Software Provides Manufacturing Insight

Jan. 10, 2010
FactoryTalk VantagePoint EMI business intelligence software for manufacturing is designed to help empower users at every level of an enterprise with information from Web-based dashboards and reports on key performance indicators from multiple manufacturing and business data sources. 
The software connects to multiple data sources—real-time, historical, relational and transactional—to create a single resource that can access, aggregate and correlate information via a Web browser. The application is based on a unified production model (UPM) that provides a unified view of seemingly disparate manufacturing data and gives a context for relationships among equipment, product, materials and people. The software allows users to report data through tools including Microsoft Excel, Trend and SAP Business Objects Dashboard Builder, and view it through the FactoryTalk VantagePoint software, Microsoft SharePoint and other portals. The application can be used to address single or multiple manufacturing problems, on one manufacturing line or across a global enterprise.
