Pain Points

Pain Points

01.

Weak coordination between logistics and production

Data sharing across CAPP, ERP, MES, WHS and other systems lacks a workable mechanism, so the value of the data cannot be realised.

02.

Production scheduling is difficult

Data sharing across CAPP, ERP, MES, WHS and other systems lacks a workable mechanism, so the value of the data cannot be realised.

03.

Line-level collaborative automation can be improved

Data sharing across CAPP, ERP, MES, WHS and other systems lacks a workable mechanism, so the value of the data cannot be realised.

04.

Management systems cannot support digital operations

Data sharing across CAPP, ERP, MES, WHS and other systems lacks a workable mechanism, so the value of the data cannot be realised.

05.

Data silos in existing systems leave business data disconnected

Data sharing across CAPP, ERP, MES, WHS and other systems lacks a workable mechanism, so the value of the data cannot be realised.
