Fundamentally it will automatically produce all of the information you need to control the performance of the sewing and finishing areas of your factory
You can scan as often as you wish, we recommend four times a day. Thus 2 hours after work has commenced management knows exactly where the problems are, and can take corrective action. The information gathered is “Live” and can be available on the manager’s desk immediately after the scanning process. Each direct operator must be scanned every scanning period. All information is captured including produced minutes, absent time, lost time, off standard time and overtime. Lost time (time that the operator looses through no fault of their own) is captured against a reason, thus highlighting areas that need attention.
After scanning, all work done by the operator is held in an audit trail and can be tracked back, tickets cannot be scanned twice, and this effectively “Seals” the operator’s ability to “Cheat” the system. “Missing” tickets become a thing of the past as operators learn that when a ticket has been scanned an audit trail exists.
There is comprehensive work in progress tracking within the system. When the operation sequence is created certain operations are identified as progress points. There are up to 10 progress points available. These are “Soft Coded” so can be named to suit you
There are a number of bonus structures available, Individual, Group, a combination of Individual and group; piecework and stepped. It is also possible to print the money value of the work completed on the bar-coded ticket instead of the target. This lets the operator calculate exactly how much she/he has earned as during the day/week.
The system will automatically build a skills matrix for every operator, showing what operation types he/she can do and the efficiency that has been reached on the various operations. This information is invaluable when balancing lines, and during the installation of new styles, and is also very necessary to produce training plans to show you where insufficient skills are available.
