Manufacturing

In the course of production, a huge amount of information is accumulated including sensor readings, manufacturing process data, product specifications, machine load data etc. These data are hardly ever used in analysis, although they contain lots of valuable information which can be used to optimize the production process, whittle down expenses and find "bottlenecks".

The transition from irregular analysis performed using improvised means to systematic analysis based on the specialized analytical platform Loginom enables users to improve management quality and raise it to a brand new level, while ensuring efficient control. Implementation of the most advanced and efficient production management approaches, such as lean production, total quality management, and “just-in-time” work is impossible without an appropriate data analysis system:

• Quality management. The mechanisms built into Loginom allow it to automatically detect deviations from the specified parameters, range them by their importance, identify the reasons for defects and automatically notify the persons concerned about the detected problems.
• System of balanced indicators. Thanks to implementation of the scenarios of key effectiveness indicators in Loginom and the convenient visualization tools with the support of charts, diagrams and different refinement variants, it is possible to transform a company’s strategic goals into a clear action plan for the employees and the divisions, and evaluate the results of their work.
• Modeling. The modeling algorithms built into Loginom offer the opportunity to perform “what-if” analysis and assess how changes in particular settings and equipment parameters will affect production performance, product quality and handling rate.
• Equipment operation optimization. Using various types of forecasting, the user can calculate the demand for materials, electrical power, transport, and manpower, and optimize the equipment load. It is possible to take into account both the internal factors such as output plan, depreciation of equipment, fabrication cycle specifics, as well as the external ones, namely demand, the competitive environment and the reliability of suppliers.

In addition to issues directly related to production, industrial enterprises face many challenges typical of all organizations in general: analytical reporting, client base analysis, procurement optimization etc. All these problems can be resolved using the Loginom analytical platform.
