• Shop-floor management is about visualisation of KPIs, improving and optimizing ressources, event detection, exception handling, continuous improvement, and sustainable solutions for problems. It relies on a mixture of innovative tools and methods. Local approaches for specific production lines or machines are possible so that large central investments are not necessarily required. Shop-floor management is a field of many possible quick wins!
  • Production Planning & Control (PPC): High-resolution data collected by innovative sensors, stored and managed in big data platforms and analyzed by intelligent algorithms are the basis for the next level in Production Planning & Controlling (PPC). Realtime monitoring apps and intelligence-driven proposals give managers and shop-floor employees full control over production processes and allow them to react quickly and decentrally to unexpected events. Significant reduction of losses and cost are an obvious business case for PPC in times of Industry 4.0.
  • Implementation of lean techniques for manufacturing: reduce lead times, reduce operating costs and improve product quality.
