More flexible processes

The quest for greater sustainability while making production processes more flexible requires constant improvement efforts. Increasing production capacity and quality by making the best use of available resources and assets is therefore a prerogative of every successful company. Lean Manufacturing initiatives that drive change actions require constant and objective analysis of one's activities. Defining and monitoring performance indicators allows you to identify where to take action to achieve the best return on investment.

Sustainability

Getting more out of available resources is one of the keys to sustainability. Reducing waste means not consuming everything that does not bring added value to the product and the customer. What efficiency paths need to be taken? Adequate and constant monitoring of processes makes it possible to identify waste and reduce it with concrete actions. Efficient processes sinifica reduce waste, material and energy consumption. All these contributions increase the sustainability of production processes and the competitiveness of the company.

Flexibility

To cope with market fluctuations or supply chain challenges, it is critical that production processes are more flexible. To quickly handle spikes in demand or frequently adjust production plans, it is essential to have processes with definite lead times that are as efficient as possible. Lean manufacturing is the key to achieving this flexibility, eliminating wasted time and optimizing every operation, whether automatic or manual.
This level of efficiency can only be achieved through constant performance measurement and analysis.

Data Collection
Lean Manufacturing initiatives start with analytical observation of processes. Identifying the value stream requires starting with concrete, objective measurements. 
Capturing data from machines or actions performed by operators and collecting them in a digital format enables otherwise slow and laborious analysis to be accelerated.
Monitoring KPI
After identifying critical issues and improvement actions, it is crucial to monitor progress through specific performance indicators. Using the data collected, KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) are calculated and made available to all involved. Indicators can be compiled on activities or in real time and shared with stakeholders.
Data Sharing
Having defined improvement goals, communication covers a crucial role. Providing clearly and consistently the targets to be achieved and the status of progress helps and motivates staff. Reports, dashboards and andons allow key parameters to be always in sight for analysis purposes or real time monitoring at the edge of the line.
Statistic Process Control
Data collected from sampling plans are analyzed by applying statistical control logic to detect drifts in process quality that would otherwise be difficult to notice. It provides diagrams and control charts for immediate analysis and triggers notifications in case of outliers. An ally in the implementation of Lean Manufactoring and Six Sigma logics.

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.

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.

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.

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.
