Why use OEE monitoring software?
Overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) is the industrial gold standard for measuring manufacturing productivity and efficiency. Manufacturing operations often measure OEE over time as part of a plan to increase productivity, improve operational efficiencies, and make processes more cost-effective. Learn more in AVEVA’s guide to understanding OEE.
Monitoring OEE can help operators run equipment at its maximum capacity, find bottlenecks and prioritize problems so they can improve the effectiveness of a manufacturing process. OEE analysis can also reduce machine repair costs by helping you pre-empt production shutdowns and prioritize maintenance for the assets you rely on most.
But, your OEE measurements are only as good as your data. That’s where AVEVA comes in. AVEVA’s OEE software integrates with your existing plant automation systems and data sources to both collect data and calculate OEE KPIs automatically.

Key benefits and features of OEE software
Real-time KPI visualization
Real-time metrics and drill-down analytics give you a clear and detailed view of your production process and asset performance. Stakeholders see issues that impact operational performance as they occur, so they can take corrective actions to minimize waste and losses.
Use real-time KPI visualizations to:
- Reduce equipment downtime and production loss
- Increase operating efficiency
- Free operators from manual data collection tasks
Root-cause analysis
You can discover the root causes of productivity losses and process delays by analyzing detailed data on both the performance of your assets and the relationships between different parts of your process. Knowing the root cause of problems lets you continuously improve operational efficiency and plant throughput.
Use root-cause analysis to:
- Increase asset utilization and reliability
- Reduce costs and increase profitability
- Adhere to schedules and improve customer satisfaction
