MANUFACTURING INFORMATICS
Establishing an efficient, adaptable and responsive business or production process within a company as well as between companies is becoming one of the most important activities that companies must implement if they want to respond effectively to the challenges of global markets.
Updated and reliable information is important for key decisions, and access to them is provided by the introduction and the use of advanced information technology in the form of an integrated information system.
Two main requirements that the integrated information system must meet are its ability to manage all functions and processes of the production company, and simple and quick access to update and reliable data in real time, which facilitates key business decisions to users.
Production Information Systems
Companies often manage business information systems and direct industrial process control systems, but the loophole of operational production management remains between them.
This loophole is effectively closed by Production Information Systems, the main functions of which are the control and monitoring of production resources, the control and monitoring of the production process, provision of product traceability and informatization of the planning process.
The system provides its users the acquisition of data on all key production aspects in real time and on those places where they need them.
Production Planning
Quick changes on the market, wide ranges of products, requests for short response times, and unforeseen events cause continuous changes in production plans.
The answer to these challenges is a computer-supported, responsive, flexible and efficient planning process as a part of an integrated Production Information System. Therefore INEA company pays special attention to information support to planning – at the level of balancing the production and sales forecasts as well as the needs of products and materials.
Informatization of the production level with the implementation of Production Information System, inter alia, provides:
- Minimizing production flow times,
- Reduction in stocks and the volume of work in progress,
- Better utilization rate of production resources,
- Decrease of rejects, and
- Time saving in scheduling production operations
And thus helps to:
- Increase production flexibility,
- Improve product quality,
- Attain increased accuracy of delivery times, and
- Attain quicker detailed planning.
