Any process is as strong as its weakest operation. Bottlenecks are the reality of all production processes and all experienced managers understand that the bottlenecks keep changing over time. Bottlenecks can be dealt with more effectively if the management has the capability to track them and understand the reason for the said bottleneck. In today’s highly competitive environment achieving a high throughput is considered mandatory, while keeping the inventory and operational expenses low. This makes Asset Management extremely important, especially in a manufacturing environment where assets such as Machinery, Equipment, Tools and Resources are procured at a high capital cost.
Automation and Integration through sophisticated Information Systems have made asset management a lot more convenient, cost effective and fast. Information when used properly and obtained right from the source of the problem can prove to be extremely helpful in locating and improving the bottleneck capacity. It is only through information systems that even processes with high complexity can be managed in a better and more profitable manner. Organizations that are leading their industries today have been able to do so only through effective management of assets, by the application of IT solutions.
Due to the better functionality that IT solutions can provide in Asset Management, there are a myriad of standard of-the-shelf packages that are available in the market. However, purchasing a standard off-the-shelf package can be a lethal trap and expose the process to a greater degree of risk. Every production process is unique; this is because each process has a unique set of environmental conditions and process capabilities. Process specific systems that have been designed exclusively for your process are a better choice. This is because a process specific solution deals with your unique problems and needs.
