Full Suite of Factory Solutions
Factory MES Performance
Factory MES Performance is at the heart of the solution and delivers the capabilities to drive productivity improvements while managing complex product profiles and differing shift patterns across multiple lines. Whether you need packaged performance metrics, predefined workflows, changeovers, CIP, or cost-per-unit tracking at the product, line, shift or plant level, Performance will enable your factory floor to take action and make adjustments in real-time. Designed to address the usability needs of a shop floor environment, users will benefit from the simplicity of an app bundled with the power of enterprise software.
Factory MES Improve
The Factory MES Improve module offers full transparency into improvement initiatives throughout the factory and enterprise. Using intelligence collected from day-to-day shop floor activities, Factory MES Improve establishes a foundation for prioritizing key initiatives, executing root-cause analysis, and measuring performance. By categorizing performance issues in line with the top losses that affect production, the module automatically quantifies the greatest opportunities to recover lost hours and production units. Pre-configured online campaigns can be created—with established improvement targets—to track against the team’s daily performance.
Factory MES Analytics
The Factory MES Analytics module is an easy-to-use business intelligence (BI) viewer that allows users to create reports and dashboards with ease. It allows production and quality data to be analyzed together across different perspectives such as product, line, shift, crew, and run length.This level of granularity, especially when combined with Factory MES Performance and Factory MES Improve, gives manufacturers the power to identify variability patterns, prioritize improvement initiatives, improve service levels, and reduce overtime and product costs.
Factory MES Quality
The Factory MES Quality module equips operators to perform product quality and other checks as part of a real-time, day-to-day routine. There is no paperwork to file—just touch-screen, handheld technology. Armed with key information, operators can make immediate adjustments to waste and yield issues while ensuring full audit compliance. The solution provides vital pass/fail metrics for stock-in-quarantine, ensuring rapid supervisory sign-off and instant notifications of any quality threshold violations. MES Quality’s direct links to bar-coding and image-recognition hardware also enable full, end-of-line packaging compliance.
