Performance Monitoring

Monitor the speed (performance) of assets against target speeds for a given production schedule.

Benefit

Know when a line is running slow and what's caused it, to be able to prevent future issues.

Setup

A production schedule should be added for the planned duration or quantity of production.

All SKUs to be produced must have a Performance Target set, this is the ideal rate that the SKU should be produced, based on Cycle Time, Units per Minute, Units per Hour or an Independent Process Speed.

For stations that produce the same SKU every day a schedule isn't necessary, instead a Performance Target must be set at station level.

A tablet for each station to be monitored.

Daily Workflow

1. If current speed drops below 80% of Performance Speed Target, a 'Slow' type issue will be created.

2. Production manager will receive a notification via email or by viewing the cockpit that the station is running slow. Operator will see an alert on the tablet informing them that the station is running slow.

3. Either operator or production manager assigns a cause to the issue.

4. During team meetings, the previous days Slow causes are reviewed and discussed. Allowing solutions to be found, preventing further issues.
