Why ProDiscovery for Manufacturing?
Manufacturers leverage ProDiscovery for the following purposes:
- Leverage underutilized manufacturing data in ERP and MES systems to perform effective data analysis.
- Compare established plans to actual performance to identify areas for improvement and facilitate production management.
- Analyze status of manufacturing equipment and facilities to predict failures and malfunctions.
Discovering hidden patterns in production lines
This study delves into uncovering concealed patterns within production lines through a multifaceted approach. It involves conducting specialized pattern analyses for individual products traversing the manufacturing journey. By scrutinizing process characteristics and quantifying metrics like event counts and timeframes for each case, insights are gleaned.
The investigation comprises three key components;
- process model analysis: employs algorithms to distill event sequences between tasks from transaction records
- performance analysis, encompassing visualizations depicting work-related performance metrics, departmental frequencies, execution and waiting times, supplemented by 2-Dimensional and event sequence analyses, matching rates, and comparative assessments through diverse diagrams
- social network analysis: not only deciphering work flow patterns but also spotlighting operator involvement, inter-departmental and equipment-related flows, ultimately categorizing them within a social network paradigm.
Measuring expected vs. actual performance by locating bottlenecks and re-works
- Identification of process model of plan and actual performance
- Execution of comparative analysis by item (case/department/process)
- Discovery of re-work processes that were not included in the original plan.
