Enhancing Operational Efficiency for a Custom Metal Fabricator.
The Challenge
A custom metal fabricator faced inefficiencies due to limited integration between their ERP and plant floor management systems. These blind spots hindered their ability to access real-time metrics, impacting production planning and profitability.
Our Approach
Through LoBI, we uncovered that fragmented data workflows led to costly delays and inefficiencies. We developed an integrated reporting system that bridged ERP and plant systems, aligning with the organization's goal of reducing waste and improving margins. Additionally, we introduced new metrics for job-cost analysis and forward-looking reports to optimize decision-making.
- Enhanced real-time metrics reduced decision-making risks.
- Unveiled hidden inefficiencies through new metrics, leading to significant cost savings.
- Forward-looking reports enabled proactive resource planning and waste reduction.
This system has become a cornerstone of the fabricator's operations, continuously driving efficiency and fostering a culture of data-driven innovation.
