David Packard Company Leverage Rapid Reports to Improve Shop Utilization
Not only does Datanomix’s real-time display of production data solve communication gaps between management and shop floor machinists, but the cycle time records also enable the shop to improve the accuracy of its customer quotes and completion dates.
DPC saw a combined 15% increase in shop output after implementing the Datanomix software, and they have replaced 15 different reports that Dipietro and his team would run weekly with a single application. They spend less time assembling data and spend more time assessing the data. Hours are recovered by displaying key statistics such as set-up time, tool breakage, first part times, and exact cycle times.
