Capabilities

Capabilities are what Busroot does for you. Each one answers a question a production manager asks, and owns the metrics that measure it. Every capability page explains what the capability is, how it works and how to set it up, then lists the tools where you see it and defines its metrics.

  • Asset Utilisation

    Is each asset working?

    How much of the time each asset is productive, and when it sits idle.

  • Downtime

    Why did we stop?

    Stops detected automatically, with the reason and what each stop cost.

  • Production Tracking

    How much have we made?

    What has been made, of which SKU, compared with the target in real time.

  • OEE

    How close are we to full potential?

    Availability, performance and quality, and where the loss is.

  • Quality

    What did we reject, and why?

    Rejected units recorded against a reason, broken down by cause and cost.

  • Energy Efficiency

    What does each unit cost in energy?

    The energy each station and each unit uses, and the energy wasted when nothing is scheduled.

  • Scheduling

    Are we running to plan?

    Production and maintenance planned for each station, and what ran compared with the plan.

  • Tasks

    Were the checks done?

    Checklists and SOPs completed at the station, with a record of every completed and missed Task.
