Tooling CPU Analytics
The Ultimate Cost-Saving Solution For Metalworking Manufacturers

Tool Cost Clarity
Tooling is one of the biggest variable costs that manufacturers face every year yet one of the most difficult to consistently manage. Datanomix and Vallen have teamed up to deliver a groundbreaking analytics solution that gives manufacturers visibility into tool usage and costs for the first time. Tooling CPU Analytics revolutionizes how manufacturers track tool costs to drive savings and higher profits.
Vallen’s Supply Chain Solutions help manufacturers manage tool consumption by tracking usage and stock levels for complete control over their high-value inventory. Tooling CPU Analytics collects tool usage data via the Tool Management Track, along with cost data from Vallen, to automatically calculate your cost per unit (CPU). It suggests tools, methods, and vendors to help reduce costs.
Go beyond Lean manufacturing to enhance margins. Tooling CPU Analytics is way more than intelligent cost-reduction; it’s intelligent visibility into the supply chain management of one of your biggest expenses.
