Our MES suite, ResponseTime Visual Factory gives visualisation of all shop-floor processes and events integrated into your existing ERP and SCADA systems. Giving you visual, real-time, event driven insight into all factory operations as they happen, so that you can push your improvement programs forward. You and your workforce know what is happening at any moment and can make effective decisions to head-off problems.

Created to make it easier to sustain 'lean' techniques and improvement programmes, ResponseTime Visual Factory has the 'Lean' manufacturing approach at its heart and constantly reinforces the best behaviours and a positive change culture in all it's functions.

We understand that implementing 'Lean' manufacturing and continuous improvement programs presents many challenges with both people and practices. Most companies are starting with established systems and working methods that resist change, not least of which are the computer systems.

'Fast, flexible flow' in an I.T. system means having real-time, event driven processes which can respond to demand and let you see the work flow, as it happens.
'Right sizing' means having the building blocks to implement just the right amount of system to fit the needs of each area.
For 'Lean culture' to be effective everyone involved must be able to see and understand every aspect of the operation and its status at all times. This requires much more than a weekly chart on the bulletin board or an obscure departmental spreadsheet. The positive impact of immediate real-time feedback on operators, cannot be overstated.

ResponseTime Visual Factory delivers on these critical objectives as central to its design and gives you all the help and support possible to move your 'lean' improvements forward effectively and encourage good, 'lean' behaviours.
