Embed Size (px)

DESCRIPTION

Executing the fundamentals is critical to success. For process management, those fundamentals include well designed and implemented plant floor data collection, management and analytics to support decision making. With these systems in place, the company can establish operational excellence. Without them long term success is impossible. In this presentation, Bill Palmer reviews how the core practices of process management and analytics begin in operations and mature to become key elements of enterprise management. He draws upon his consulting experience to provide case studies illustrating what works effectively in practice.

It’s all about leverage

How does management get leverage on the system.

Push Harder?

Work Harder?

How Does This Play Out in the Plant?

Better Operator Tools

Islands of Information

And, at the end of the day?

Computerized Information is better, BUT…..

Data Automation Shows the Process, But…

Management Needs to Understand the System

1. Convince employees that data is important. Show them you are really using it!! This may be the only best way to minimizing gaming of data.

2. Visualize the system with graphical representations of process data.

3. Understand the system with statistical knowledge.

4. Have the ability to instantly compare and study the necessary data.

Common SPC Analytics Mistake

Assumption: What’s important is the operator seeing the real time process. Mistake: Choosing software based on whether or not the operator will be able to see the real time process. NEWS FLASH: ALL SPC software does that!

A Common Start-Up Mistake

Mistake: Setting up data sources that focus primarily on the needs of the floor user. Problem: The Manager Summary Reporting tools may be “too inconvenient” to use, and therefore will be underutilized. Quite often it is convenient to set up systems to look at a specific process. The big ROI down the road might be from comparing processes.

Centralized Database

Advantage: Data is relatively easy to query. Data that is easy to query, gets queried. Disadvantage: All data must go through the Central Database, so, either all data must be written there, or special utilities must be developed to route data to the Central Database. Disadvantage: You may be limited to the reporting technology that was developed for the Central Database, thereby reducing reporting options.

Decentralized Data Source

Advantage: Data is also relatively easy to query. Data that is easy to query, gets queried.

Advantage: Data or reference information remains in already convenient locations. Disadvantage: Some work needs to be done to relate the data sources to minimize barriers to reporting. *Advantage: Easier to take advantage of reporting advances created by 3rd party vendors.
