CDC Factory is the first packaged manufacturing operations management system that transforms manufacturing performance by empowering people to take immediate action. By standardizing the best practices of lean manufacturing, OEE and continuous improvement, CDC Factory provides a real-time framework that unites scheduling, operations, quality and maintenance.

CDC Factory tackles the key challenge of habitual factory floor support by providing one simple engine that automates all factory floor processes including real-time production control, MES, quality assurance and dynamic scheduling. Our software design has gone much deeper than creating simple –to-use screens (though they are breathtakingly intuitive).By analyzing each role in the factory we have mapped out information areas that give rise to workplace anxiety and provide real-time intelligence served up in the right format at the right time.

What makes CDC Factory unique:

• It Makes Action Unavoidable. CDC Factory provides real-time information to line operators, their supervisors, managers and executives. It makes the shop floor accountable for its actions. Rates, yields, downtime incidents, changeovers, and even breaks are recorded. In-built workflow procedures ensure workers become accountable in the moment of decision.
  
  
• It is Packaged and Ready to Execute. There is no long customization and implementation process with CDC Factory. Manufacturing best practices and targets are built in, so it is ready to go, out of the box. That is why our typical implementation time is 6-8 weeks (not 12 months) per plant.
  
  
• It Gets Used—Enthusiastically. Operators enjoy using CDC Factory because it eliminates their paperwork. Supervisors and Plant Managers get on board because it boosts their output, gives them immediate visibility to every line, and simplifies their reports. Designed around specific manufacturing roles, CDC Factory serves up the right intelligence, in the right format at the time.
  
  
• It Provides Reliable In-Plant Metrics. Research shows that about 80% of Food & Beverages manufacturers have little confidence in their in-plant metrics —making  reactive daily decisions more challenging. CDC Factory simplifies and clarifies in-plant metrics. It replaces spreadsheets, MES, historian and automation point solutions, and integrates directly with ERP.
