As manufacturers seek to increase their operational efficiency and flexibility, AVEVA Discrete Lean Management helps to:
Continuously improve your operational effectiveness by measuring, visualizing and analyzing your manufacturing performance with proven lean management practices and KPIs for both manual and automated production lines.
Empower your production teams to quickly respond to production issues and reduce production losses with near real time visibility into production events and KPIs on dashboards and mobile devices.
Reduce human error and replace paper prints with centralized and orchestrated access to work order information and always up to date digital work instructions.
Digital Lean and Work Management for Discrete Manufacturing
AVEVA Discrete Lean Management provides a set of digital Lean and operational excellence tools for paperless production operations and data collection, for collaboration in response to production issues and material events, and for performance visualization and analyses. The software provides a ready to use digital user interface for orchestrated access to work order information and work instructions, and for reporting material handling, work order execution, down times or quality defects. The full range of AVEVA’s connectivity with IoT devices and plant control systems is included to minimize the number of manual data collection tasks and to enable automatic event notifications. The software is easy to deploy, configure and integrate with plant and enterprise systems which allows for a fast ROI through visibility into the hidden causes of performance losses and by providing your teams with the data they need to perform root cause analyses for continuous improvement.
Performance Management
Continuously improve your operational efficiency by measuring, visualizing and analyzing key performance indicators for both manual and automated production lines (OEE/OLE), and perform root cause analyses by correlating plant events. Evaluate and analyze production line performance with dashboards for labor and equipment effectiveness, as well as quality, and maintenance KPIs.
Andon
Respond faster to production issues through notifications and with real time visibility on dashboards, workstations and mobile devices for collaboration and effective response to different issue scenarios. With visibility of current production problems, other production team members are informed and stakeholders are called for help to prevent or reduce downtime and production loss on a machine, a line or the plant.
Work Order Management
Improve work execution, reporting and tracking using digital and centralized production work order management. Work orders can be allocated based on capacity and best line performance (OEE/OLE) for the specified product to minimize changeover and optimize plant throughput. Display and execute the assigned work orders at the line and report production progress and events through a ready to use user interface. Work orders can be released to production and confirmed upon closure based on data exchange with a business application.
Digital Work Instructions
Empower your production teams to get work done right the first time and prevent production errors from happening with easy-to-access-and-follow work instructions. Manage and display work instructions as a digital document and instruction media files. Train and guide operators with easy-to-follow step by step instructions for producing a specific product on a line or workstation. Keep your work instructions up to date and effectively manage change by hosting work instruction files in a central repository.
Material Process Handling
Provide dashboard visibility and notifications for raised material events to reduce waiting time and production flow disruption with fast and accurate material process handling response. Standardize and improve the efficiency of your material handling processes by guiding your team through the material handling activity and reporting steps in response to a raised request. Continuously improve your material handling processes by evaluating and analyzing your material events history with dashboards for event count and average lead time.
