Smart Manufacturing
How does Shopfloor-Online enable Smart Manufacturing?
Smart Manufacturing depends on the availability of critical data across all manufacturing operations; it requires “fully integrated, collaborative manufacturing systems that respond in real-time to meet changing demands and conditions in the factory, in the supply network and in customer needs.”*
Bringing all manufacturing operations in one system, Shopfloor-Online creates a single thread of critical data, accessible throughout the factory and across the enterprise.
- Enforce your business processes
- Access contextualised information in real-time
- Empower your workforce, from operators and shift supervisors to engineers and managers
- Improve decision-making and continuous improvement plans
