Manage at the shop floor level the availability of materials, inventory management, and resources needed for production, ensuring that production schedules are adhered to and efficient.
Availability of materials, inventory management, and resources
Presentation
Managing resources to optimize production
The manufacturing world increasingly needs flexible production processes in order to adapt to market demands: variable demand with peaks that are not easily predictable or new products that need to be brought to market quickly add up to a raw material availability that is not always optimal due to more volative supply chains. It is therefore critical to ensure that available resources are tracked and exploited to ensure their availability and best meet production schedules.

Meeting market demands while optimizing available resources requires that each production step be prepared to the best of its ability. Planning resource utilization in terms of raw materials, personnel and machinery brings significant benefits in terms of increasing capacity and reducing waste. In addition, an organization of resources increases adherence to planned delivery times through more accurate lead time estimation and optimizes inventory management. In terms of sustainability, more efficient plans allow for lower energy and material consumption and greater operational flexibility.
People are a key factor within production environments. Providing timely information on the status of work allows for shorter reaction times and greater involvement of the workforce. To achieve the best return on investment from a digitalization project, it is therefore crucial to ensure that the collected information is always and everywhere available.

Industrial operations are caretterized by a very heterogeneous context of measures and actions to be tracked. Highly automated environments coexist with manual actions influenced by people's decisions. Describing and objectively measuring workflows is an unavoidable necessity in order to achieve more efficient and sustainable processes. Today's challenge focuses on the ability to analyze to get the right insights. Identifying the relationships between products, consumption, and production assets with respect to organizational choices can bring improvements that can go even beyond expectations.

Quality control is crucial for attaining a competitive edge. It ensures customer satisfaction by upholding products to established standards and expectations, thereby reducing operating costs through waste reduction and minimizing the necessity for rework.
Compliance with industry-specific regulations is another crucial aspect of quality control, as it ensures that products comply with legal and safety requirements, thereby avoiding potential penalties and litigation.
Finally, quality control plays a critical role in enterprise risk management, as it helps prevent defective product recalls, legal implications and damage to the company's reputation.

Manufacturing order management represents a priority challenge for factories in conducting their production operations. At the heart of this management lies the delicate balance between meeting delivery deadlines, maintaining product quality, and optimizing resource use. Demand fluctuations, variability in material delivery times, and the need to continuously adjust production plans make the task even more challenging. Effective manufacturing order management is not only crucial for meeting customer expectations in terms of speed and quality; it also plays a key role in reducing production costs and minimizing waste and downtime.
