Substrate production control system and substrate production control method

A substrate production method comprising:

• obtaining information from a production database of a production start timing using processing circuitry, the production start timing being a scheduled timing when production of a substrate is started on a substrate production line including a plurality of substrate production machines for producing the substrate;
• estimating, using the processing circuitry, a setup time required for a setup work of setting up the substrate production line so as to produce the substrate based on a predetermined time to load a component reel onto a feeder, a predetermined time of detaching an unnecessary feeder from the substrate production line, and a predetermined time of mounting a needed feeder on the substrate production line, the setup work including an external setup work whose execution location is an external setup area that is external to a production area where the substrate production line is disposed and an internal setup work, executed after the external setup work, whose execution location is the production area;
• determining, using the processing circuitry, a setup start timing of starting the setup work based on the production start timing and the setup time;
• estimating, using the processing circuitry, a delivery time required for a delivery work of receiving a member necessary for the production of the substrate from a member warehouse and conveying the member to the external setup area;
• and
• determining, using the processing circuitry, a delivery start timing of starting the delivery work based on the setup start timing and the delivery time,
• wherein the delivery work is at least one of a batch delivery work in which a member necessary for a predetermined number of the substrates to be produced are collectively received from the member warehouse and a division delivery work in which a member necessary for the setup work and a member necessary with a progress of the production of the substrate are divided and received from the member warehouse.
