It appears with the turn of a new decade, systems thought to be commonplace have only been exploited by a few ‘enlightened’ companies.
As 2020 unfolds, the number of businesses realising they do not understand their processes or do not have a handle on the factors causing instances of excessive downtime or poor quality is becoming understood – and it is amazingly high. In fact, if you do not have a Manufacturing Operations Management solution (MOM) in place, you are in the majority.
Digitisation of business is a current hot topic with digital processes and automation being virtually essential to remain competitive. Yet, how can a company have an effective digitisation strategy if it doesn’t understand where its time, labour or raw materials are being wasted? Digitising a poor process is not going to help.
MOMs solutions are not simply OEE tools, although that is a simple deployment, a fully functioning MOM platform can manage all aspects of a factory from Input materials right through to Shipments and all touchpoints in between. Integration is critical for such a platform, the ability to link to and pass data to / from other systems is vital. Imagine your company where the boundaries between ERP, WMS, QMS, Factory PLCs, PM and numerous other systems are gone because your MOM has them in its arms.
A MOM can be likened to the conductor of an orchestra. Individual instruments play well alone, but they are majestic when controlled by the conductor.
