Clorox had several challenges that needed to be overcome. Those included:
• Replace manual processes with automated data capture and accurate, consistent efficiency metrics
• Boost overall equipment effectiveness (OEE)
• Build a culture of understanding and driving out losses on the plant floor
• Accurately benchmark against other plants across the Clorox cleaning products division
After reviewing several different vendors, Epicor Informance was selected and fully implemented within two months. Informance provides the ability to track all key production components of the site’s molding and packaging lines, including 15 individual machines.
Additional benefits of utilizing the Epicor Informance Enterprise Manufacturing Intelligence (EMI) system included:
• Real-time scorecards and scoreboards on the shop floor
• Easy-to-use, easy-to-understand visual solution to drive root cause analysis
• Out-of-the-box visibility, reporting, and analysis for fast time-to-value
• Pre-implementation project ensured successful startup at go-live
