Remaining or becoming market leader as a manufacturing company - how to achieve this in a dynamic competitive (battle) field? The urgency of this question is reinforced by the following developments:
 
The urgency is increased by the following developments:
1. Increasing number of product variants (employees must switch faster).
2. Unpredictability market volume increases.
3. Faster order of new products.
4. Increasing complexity of products.
5. Zero defect / first time right performance requires uniform working methods.
6. Differences in skills & staff (permanent-flex, experienced-inexperienced, young-old.
 
'World Class Manufacturing' philosophy offers a starting point, but how to execute this in real day to day life? With Togetr Digital Factory you can respond well to the increased requirements for your company. The digital shop floor is within reach and with it the implementation of effective working methods, cost savings, lead time reduction and significant quality improvement. Digital product passports are created on the fly through simple measurements and IoT data.

Time Tracking & Logging

Togetr Digital Factory offers a start-stop functionality that allows operators to automatically log their hours. This makes both the recording of productive and non-productive time sharper than ever. This is important for the pre- and post-calculation and provides insight into the sometimes significant improvements in the process.

Quality Management

Togetr Digital Factory offers extensive quality management functionality. Operators can easily log technical errors and errors in the process via tickets and assign them to the right product engineer for analysis and follow-up. This leads to sustainable solutions and knowledge building. This also enables prevention of recurring defects.

OCAP & Pareto Analysis

Gaining insight into deviations and how to act is very important. In Togetr Digital Factory, tickets can be categorized, linked to the symptom and root cause. Making Out of Control Action Plans (OCAP) available in a knowledge base provides Operators with input to quickly take the appropriate actions in case of deviations from the defined standard.

Digital Product Passport

Recording how the assembly was carried out, under what conditions and by whom is essential for safeguarding quality data throughout the supply chain. This also applies to the 'tracking' of the materials and material versions used. Togetr Digital Factory automatically ensures that all this data is recorded in the Digital Product Passport; increasingly a requirement in many supply chains.
