MES Boosts Decision Performance

Sept. 1, 2005
CitectIIM V2.1, the latest version of the vendor’s manufacturing execution system (MES), contains new features to help businesses improve performance and profitability.

The Enterprise Dashboard allows companies with multiple sites to compare the performance of their plants and thus make strategic decisions to optimize production across all plants. The Metrics Analysis View helps operations managers analyze key performance indicators in order to make faster, more informed decisions and sometimes take preventive actions. The Trend Projection Chart provides a timely visual representation of the predicted production result, based on current trends, against the production target. V2.1 also includes three new statistical charts for better analysis of KPI data: Box and Whiskers, x bar and r chart. CitectIIM V2.1 automates report distribution by enabling users to schedule reports to be e-mailed automatically to selected recipients. It also contains an OPC AE client.
