It allows you to bridge the gap between ERP and the automation and control layer on the shop floor, allowing complete visibility into released production runs.
The system is ideal for production companies in the food, beverages, process and industrial manufacturing industries. It can be deployed seamlessly at individual sites or in multi-site enterprises operating a linear, fast-moving production line.
Patch OEE combines advanced features, developed from years of user experience, with a user-friendly design in the cloud. Delivering immediate benefits from day one, Patch OEE ensures a rapid ROI whilst optimising manufacturing performance.
Advanced Features to Drive Continuous Improvement
Optimal Plan Attainment and OEE
Patch OEE provides visual insights into your production attainment (Plan vs. Actual) with estimated finish times calculated in the moment based on the existing OEE allowing you to react immediately and adjust for optimal production planning. What’s more, a comprehensive breakdown into the breakdown of total used time, helps to arm planners with the necessary intel to gauge product turnaround times more effectively for different line, shift and product combinations.
Collaboration on the Shop Floor
Within Patch OEE, operator tasks can be embedded within the solution, and can be triggered at predetermined intervals such as every X amount of product produced or every start of run. Enabling greater collaboration through dashboards, your team members in the factory have a direct view of these tasks and actions, to detect and solve problems in real time. It also offers the capability to compare the performance of different teams and to optimise it where necessary.
Labour Productivity
With our solution, you can track and manage the actual productivity of labour throughout the factory to better control labour costs and ultimately factor them into production efficiency.
Insight Into Production and Losses
Patch OEE offers out of the box reporting that provides immediate insights into production state, and the relevant production parameters that have an impact on performance. End users can filter these reports across many different layers and levels to identify key opportunities to reduce costs and unlock hidden capacity.
Promote Continuous Improvement
Drive continuous improvement initiatives across the plant and entire organisation by closing the loop between potential and actual improvements. For example, users can drive significant efficiency gains by keeping track of actual cleaning and changeover times, and the reasons into their over runs. These reasons can be aggregated upwards across the site to highlight repetitive issues that need action.
Data-Driven Decisions
In addition to the live dashboards which allow the end user to filter insights across many different layers and levels, our reporting module offers production managers a great alternative to review and consume information in a very standardised and structured manner. For example, the data prep can be reduced down to a single click, as reports can be scheduled into your inbox at predefined times for example at the end of each day, week or month. This provides a powerful means to consume key insights on a regular basis, helping to understand the performance trajectory of the plant.
