-in-Class performers are one and a half times more likelythan Average performers to display operational data and metrics in real-time. Andthey are over four times more likely to do so than Laggard performers. For aLaggard performer, this should be your highest priority remediation project. TheAberdeen report shows that it has the highest impact of any of the behaviors studiedin the report.Evan J. Miller, President & CEO of Hertzler Systems recently shared, "It is nosurprise that displaying operational data and metrics in real-time is an importantdifferentiator between Best-in-Class performers and the rest of the world. That'saccording to the Aberdeen benchmark report on Event Driven ManufacturingIntelligence." Miller asserts, "I find it hard to argue with data about productivity, throughput,quality and downtime. Recently one of my people spent a couple days deploying areal-time dashboard at a major foods company. This dashboard rolls up hourlyproduction numbers, downtime and downtime reasons, and OEE (Overall EquipmentEfficiency) on an hour-by-hour basis onto one screen. These numbers are color coded so that they show red if the company is losing moneyand green when they're making money.
