Operations Improvement using a Real-time and Data-Driven Approach
FY 2018-19 · 2019-01-02
Summary
Increase production, reduce costs, and increase quality through the application of a software system for monitoring, reporting, and tracking plant operations. Current plant performance evaluation relies almost entirely on paper reports, and prevents effective analysis of the causes of inefficiency. Establish accurate benchmarks by workcell, identify bottlenecks, quantify machine reliability, operator performance, material and finished good type influence on performance, and operational factors on quality. We will use these analytics to facilitate decision making, including maintenance resource allocation, scheduling, quality improvement, operator training, and capital improvement projects.

Description
Increase production, reduce costs, and increase quality through the application of a software system for monitoring, reporting, and tracking plant operations. Current plant performance evaluation relies almost entirely on paper reports, and prevents effective analysis of the causes of inefficiency. Establish accurate benchmarks by workcell, identify bottlenecks, quantify machine reliability, operator performance, material and finished good type influence on performance, and operational factors on quality. We will use these analytics to facilitate decision making, including maintenance resource allocation, scheduling, quality improvement, operator training, and capital improvement projects.
Description (French)
Augmenter la production, réduire les coûts et améliorer la qualité grâce à l'application d'un système logiciel de surveillance, de rapport et de suivi des opérations de l'usine. L'évaluation actuelle du rendement des usines repose presque entièrement sur des rapports papier et empêche une analyse efficace des causes de l'inefficacité. Établir des points de référence précis par cellule de travail, identifier les goulots d'étranglement, quantifier la fiabilité de la machine, la performance de l'opérateur, l'influence du matériau et du type de produit fini sur les performances et les facteurs opérationnels sur la qualité. Nous utiliserons ces analytiques pour faciliter la prise de décision, y compris l'allocation des ressources de maintenance, la planification, l'amélioration de la qualité, la formation des opérateurs et les projets d'amélioration des immobilisations.
