ABSTRACT:
Life Sciences manufacturers are feeling new pressure on their operations from many directions. Dynamic market needs, increased compliance requirements, more distributed manufacturing operations, rapid product innovation, lean manufacturing, and the approaching transition to new IT technology all manifest themselves on the plant floor and throughout the enterprise - and often lead to pleas for new technology solutions.
Real-time Performance Management (RPM) solutions acquire manufacturing data in real-time, establish the operating context for that data, and ensure that it is stored in a manner that makes it accessible at later times for a variety of uses. RPM facilitates the visibility of this real-time manufacturing data to users throughout the enterprise, and includes tools for enhanced decision support and role-based display of performance against operating metrics. Event-based triggers notify all who should be informed when important or unforeseen events take place. These solutions help companies achieve a higher level of manufacturing excellence by allowing them to better leverage their detailed manufacturing information.
