Data is defined as the lowest level of abstraction, it’s difficult to draw any inference from raw data on its own. Data when presented in a meaningful form is considered Information, this information when further processed and reported formally, becomes Knowledge. Gathering and maintaining this Information is a major challenge for every organization doing any business in any part of the world. Today’s release is aimed at understanding the problems related to Data and Data Management. So Let’s first consider the importance of Data, its management and why is it so important to have robust data architecture? Each Organization in the world generates large volumes of Data every day, every hour, every minute; practically all the time. However this data becomes useless if not stored in a proper Database and not processed in a strong Database Management System. Today IT is the biggest concern globally and opposed to normal belief these concerns are not being eliminated rather they are escalating.The reason for the above statement is, products being manufactured worldwide are becoming more and more complex and the need to have the right information as and when required is more intense than ever. Knowledge Management and Information processing have become a strategic concern globally. There are a myriad of Database Management products and so called ‘solution’ providers, who claim to provide a tailor made solution for your requirements. So if you are an Organization facing trouble managing data and don’t want to go for a standard package with limited functionality, then what should you do? The answer is you need to gauge your requirement and ask yourself these questions- 1) Do we need real time database management and data processing capabilities? 2) Do we require to Tap Data directly from tools to our MES or present System? 3) Do we require features Like SPC, APC, RFID integration, Inventory & Ops Management? 4) Do we need to monitor Safety, Quality and Equipment issues in real time? 5) Is Knowledge Management and Information flow a top priority for us? If the answer to all or majority of these questions is ‘YES’, then you need to consider I2DS as your strategic partner. We at I2DS understand the prevalent issues pertaining to Data Management and Data Architecture and we are committed to work out the best solutions for our customers, our aim is to provide world class Information-Knowledge Management Solutions at reasonable prices.

I2DS, a leading provider of MES, LIMS, Data Analytics and Manufacturing Excellence products is all set to launch their new product suite designed for the SME manufacturers. The product is expected to be one of the best and most economic solutions for Organizations seeking a hassle free, yet customized MES solution. Intelifab is being launched globally and is keenly anticipated by the American, European and Asia Pacific regions.
Highlights:
• Intelifab, is a scalable, agile and configurable application, aimed at providing customized functionality for SME manufacturers. It is a SaaS application and provides a single and comprehensive platform for the entire operation. It is fully hosted on the Cloud and is an ideal solution for Organizations looking for a secure web-based MES.
• Intelifab Saas is a fully cloud based solution and it requires zero investment from the client on any software or hardware besides the application. The product allows companies to pay on per/user basis and helps save cost and time required unlike that required for a traditional in-house MES rollout.
“Intelifab as a SaaS application is a better choice for an Organization which is looking to save costs associated with a full-time dedicated IT department, Servers and other hardware required in a traditional MES implementation. We at I2DS strongly believe that cloud based applications are the future in the MES space and strongly recommend it for SME Organizations. We believe that over a period of time SaaS based applications will start making more sense even for larger organizations. As we speak, we are in the process of developing cost effective cloud-based applications for the bigger manufacturers. The main reason for our launching Intelifab in a SaaS model is the fact that currently it makes a lot of sense for smaller Organizations to completely outsource both the MES and its maintenance in terms of data-base management and upgrades. The client can then concentrate their resources on their core competence and the area of operation they see as most value adding” said Vivek Bhachawat, VP of Products and Services .
Business Outlook:
Intelifab, scores where other cloud-based applications miss, in terms of customization, process adaptability, integration time and over-all process improvement achieved. The SaaS model becomes more effective for Organizations seeking a fast upgrade from status quo to a state-of-the –art solution.
“Intelifab will gain popularity among a wide range of manufacturers; this can be attributed to the fact that being in the SaaS mode the applications can provide modularity and flexibility, both in terms of cost and functionality required. Organizations can now choose the plant or functional area which needs Intelifab the most, either fully or in part, decide the number of users and pay only for what they require, and that too without having to worry about any additional cost related to IT and support. Intelifab in the SaaS model will penetrate extremely fast in various regions of the world as the concept of SaaS is already in vogue, and added to that the expertise I2DS brings on the table; it’s a win-win for all. Our prospective clients are already excited about this application and will be amazed by the value added to their business as Intelifab rolls out on their shop-floors” says Vivek Bhachawat, VP of Products and Services.

Operational Excellence, a lot comes to mind when this term is mentioned, it is what all organizations wish to achieve, and they strive for and are in constant pursuit of. The ends of such a pursuit are pretty clear, which would be becoming the Best-In-Class operation, Profit Maximization, Elevated levels of throughput, Cost minimization and Quality excellence. However, the means of achieving the same are process specific and need to be handled with a great degree of individuality and extreme caution. Management practices like Benchmarking, TQM, Lean etc. will only lead to improved competence, but to achieve operational excellence, the approach cannot be generic, it has to be tailor made to suit your operational set-up and should be as per your internal capabilities and external environment.
Achieving process excellence needs an Organization wide commitment, starting from the very top. When the pursuit of excellence becomes a main focus area of the top management, achieving excellence will become a lot easier. The top management should understand the reasons for having an excellent operation and truly believe that through sustained and coordinated efforts achieving operational excellence is well within reach. Top management should remain pro-technology and understand that one of the key contributors to achieve increasingly better performance is through the application of end-to-end information systems, which have the capability of monitoring, controlling and executing the entire process on a single platform. Information solutions help operations gain clarity and makes coordinated efforts possible. Achieving operational excellence becomes less challenging when the process functions as a single entity, this integration is possible only through information solutions that have the capability of integrating the process right from, receipt of raw materials to dispatch of ready to ship products.
Besides management commitment and technology, there are other key contributors to the pursuit of excellence; they are- employee training/participation, Quality means 0 defects philosophy and management by common sense. These factors are equally important and can mean the difference between success and failure of the entire endeavor. However, for this article my major area of concern remains the importance of technology and even more so the role of IT in the pursuit of Operational Excellence. So coming back to the area of focus, I believe information solutions can help reduce cycle time, operational expense, inventory and operational errors greatly. IT should be considered the foundation for building a strong and profitable process. Top management should consider developing either in-house IT capabilities or if they want to concentrate on core competencies they should consider outsourcing IT, but only to a capable and well equipped partner, with relevant industrial experience and expertise. The major benefit of employing an IT expert is that the resources of the organization could be used to improve issues related to the core competency and an expert can design a process specific solution and provide change management and employee training as well.
Your pursuit for operational excellence can benefit from just one word, which is MES. Yes, MES applications are those information technology applications that provide an integrated platform, which allows the execution of the entire production and QC process on a single system. The MES automates the entire facility and prevents the formation of bottlenecks. An MES application allows for real-time decision making and allows the operations manager to stay ahead of bottlenecks.MES applications are being employed by the best-in-class organizations to increase their throughput and ultimately their profitability. However the level of throughput you are able to attain for your plant depends on the partner you choose for the design and application of MES at your facility. At this point I would recommend that you consider I2DS as your MES design and application partner continue reading and you will know why.
