ERP Software done correctly can be a great tool for improving a business. Done badly, it can demoralize employees and drive down business results.
Case-in-point:
“My experience with SAP was of an all-purpose integrated business solution. At the beginning of the day, I clocked in using an SAP applet. Next, I would go through a set of SAP generated planned-production orders, direct work orders, or reported directly to my supervisor. After looking through the routing information (generated through SAP), I would complete the specified task. When the task was complete, I would “clock-off” on the job, which entailed bringing the PPO to a computer, scanning it into an SAP applet, and entering my badge number (employee ID). Another thing I found interesting was the request to clock off on all activities. Even if I had only swept or scraped tape off the floors (it was a slow summer), I was asked to clock off on something called “lean labor.” I found this curious, though I suppose from an efficiency standpoint it was very important. To refer back to these “value-chains,” it is important to know exactly what every employee, piece of inventory, and work order are doing at any given time. Whether it is benig worked on, working on something, or finished, this real-time updating system allows everyone company-wide to see which projects are in progress, which are complete, and which have not been touched. Also from a managerial standpoint, it is important to see how much work each individual employee is doing and how well they are performing, not to mention that employee’s ID will always be attached to that job if future concerns arise.
Now from a business standpoint this is all well and good. But what about the employee? A lot of days, clocking and clocking out I felt as though it did not matter whether or not I was even there. There were simply no jobs to be done for entire weeks at a time, but that did not change that I had to “clock out” for certain jobs. Of course, a business wants to make sure that all of its employees are being as productive as possible, but clocking out on cleaning out the same area 3 times during a week seemed redundant and absurd. Not to mention clocking out on an activity such as “material handling” or “lean labor” is fairly arbitrary. This of course necessitated a manager to scold me when my productivity levels fell (ie playing Frisbee with a cardboard box in the back). It is important to note that I was simply summer-hired as well. Working full time at a job as a number would eventually get fairly tedious. As one of my co-workers noted to me, they had simply clocked in and clocked out for a couple of weeks and clocked off on none of the jobs they were doing. No one said anything to him. So who’s checking these jobs?” – Andrew Mellino
Implementing technology to collect data is one thing, but ERP should not be just about the numbers. ERP ideally should be “process improvement enabled by technology.” It should not be a tool to harass the employees. This is a key concept to understand when implementing and going through the design phase. Which processes are broken and which processes are working fine. Once you have defined that, then see where the ERP software can enable best business practices. It is essential that the employees have a buy in and provide feedback to this step.
If you get the employees to buy into the implementation and how it will change their jobs, you will gain the benefits of higher utilization of the system and overall better adoption. If you fail this step, you will have a failed ERP implementation. There is a saying that you should “drive data collection to the source.” This means that you should have the person who is directly responsible for the source of that data be the one who is entering it. When the ERP system is not implemented with the employees in mind, the employees will be unmotivated to use the system, ensure that the data is accurate, or even bother to put in correct information.
With the help of your line employees, design in best practices and work with them to build a system that they will use and will benefit not only them by making their jobs easier, but also benefit the whole company by driving positive results.
CMMS software has been developed over the past twenty years and now provides one of the broadest ranges of functionality in the industry including:
* Asset hierachy management
* Storage of documents
* Inventory control
* Scheduliing of maintenance
* Integration with main project management packages
* Programmable SMS and email alert
Ultimately, the purpose of any CMMS is to provide management reporting, process optimisation and control, compliance and cost reduction. For more information on this see the CMMS software white paper that describes the benefits.
Any leading CMMS needs to be architecturally constructed using a range of software modules so that it can be tailored to meet the requirements of any particular installation.
Managers particularly benefit from the familiar Windows-based user interface that enables the information dashboard to display the data required by the manager. Standard reports that can be customized to meet individual requirements are very helpful in ensuring that each member of the reporting hierachy is given exactly the information that they require.
Software Modules.
Typically the modules will cover the full range of maintenance management requirements including:
* Process management
* Scheduled Maintenance
* Asset Register
* Inspections & Lubrication
* Documents & Drawings
* Reporting functions
* Inventory management
* Condition Tracking
* Communication with mobile staff
Mobile Maintenance Management
One of the most popular modules is Mobile Maintenance.
This is because great efficiencies can be gained by allowing technicians to access real time data via a PDA.
Maintenance manager and technicians can contact each other via email or SMS to their PDA or smart phones.
System Security
A true enterprise-class CMMS software solution must be able to be implemented on a group-wide basis covering multiple sites and campuses. Based on proven Microsoft Windows platforms it is straight-forward for in-house IT teams to maintain the infrastructure. The CMMS software is fundemental to any business, so naturally, the security policy and its implentation is paramount.
Solution implementation
Any CMMS software solution is only as good as its implementation. Most vendors provided experienced engineers, maintenance process specialists and project managers on a consulting basis to help you implement your CMMS correctly first time and then use it to take maximum advantage from it to achieve fast return on investment.
