Most
companies today have made significant investments into company
wide software systems, largely in the enterprise resource
planning (ERP) and manufacturing execution areas only to
find out that they aren't getting the return on their investment
that they expected.
Does this sound
like your plant floor? If so Sabino Creek's VisualQueue© with
over 10 years in development may be just what you are looking
for. Visual Queue works closely with your existing ERP system
by providing a software platform that incorporates lean demand-driven
manufacturing technology with advanced shop floor and enterprise
optimization lean techniques. Visual Queue is the practical
common sense plant floor software solution that bridges the
gap between your ERP system and the work being performed
on the manufacturing plant floor. The marriage of these two technologies
will enable your enterprise to transition and sustain significant
performance improvements including reduced inventory and
cycle times and improved throughput and customer service. The VISUALQUeue© Payoff The payoff for VisualQueue© is
measured as part of the whole lean initiative. These paybacks
focus on the deadly wastes surrounding increased inventory
levels, poor worker productivity, missed or late customer
shipments and overall plant inefficiency. The other improvements
are more incremental, but over time the quality and customer
service improvements (by way of reduced lead times) provide
major boosts.
Quality improvements alone with
implementing VisualQueue© will
typically pay for the system in short order. With fewer RMA's,
happier customers, improved plant efficiency (by being able
to do more with what you already have) and an improved overall
bottom line will give you a boost in this difficult economic
time.
The marriage of these two technologies
(ERP and VisualQueue©) will enable your enterprise to transition and sustain significant performance
improvements including reduced inventory and cycle times
and improved throughput and customer service.
