Manufacturing companies often run complex, interrelated production management processes, and good skills and experience are not enough to manage them. You also need the right tools. In their daily operations, manufacturing companies face these production management challenges:
- Supply chain management - planning the supply of raw materials and managing their delivery to complete production orders on time and minimize capital tied up in the warehouse.
- Supplier management - selecting suppliers and placing orders by defined criteria.
- Inventory management - accurate information on the stock you have and its management.
- Warehouse management - quick identification and locating of raw materials/goods, optimized warehouse operations.
- Production planning and warehouse management - monitoring the production load both when planning production and when preparing a quote for a customer.
- Production optimization - improving production efficiency by providing real-time information on order fulfillment.
- Production management - managing production more flexibly and adjusting the production plan more quickly.
- Product management - tracking and managing product cost and production expenses.
- Production output management - managing and raising production output by tracking the actual task duration, the results achieved, quality and existing variations.
- Using tablets to record production results in real time.
- Different data sources give different information, and reconciling it takes a lot of time.
