Datanomix Increases Leadership Position in Production Monitoring and Factory Analytics Software with Expanded Capabilities

Nashua, NH, Nov 17, 2020 —Datanomix, the leading provider of Data-Powered Production™ software for industrial manufacturers, today announced a major update of its software designed to put production data in context for industrial manufacturers.

Datanomix is the industry’s first hands-free, plug-and-play production monitoring solution that requires No Operator Input™, no ERP integration, and automatically benchmarks and scores running jobs using only data from the manufacturing equipment itself.

After successfully launching the Datanomix platform to dozens of customers in 2019, Datanomix has become the gold standard for manufacturers who want to use data collection technology to benchmark and optimize job performance on the factory floor. In addition to job performance intelligence, the company has launched new capabilities that bring simplicity and improvements to both operations and planning functions, which are historically challenging areas for factory leadership.

“When we entered the field, we observed that machine monitoring, while helpful to understanding whether machines were running or not, did not direct users to action, problem-solving, or even improve productivity. We changed the game by focusing on job performance benchmarks and putting the factory production information into simple visual cues for users,”  said Greg McHale, Datanomix Founder and CEO. “Our software gives a real-time performance score of every job on every machine based on comparisons to performance benchmarks that the software establishes on its own.”

The latest product release introduces new functionality such as quote calibration, job scheduling, and the now famous morning coffee cup reports – Datanomix automatically sends users an email every morning at 6 AM, which serves as the morning production meeting backdrop—reviewing key information and insights in mere minutes while enjoying your morning cup of joe. With quote calibration and job scheduling, Datanomix addresses the critical pain points of true job costing and predictive on-time job delivery.

Newly released functionality of Datanomix and benefits include:

• Quote Calibration – Measures the actual cost of machining based on your real performance, allowing you to compare quote estimates to actual performance to understand job margin and quote accuracy.
• Scheduling – Visual planning tool that allows you to plan, track, and predict job execution across your machines using actual data from the Datanomix platform. Eliminates the guesswork around how long jobs should take and when they’ll be done.
• Coffee Cup Report – A daily digest of every job on the floor from the previous day and how it performed against benchmarked expectations, serving as the backdrop for the morning production meeting and the priority list of GMs and supervisors alike.
• Factory Floor TV Mode – A factory floor visual broadcasting system that shows job performance scores, highlights machine alarms, and key statistics for every job in real time. Floor personnel see and respond to areas needing attention to get higher job scores, improving productivity and prioritization as the day unfolds instead of waiting until tomorrow to know what went wrong yesterday.

Jesse Bunnell, [former] Production Manager at Eptam Precision, has been using Datanomix software for several months with great success: “Datanomix’s powerful reporting functions clearly show us where we’re winning and where we need to improve. Quote calibration gives us a machining cost for each part from the machine itself: no estimation, no ERP extracts, just the facts. In 15 minutes each day, the coffee cup report gives me a complete picture of yesterday’s results without having to walk the floor or counting parts. It’s automatic. No disruption to operators while they are starting their shift. I have the answers I need to run the business.”

Datanomix offers a simple, all-inclusive subscription pricing model for its software. As new features like the ones above are added, they automatically appear in customer portals when released. Product installation is simple and non-intrusive. When combined with the fact that Datanomix does not require human input or ERP integration, Datanomix’s simple, turnkey approach to production monitoring is best in class.
