TadaNow’s Production Control Tower creates stability
With unprecedented shifts in demand, channels, and material supply, we find streamlined flows in factories are falling apart. TadaNow’s Production Control Tower quickly creates stability with steps to bridge gaps in information, in processes and in roles. TadaNow recommends and tracks series of tight actions needed to avert line downs by integrating your current systems into simplified workflows.
TadaNow Production Control Tower Applications
Gain operational visibility within your factory or a network of factories. Get real-time insights into the hands of the production teams to meet daily production targets efficiently.
After deploying our solution at many production facilities, we have crafted the top applications used by common production personas. These applications are included with every Production Control Tower, and users can mix and match, as well as customize these applications to fit their organization’s needs.
Click each of the apps below for more information.
Production Schedule Management
Production Schedule Management provides visibility to material availability for a 30-day window and alerts planners with a “clear to build” signal at a model build level to “start-on-line.” The application enables production schedulers to dynamically replan and alert teams to execute alternate build plans.
Digital Orderboard
Manage orderboard with smart intelligence, gaining real-time visibility to delivery status for open orders. Digital Orderboard provides the ability to track production, shipment status, and prioritize open orders. It helps manage back orders and aging orders proactively by enabling users to develop and manage their recovery plan.
Labor Utilization
Labor Utilization provides a connected view to burden reports with the ability to collect data over time for analysis and diagnostics, identifying resource gaps and options based on skills/training.
Inventory Monitor
Inventory Monitor is designed to Improve Factory Inventory Turns and reduce PoU impact on the line. It delivers prescriptive recommendations on safety stock levels, reorder points, and economic order quantities (EOQs). Built-in workflow tools allow planners to track actions and achieve inventory target Line of Sight.
Factory Performance Management
Factory Performance Management provides seamless operational visibility to factory performance on a daily and hourly basis. It enables factory managers and production teams to digitally collaborate and manage actions to meet daily production goals.
Constraint Management
Constraint Management provides a 7-day and 30-day view of production constraints (man, machine and material) at a work area/line level. It enables schedulers to manage production risks proactively, improving overall productivity and efficiency.
Production Control Tower Workbenches
Most companies have limited ability to answer what can be built today let alone tomorrow.
Tada’s Production Control Tower empowers factory managers and decision makers to execute meaningful predictive and prescriptive business decisions that synchronize material availability at point of use, labor efficiency and machine constraints.
Collaborate and manage your production like never before with customized workbenches for various production roles, including Production Scheduler, Material Planner Operation Supervisor and Supply Chain/Factory Manager. With Tada’s no-code architecture, all the applications and metrics your team needs are one click away.
