Smart Factory Integration

Smart Factory Integration – SYSPRO’s Manufacturing Operational Management module helps manufacturers close the feedback loop

Embracing Industry 4.0 through smart factory innovation is key to the future of UK manufacturing. Industry built SYSPRO ERP provides the digital infrastructure to transform your factory, improve efficiencies and boost performance. The Manufacturing Operational Management (MOM) module sits at the heart of that system allowing decision makers to track performance on the factory floor and use that insight to drive continuous improvement.

The manufacturing landscape is complex and ever-changing. Competing on the global stage requires agility as companies strive to secure competitive advantage through digitalisation and disruptive technologies. SYSPRO ERP empowers the UK’s mover and makers with tools they need to develop smart factories. With a centralised ERP system that provides access to reliable real time data, business leaders can future-proof operations by identifying ways to cut costs and improve customer service.

That requires insight into the entire manufacturing lifecycle and SYSPRO’s MOM. MOM allows manufacturers to scrutinise every aspect of their operations to increase productivity, reduce loss, and lower production costs. From a single platform, you can monitor and improve factory performance to keep one step ahead of the competition.

The solution moves beyond data collection to deliver actionable insights that drive continuous improvement. It closes the feedback loop and gives decision makers the information they need to take their business to the next level.

Plan and publish

MOM offers users access to detailed scheduling based on current constraints and capacities. This includes materials and capacity planning, online production plans and interactive job lists. Users can quickly and accurately schedule processes to maximise order fulfilment and resource utilisation. Schedules and job lists can then be published to the shop floor and other parts of the business.

Collect, track and automate

Employees can use configurable terminals to collect data relating to areas like performance monitoring, time and attendance and health and safety. As well as gathering data from humans, MOM can also access information from your machines with our IIoT module. This automated data collection gives real time visibility of employees, equipment performance and job progress.

Analyse

Now that you have collected your data, MOM offers access to out-of-the box analytics so that you can measure the effectiveness of your labour and equipment supported by three metrics of availability, performance and quality. It allows you to scrutinise these metrics and Six Big Loss analytics around planned downtime, breakdowns, minor stops, speed loss, production rejects and rejections on start-up.

Optimise

Data is only useful if it can be collected and analysed to provide actionable insights. MOM closes the feedback loop by giving decision makers the information the need to drive factory-wide improvement. That 360-degree view of operations highlights the key areas that need addressing to boost performance. Business leaders are then able to adapt their plan and drive loss out of the business to make it more efficient and effective.

MOM offers a new level of delivery, cost and quality control. With the help of instant messaging and configurable alerts, issues can be addressed before they escalate. Thanks to real time insight, manufacturers can identify losses, take action and adapt the plan accordingly.

As an ERP system SYSPRO stands out from the crowd by providing a single platform to accurately schedule, publish schedules to the shop floor, collect data from humans and machines, access analytics with loss analysis and use that learning to drive continuous improvement. That can be done on any device anywhere anytime.

Use MOM to digitise your operation and embrace the fourth industrial revolution.
