Process Improvement - 1

Automotive Offline Virtual Station Operations Centre Process Improvement Process Improvement is an advanced Offline process monitoring and reporting tool that supports operational improvements with a suite of spatial and process performance monitoring capabilities. Location data is fused with enterprise information sources and process plans to create meaningful rules, alerts and reports that can be monitored, actioned and consumed by Offline production engineering and management alike. This delivers an operational improvement platform that is information‐driven and focused on real production issues, giving Offline teams the information they need to quickly attack process variation, limit delays and maximise order‐to‐delivery execution. Core Capabilities Modelling the Offline Process Smart Factory Process Improvement models the physical layout of the production area, encoding important factory layout properties like functional areas and work‐cells using “virtual zones” with associated properties. These are linked together through a logical representation of the Offline test and verification process to enable monitoring of expected flow, inter‐step dependencies and sophisticated process performance metrics. This digital analogue of the Offline process allows Smart Factory to monitor and evaluate spatial and property‐driven business rules that support both operational and strategic goals. Production teams are able to better manage day‐to‐day operations through real‐time performance metrics linked to quality, efficiency and throughput, while quality and lean management teams are able to quickly consume large volumes of aggregated process data to highlight process inefficiencies and stability issues affecting optimal throughput and cost. exceptions for vehicles not adhering to their prescribed process map Highlight process efficiency issues from sudden process variation above allowable thresholds Detect process performance issues charcterised by process timeouts, takt overruns and process overuse Automate status changes from both location and production systems NOTIFY AND INFORM Information How and When You Need It Role‐driven notifications and alerts provide an important channel for actionable information distribution, ensuring vehicle movement, prioritisation and process information is directed to the appropriate person or group. These can be sent as either email notifications to assigned users or as on‐ screen notification messages in the web map.
