Customer Story Manufacturing Operations Management (MOM) Solution Boosts “ Productivity The MOM solution is an enhanced integrated production planning and shopfloor tracking solution comprising of Raw Material Management, Finished Good Management, Delivery Order Generation and Mobile Shopfloor tracking modules. MOM has been implemented in Racer Technology, one of the leading medical healthcare contract manufacturers. With the implementation of MOM, the outcome for Racer Technology was impressive: • 75% reduction in report generation from 2 hours to 0.5 hour daily • 69% improvement in data capture and production planning time by replacing the manual data gathering and tabulation from 48 to 15 hours • 75% improvement in shopfloor visibility from 2 hours to 0.5 hour daily “ By implementing this system, we greatly reduced human mistakes and saved a lot of time to “doing the paper work” Mr Willy Koh, Founder & CEO, Racer Technology MORE STORIES?
