Shop Floor Data Collection
Avanti’s Shop Floor Data Collection module helps you answer the tough question from your customer, “Where’s my job?” It keeps everyone updated on a job’s status while giving you an effective way to capture actuals like time spent on a job and material usage in real time.
Highlights include:
- Automatically update milestones in the Milestone Scheduling and Finite Scheduling modules to provide real-time job status.
- Real-time input through various entry devices like mouse/keyboard, touch screens, or bar coding.
- Instant messaging between shop floor employees and the front office.
- Record shop floor operator comments on job jackets.
- Monitor status of all departments involved in the workflow.
- Track labor, productivity, equipment utilization, spoils, and production rates.
Using the shop floor data collected from Avanti’s system, we were able to pull detailed reports on each employee to determine the actual amount of time that was spent working on a particular job.
