Press Release Summary: Real-Time Performance Management by Hertzler Systems Profiled in Quality Digest
Press Release Body: Hertzler Systems Inc., of Goshen, Indiana, has announced the availability of a new research report by the Aberdeen Group, a Harte-Hanks Co. The report reveals that best-in-class manufacturers realize 24 percent more on-time deliveries, have a 30-percent higher level of overall equipment effectiveness, a 29-percent higher overall yield, and enjoy 33 percent greater profit margins when compared to their lower-performing peers.
“Manufacturers attempting to improve both operational and corporate performance should first examine the overall structure of their business processes,” says Matthew Littlefield, a senior research analyst with the Aberdeen Group and co-author of the benchmark report titled “Event Driven Manufacturing Intelligence: Creating Closed Loop Performance Management.”
“As a general theme, we find best-in-class manufacturers are most significantly differentiated from their competition by the incorporation of real-time data into these processes,” says Littlefield. “Specifically, best-in-class manufacturers are more than twice as likely as laggard manufacturers to monitor exceptions on the plant floor in real time, use real-time data in production optimization processes, and in using real-time data for production release and control.”
“This is the first independent study that we’ve seen validate our experience across a wide population,” says Evan Miller, president of Hertzler Systems.
