Gain insight into your operations through real-time data aggregation and connectivity to multiple data sources, presented in an intuitive and intelligent manner. ICONICS OEE solution is driven by our BizViz Productivity Analytics suite, which helps you to establish manufacturing context with KPI's and deliver manufacturing intelligence to your entire operation.

Key Features

• Configurable KPI's for Lean manufacturing initiatives, with plant specific calculations for OEE, Cycle Time, MTBF, TAKT Time, Efficiency, Throughput and many more.
• Advanced analytics functions with automated reporting. The automatic report generation, real-time intraday and historical status reports allow you to easily perform advanced analytics and what-if scenarios.
• Role-based visual dashboards, allow you to customise individual views based on user roles and groups
• Preconfigured template for manufacturing-based processes, allowing you to get up and running quickly with out-of-the-box report templates, drill-down graphics, interactive charts and KPI's.
• Connectivity to multiple data sources, including those via SQL, SAP, SNMP, Oracle, ODBC and OLE DB. Aggregating vital process information from multiple applications.

Measure and Monitor Asset Performance in Real Time

Today's manufacturing environment demands information in real time. It is no longer sufficient to operate solely based on yesterdays data, or even data from the previous shift. The ICONICS OEE Solution uses powerful data-mining technology to track real time key performance indicators. Even if you are not actively monitoring a particular asset you can receive automatic alerts when certain metrics approach the 'danger zone' based on preconfigured threshold levels.

Personalised Dashboards, Reports, Trends and KPI's

The powerful Web Interface allows users to design, develop and deploy dashboards, reports, trends and KPI views to effectively visualise vast amounts of available manufacturing and business information. Dashboards can optionally be hosted within the role-based Microsoft SharePoint environment to further enhance the user experience and collaboration capabilities.

Reduce and Prevent Unplanned Downtime

One of the most important goals of any process improvement initiative is to reduce the amount of unplanned downtime. The ICONICS OEE Solution enables you to drill into the root cause of every downtime event as a way to correlate seemingly random data together into actionable intelligence. Layer real-time views on top of historical or 'ideal' performance data to help establish preventative maintenance procedures and avoid future unplanned downtime.

Make Informed Decisions to Increase Production Efficiency

The ICONICS OEE Solution helps operators, supervisors and managers respond to pressures within today's manufacturing environment by reducing cycle times, lowering costs, identifying improvement opportunities to streamline processes and getting more out of their assets. Standard out-of-the-box reports highlight under-utilised or over-utilised assets and help line managers schedule preventive maintenance on the equipment that needs it most. Properly maintained equipment results in less overall downtime, which in turn results in higher production efficiency.

Intuitive Context Driven Navigation

The ICONICS OEE Solution provides an intuitive Web-based navigation system that allows you to traverse your data as efficiently as possible. The customisable nature of the navigation tree's hierarchy means you can explore your assets in a way which mimics your production layout in order to view relevant data at any level of the enterprise. Since the right click context menu offers only the choices that are relevant to the current level, users don't even have to think about what the 'right' command is, they have it right at their fingertips.

Fast, Efficient Web-based Configuration

The ICONICS OEE Web Interface builds upon the power of the Unified Web Interface but adds a whole new level of productivity by offering complete online configuration. You can manage your entire Productivity Analytics application via the Web, from any thin-client Web-enabled browser. Create new assets, modify existing ones, manage shift schedules, assign downtime causes, manage user preferences and much more.
Some of the other notable time-saving features include the ability to connect to and manage multiple locations from one centralised interface, a new layout and menu system to make better use of the available real-estate on the screen, progressive data loading for improved performance, and client-side rendering of the controls for a richer user experience. Several user-centric enhancements have also been added, including:

• A context menu that provides shortcuts to the most common functionality
• Support for multi-item editing, enabling faster configuration and deployment
• Specialised 'My Favorites' section for keeping track of your most important views
• Secure, role-based access to configuration pages and dialogs
• Support for complete customisation of the look and feel through configuration files
• Import and export support for rapid asset creation
