Manufacturing Intelligence
A client in the food and beverage industry located in Vermont has been using paper to track previous and future maintenance operations. Every week, the maintenance operators would write down the maintenance operation that needed to be performed for each piece of equipment on a large piece of paper. This paper was then displayed in the maintenance shop.
The information that was being tracked included:
Once a week the maintenance manager had to go through the multiple pages and write down the data into an Excel spreadsheet. This old-school way of doing things was creating several problems:
Hallam-ICS was asked to create a user-friendly and interactive application. A web application using ASP. Net and a Microsoft SQL Database was developed to mimic the existing Excel spreadsheet. This enabled the user to have an interactive application that they would be comfortable using.
By logging into the computers that are available in the maintenance shop, the operators can now enter the tracked data directly into simple forms within the application. This new application saves the manager about two hours a week and reduces the number of human errors. The data is now saved into a secured database and backed up daily. The solution devel- oped by Hallam-ICS also includes interactive reports to analyze previous operations and help answer the following questions:
In addition, a new report displays the next planned maintenance operations by line and equipment.
