The Business Case for Operations Management Systems

摘要

UNPLANNED DOWNTIME, THE INABILITY TO MAINTAIN PLANNED PRODUCTION RATES, SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL INCIDENTS - all of these business problems can be traced directly to recurring equipment failures and to recurring operations mismatches in production rates and capacities, which cause unplanned shutdowns and early equipment failures. There was a time when many companies tolerated equipment failures as inevitable or as just another cost of doing business. But some of the most recognizable names in global industry have learned that equipment failure is not inevitable, that predicting and eliminating equipment failure is possible with a comprehensive Operations Management initiative. With the ability to forecast and manage the performance of every asset in every part of every operation, companies are improving reliability, safety and compliance - and saving millions.
