After two unsuccessful implementations of other production monitoring tools, Louisiana Fish Fry onboarded Nulogy Smart Factory.
The team needed to know when the plant was having a good day or a bad day in order to improve efficiency and throughput. For the best results, they needed a Smart Factory solution that provides:
- A visual representation tied into the job schedule to help workers self-motivate their progress; and
- Analytics to address why there was excessive downtime.
- A better understanding of the volume and causes for their frequent downtime that would function as both a motivational tool for employees as well as a focal point to help maintenance crews prioritize their efforts to improve uptime.
The Smart Factory dashboard helped identify downtime causes such as equipment breakdowns. Louisiana Fish Fry can now use this data as part of their capital planning and budgeting:
- What has been the biggest hindrance to getting orders out on time?
- Where have we seen the largest source of downtime?
- Can we spend money to address that?
Most customers see a return on investment within the first three months of working with Nulogy Smart Factory software (and optional hardware). Contextualized data helps our partners maximize efficiency, manage availability and take the guesswork out of their next expansion.
