Will OEE tracking force me to change my existing processes?
To put it simply, no. In fact, doing so would run contrary to the point - OEE software is designed to allow you to take a closer look at what you're already doing, identifying areas for improvement. You get an unbeatable chance to double down on what is working and get rid of what isn't.
Is there any training required for Thrive's OEE software?
The answer to this question is also no. We designed it to be so easy that anyone on the manufacturing floor can use it - from the veterans who have been with your organization for years to the newest employee. We believe that if we have to train you on how to use the software that means we didn't design it properly to begin with.
What are the benefits of a manufacturing KPI dashboard?
A manufacturing KPI dashboard is a great way to not only distill all of the critical information you're collecting into a single source of truth for your organization, but it also does so visually - making it easy for anyone to understand. Not only that, but it contextualizes it against all of the metrics that matter most to you - allowing you to see the improvements you're making in real-time.