Computer slowness can be caused by the variety of points among which can be 2 categories: hardware or the software. The computer hardware is physical part of computer system, for example, a parent payment, the processor, memory etc. The computer software is all programs and the appendices established on the personal computer. The software includes operating systems, as Microsoft Windows XP or Vista and all appendices, such as Microsoft Office, Photoshop etc.
It is necessary to check up:
* Start of programs
* Protection against viruses and espionage scanning
* Hard Drive Out Of Space
* Fragmentation of a hard disk
* Bad sectors or the damaged files
* The Overheat because of a dust
The most widespread reason of the slow computer is not necessary appendices in a background mode. When new program appendices are established many times over they will be adjusted on the beginning automatically at computer loading.
These appendices are not always necessary, and will occupy a part of operative memory of the computer (RAM) which in turn, will slow down computer work downwards. To check up that the appendix will be started automatically, presses button “Start-up”, then press the button to Execute, and then press the button APPRX. After system Configuration Utility is opened, press the insert Automatic loading.
Cancelling of any programs on the insert will not delete them from the computer; it will be simple to hold them from automatic start each time. I recommend cancelling all appendices, which you do not need. If you see the software which does not recognize it there can be instructions from virus espionage programs.
If your computer works slowly, it, most likely, is infected by a virus and / or espionage programs. Everyone should have the anti-virus software established, updated and works for all times.
You should hold it always updated, and regularly scan system on presence of viruses. The majority of anti-virus programs do not check on presence of espionage programs so if your computer is infected by espionage, you should download specialized removals of the espionage software. There are 2 programs, which I use all the time, Spybot and Adware; they are absolutely freely to use. After loading and installation of these programs, make necessarily execute updating and scanning of all computers.
If files are stored on your computer on the rigid disk they are not always stored in the most effective way and can become fragmentary character.
For start of the utility of a defragmentation press button “Start-up” choose Programs-> Standard-> system tools-> Disk Defragmentation. Defragmentation process can occupy from 5 minutes till several hours. I recommend to make defragmentation of a hard disk of the computer once in a month.
One more reason of the slow computer can be damaged file system or bad sectors on a hard disk. Bad sectors can damage the file system which can slow down work of the personal computer or even keep its display.
Now they are all over the world – the diverse and versatile computers. No matter if you need them for game or work or for serious industrial processes, in any case the computer hardware must be top quality.
But this computer hardware is flooded with all sorts of offers. That is why it’s vitally important to visit this blog and read computer hardware tips that will help you to choose great stuff for your computer.

OEE measures the overall efficiency of a production line or that of a whole facility. OEE makes a worthwhile improvement towards the productivity of a manufacturing unit. Implementation of software systems invariably benefits the OEE score by up to 20% in the first year. It has been proven that improving the Overall Equipment Effectiveness by just 1% produces a significant variation in the machine’s through put and savings in the unit cost of the produced items.
The OEE score is calculated from 3 elements: Availability, Performance and Quality. Availability equals the percentage of uptime of each manufacturing or plant asset. Performance equals the percentage throughput compared with the target set for it. Quality equals the percentage of scrap. To get the OEE score, multiply Availability by Performance by Quality.
OEE for Operators: Overall Equipment Effectiveness (Shopfloor Series)
Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) is a crucial measure in TPM that reports on how well equipment is running. It factors three elements —the time the machine is actually running, the quantity of products the machine is turning out, and the quantity of good output – into a single combined score. Directly addressing those who are best positioned to track and improve the effectiveness of equipment, OEE for Operatorsdefines basic concepts and then provides a systematic explanation of how OEE should be applied to maximize a piece of equipment’s productivity and recognize when its efficiency is being compromised.

OEE for Operators: Overall Equipment Effectiveness (Shopfloor Series)
Overall Equipment Effectiveness is valuable as a key performance indicator for factory supervisors. Whist the principles of the formula are simple, it can be extremely, highly complicated to calculate in in a working factory. Hence, special OEE software packages are normally used to acquire the data from each element of the manufacturing process and make the OEE calculation quickly. Typically this software is of a modular structure to give it maximum flexibility and allow it to fit with existing plant and data capture facilities and enterprise resouce planning system.
After the data has been capture and analysed, it is only useful once converted into reports that are reliable. OEE software from the main vendors gives a selection of reports that can be customzed and analyzed to faciliate the user to uncover what he is focused on.
OEE is accepted as the corner stone of lean manufacturing. via continuous improvements a manufacturing plant can become more energy efficient, improve productivity and decrease departmental silo-mentality as well as uncover and control risk. All aspects of manufacturing must comprehend the principles and practice of OEE and how it relates to the lean manufacturing principles as a key force for productivity manufacturing now and in the future.
