Production managers are challenged by the difficult task of incorporating all related information in a decision-making process while managing resources and solving various problems that involve several departments and different issues.
intelligent and user friendly operations management system that predicts, detects, and reacts in real-time to sudden events; forecasts with a high degree of confidence current trends, future needs and changes.
ICT Information and computing technology
Proof-of-principle that the software requires minimal, non-specialist modification when new products, plant or layouts are introduced into the factory, can automatically generate the necessary database modification within an acceptable number of replicate production runs
Information presentation in a simplified manner hastens human understanding and response to solving problems. such as production changes, breakdowns, and resource status. Proof-of-principle that the software requires minimal, non-specialist modification when new products, plant or layouts are introduced into the factory, and can automatically generate the necessary database modification within an acceptable number of replicate production runs It is envisaged that such uniquely combined computer technology would effectively be able to instruct, not only: “ These are your real time problems needing corrective actions (data processing),” but also, “And these are the corrective actions at your disposal (diagnostics). From that which is already known about the schedule of orders, availability of materials, capability of filling lines, engineering resource, operator availability, knowledge and experience, your best, most cost effective action , would be ……………..” This would mean that your current order scheduling and proposal completion time would be changed as follows ………….”
