used by Massachusetts General Hospital to schedule clinical rotations, on-call shifts, and clinic hours for its medical residency program. Aurora's schedule satisfies the hospital’s staffing requirements, special requests, and clinical rotation rules that ensure that residents receive appropriate experiences.

United Space Alliance Uses Aurora

United Space Alliance included Aurora in the design of Temporis, a scheduling system targeted for use by NASA crew members on board next generation spacecraft during deep space missions

Critical Chain Project Management

Aurora-CCPM is a combination of Aurora™, Stottler Henke’s intelligent planning and scheduling system, with the added power and flexibility of Multi-project Critical Chain Project Management. Boeing uses Aurora-CCPM for scheduling manufacturing operations because no other product could meet its Critical Chain needs.

MRO of NASA Space Shuttles

An Aurora predecessor scheduled the Maintenance, Refurbishment and Overhaul (MRO) of NASA’s Space Shuttles at the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB) at Kennedy Space Center. The solution encapsulated expert heuristics in combination with automated search to optimally allocate resources, including human, equipment and physical space minimizing the duration of the entire MRO process.
