Manufacturing Solutions
Operational Performance
Managers of today’s manufacturing companies receive tons of data: data about equipment, products, orders, deliveries, conditions, quality and customers. But for most plant managers, it is a challenge to make well-informed decisions based on the fragmented view of plant operations they garner from these traditional, stand-alone manufacturing systems.
To act effectively, managers and other key decision makers need visibility into the entire plant floor operations. They need data that is online, available in real time, and in a format that can be readily understood and applied to real business problems.
Solution Description
That’s why a growing number of companies are moving to powerful BI solutions like Panorama NovaView that help to integrate isolated silos of information residing in existing systems. This allows manufacturers to consolidate data from multiple sources to improve production planning, scheduling, and schedule adherence, and then monitor key operational metrics using dashboards and scorecards.
Even after products and services have been delivered, quality must still be monitored and problems anticipated. Managing the multitude of factors that affect quality can prove difficult considering the complex nature of most production processes, which involve multiple departments within and across lines of business and globally dispersed suppliers, production facilities and customers.
Panorama’s BI solutions give you the intelligence you need to maintain quality throughout the complete lifecycle of your products and services. They do it by offering world-class predictive analytics and reporting to help companies identify emerging issues, determine their root cause, and resolve issues before they become customer problems.
