5 Signs Your Industry Needs to Upgrade Production Control

In an increasingly competitive market, production efficiency is one of the main factors determining the sustainability and growth of an industry. Outdated processes, lack of visibility, and data-driven decisions can lead to high costs, loss of customers, and difficulties in staying ahead of the competition. Identifying the signs that production control needs to evolve is the first step in transforming the factory floor into a more agile, safe, and profitable environment.

1. Delays in Order Deliveries to Customers

The recurrence of delivery delays indicates failures in planning, production control, or the operation's ability to respond to market demands.

2. Lack of Monitoring and Traceability in the Production Process

Lack of real-time visibility compromises the identification of failures, making it difficult to guarantee quality and efficiency at each stage of production.

3. Manual Notes and Constant Rework

Processes based on manual records are more susceptible to errors, loss of information, and rework.

4. Unscheduled Machine Downtime

Unexpected disruptions in the factory environment are usually a reflection of a lack of preventative control.

5. Decisions Made Without Accurate Data and Real Indicators

Making decisions without relying on reliable data limits the capacity for strategic analysis and hinders corrective and preventive actions with agility and precision.
