Press Release Summary = Datacraft Solutions ASP Digital Kanban Model Offers Global
Visibility

Press Release Body = As digital kanban solutions continue to spread throughout the
manufacturing industry, industry leader and Digital Kanban pioneer Datacraft
Solutions, Inc. (www.datacraftsolutions.com) is able to draw on the insights and
experiences of their clients to enhance the functionality of offerings. According
to Matthew Marotta, founder of Datacraft Solutions, “We are, in effect, applying the
lessons of continuous improvement to our own platform, optimizing Signum and Curator
to make Digital Kanban implementation more efficient and effective.”

Pressure to reduce lead times, expanding product lines, and global competition
drives the value of digital kanban, a lean manufacturing practice that automates
consumption driven replenishment across suppliers, customers, and the factory floor.
Marrotta added, “Datacraft Solutions’ ASP model provides global visibility into the
plant floor from anywhere in the world, with nothing to install and no software to
maintain.”

Digital kanban aligns inventory levels with actual consumption; a signal is sent to
produce and deliver a new shipment when material is consumed. These signals are
tracked through the replenishment cycle and bring extraordinary visibility to
suppliers and buyers. Working seamlessly with existing visual board systems,
Datacraft Solutions’ Digital Kanban solution allows individual cells or entire
supply chains to realize an immediate and dramatic return from an extremely small
process automation investment, by vastly reducing the management time and
information gathering required to monitor, update and transmit card-based
replenishment needs.

Digital Kanban Internet-based on-demand delivery platform offers key benefits from
the very beginning of an implementation – namely, the elimination of lengthy,
complicated and expensive infrastructure upgrades.
