Description

The PICO MES platform empowers manufacturers to modernize and enhance their production processes by consolidating personnel, equipment, tools, and data into a singular cohesive system. This innovative solution provides digital work instructions that include detailed step-by-step guidance and engaging visual aids, along with real-time insights into throughput, yield, and operator efficiency, ensuring comprehensive traceability of every part's manufacturing history. It seamlessly integrates with various tools, including barcode scanners, torque tools, PLCs, vision systems, and ERP/PLM/QMS platforms, among others. Remarkably, PICO can be deployed in just minutes instead of months, connecting effortlessly with existing machinery and business applications without necessitating any major overhauls. This capability makes it suitable for manufacturers of all scales, from small enterprises moving away from paper-based processes to larger corporations optimizing operations across multiple sites. Moreover, its plug-and-play compatibility with over 200 devices and its modular design facilitate the enforcement of standardized work processes in environments characterized by high variability and low volume, allowing for automatic data collection and proactive responses to shop floor challenges as they arise. Ultimately, the PICO MES platform serves as a critical tool for manufacturers aiming to increase efficiency and streamline their operations.

Description

Just Plan It focuses on production scheduling tailored for high-mix, low-volume make-to-order environments. Through collaboration with numerous shops, we have discerned the key factors that contribute to their success. Despite effectively operating an ERP system, CIOvita conducted its production scheduling using custom Excel spreadsheets, which proved inadequate as the company expanded. This method resulted in significant drawbacks, including a lack of visibility and diminished agility. The environment became one of constant change and crisis management. Prior to adopting Just Plan It, Loynds depended on spreadsheets, paper lists, and extensive deliberation to determine delivery timelines and keep their engineering team informed with current work lists, as noted by Richard Loynds, the Managing Director at Loynds. The primary challenge stemmed from the absence of clarity regarding the shop floor's actual activities, compounded by swiftly evolving processes. This lack of visibility frequently led to missed delivery promises, jeopardizing customer relationships and trust. Ultimately, the transition to Just Plan It has provided the clarity and efficiency needed to improve operations significantly.
