5. A Day in the Life of the Factory of the Future
GLOBAL
OPERATIONS
I can see my
production line status
and recommend
adjustments to better
manage operational
cost.
I know when to deploy
the right resources for
predictive
maintenance to
minimize equipment
failures and reduce
service cost.
I gain insight into usage
patterns from multiple
customers and track
equipment
deterioration, enabling
me to reengineer
products for better
performance.
MANUFACTURING PLANT
Aggregate product data,
customer sentiment, and
other third-party syndicated
data to identify and correct
quality issues.
Manage equipment remotely, using
temperature limits and other settings to
conserve energy and reduce costs.
Monitor production flow in near-real time
to eliminate waste and unnecessary work
in process inventory.
GLOBAL FACILITY INSIGHT
Implement condition-
based maintenance
alerts to eliminate
machine down-time and
increase throughput.
THIRD-PARTY LOGISTICS
Provide cross-channel visibility into inventories to
optimize supply and reduce shared costs in the
value chain.
CUSTOMER SITE
Transmits operational information to the
partner (e.g. OEM) and to field service
engineers for remote process automation
and optimization.
