Every person in a production operation has the potential to add value to the operation, but many do not understand when they drive value or feel empowered to take action that may generate value. For these important resources to drive improvements they need to know how the results of their actions impact performance. Today most do not!
IPS’s Business Intelligence Solution works in concert with our patented Dynamic Performance Measures (DPMs) to empower every person in a production operation with the information they require to improve the performance of production assets (please see Solutions Page on DPM). IPS Business Intelligence Solutions capitalize on the automation and information technologies installed in production facilities to empower every person with actionable responsibility in the operation to take positive action and drive continuous performance improvement.
IPS consultants develop business intelligence systems providing critical performance information to every person in the production operation, from operations and maintenance through plant and enterprise management. Pertinent information is provided in the right context and timeframe for each job responsibility to enable better business decisions in real time.
IPS utilizes new or existing IT and automation systems as the infrastructure for Real-Time Business Intelligence. IPS has also developed an SAP qualified Endorsed Business Solution called Real Time Finance which works with all major ERP systems, and utilizes SAP’s MII application development environment to provide consistent and contextualized plant floor to CEO Real Time Business Intelligence so that every person in the operation from the frontline operator to the CEO has the real time information to drive actionable results.
IPS has highly trained and talented in-house expertise to consult with you and implement an appropriate and effective solution. Most Business Intelligence available today provides information to the managers and executives of industrial operations and ignores the frontline operators and maintenance personnel. IPS’ Real Time Business Intelligent solutions start by empowering frontline personnel who impact plant performance minute-by-minute more than any other group in the plant. Once the frontline personnel are empowered and driving value, IPS’ Real Time Business Intelligence grows to include every person in the operation with the responsibility of taking action to drive results. This approach provides a culture of improvement in which there is complete alignment from top to bottom and performance management from bottom to top. Clients have never failed to experience outstanding performance improvements with IPS Real Time Business Intelligence.
