Automated systems have increased the productivity of your business and you have masses of data describing your process… but is everything captured?
One possible problem with automated data gathering is that it often fails to capture the human operator’s role in the process. This very valuable “latent knowledge” is often held by experienced employees. Their experience allows them to change settings and parameters on the go in order to affect the output. The problem here is that their inputs are often not recorded, so the knowledge is not shared through the organization.
Smart Factory has developed an application which works alongside our solutions to allow you to add human inputs to your data store.
We call this MDES – Manumatic Data Entry System.
This app can work from a simple tablet and be customised to your process.
