In the production industry, machines and installations are one of the cornerstones of a company. How well they work and how high their availability is, has a direct impact on the profitability of the company. That is why production insights and other KPIs are regularly followed-up. In practice, this involves a lot of hassle, such as logging into different systems, downloading files and bringing all information together in Excel files to calculate the most recent state of affairs.
The next stage is to present the insights and subsequently circulate the info to all colleagues who need it to fulfill their daily job and to tackle the issues identified. One often finds out that something went wrong afterwards, in the reports, but rarely a warning is sent when it actually happens.
However, this can all be much easier, more efficient and even real-time. At setup, the InfraLytics platform connects one time to all data sources, on-site or in the cloud. From that moment on it gathers all data in a single system. The necessary insights are generated on the fly and made available on-line. Via the browser, every employee can consult the data relevant to him or her in handy overviews, from home or from the workplace.
With the help of the data science modules, more advanced dashboards are gradually created after start-up, with increasingly rich insights. In the meantime, the platform also continuously monitors whether all data is flowing in properly. This prevents frustrations and incomplete reports.
The result: more complete and faster reporting, higher profitability and lower costs
- No more cash spent on numerous VPN connections and the associated tools and security software
- No more VPN: so less IT staff required or contracts with external service providers can be cancelled or reduced
- Less heavy network connection or lower bandwidth internet line required
- No more manual report generation: save time and personnel costs
