Digital Performance Management has the power to identify, analyze, and improve bottlenecks while surfacing critical issues and areas of improvement in your operations—and it puts that power right at your fingertips. Driving digital transformation (DX) via access to these cutting-edge insights is simpler than you think. Read the e-book and learn four simple rules to follow when implementing a DX solution.
Based on a single metric of time, Digital Performance Management enables you to compare and set the most efficient priorities for improvement opportunities. You can then recapture the finite production hours lost in your current processes, increase your effective time up to 20% or more, and then validate those process improvements by tying them directly to the plant P&L.
Meet Roberta. She’s modeled after a real VP of Global Continuous Improvement at a discrete manufacturing company. Thanks to Digital Performance Management, Roberta can discern actual bottleneck OEE, better understand the company’s operations, determine specific corrective actions for identified top priorities, and eliminate an entire overtime shift—delighting employees in the process, who can now spend more time with their families.
