Visiprise SFM includes features that drive better manufacturing operations results:

Improved visibility to improve shop floor operations - Manufacturing Management get real-time schedule and performance data for total visibility of where all orders stand at all times. Shop Floor Supervisors access accurate status of shop floor activities for effective management of resources. Shop Floor Operators receive up-to-date manufacturing information with multimedia work instructions

Access to accurate and timely data - provides real-time schedule and performance data to inform plant managers where all orders stand at all times—what is happening and what needs to happen to optimize plant performance and profitability.

Compare “actual versus standards” performance reports and real-time status reports—by product line or section, single and multiple cells within the fabrication center.

Comprehensive resource management - All build process transactions are stored in a relational database, providing access to real-time decision-making data. Up-to-the-minute access is available for the status of all operations on manufacturing, tooling, and rework orders.

Easy-to-use work assignment controls - track and direct staff utilization, based on certifications, work patterns or business needs. Certifications are integrated with the authoring tools and are managed for personnel based on level and expiration date.

Manage labor activity - View labor activity for an entire work center staff or for a particular employee—up-to-the-minute, including elapsed time.

Eliminate paper through electronic work instructions – eliminates lost, illegible or outdated paperwork. Automatic revision control helps assure precise specification communications and promotes consistent job performance.
