4 Ways IFS Applications will improve your Manufacturing Productivity

Mar 06, 2020

IFS Applications is designed to enhance the overall process of running a business. It helps with the optimization of the operations that are needed in every company thus leading to better outcomes. IFS Applications does not have any set way of handling tasks. Companies can modify it easily to suit their needs. 

Here are some of the ways that IFS Applications can improve the productivity of manufacturing companies: 
  1. IFS Applications can help businesses go through their existing workflows and review them to identify areas for improvement. The software allows businesses to easily analyze the three main parts of running a business: 

    • It can have a look at the tasks and duties assigned to the employees, which can help them determine whether the requirements of that particular task are being fulfilled or not.  

    • Secondly, it can assess whether the stream mapping was done efficiently.  

    • Thirdly, it can find out whether the equipment is in good shape or not. Monitoring the amount of production that takes place within a specified period can help the team analyze whether the machine is capable of producing more or is in need of maintenance. 

  2. Many companies just focus on running the business and producing more to generate more revenue. They tend to forget about the maintenance of their machines and equipment used. IFS Applications can help them remember when the scheduled maintenance is due. The application suite can be used to schedule preventive maintenance in order to avoid any sort of hurdle in the production process. The scheduled maintenance can be divided into intervals, which ensures that the workflow is not greatly interrupted.

  3. Employees can be trained to carry out the tasks that cannot be performed by IFS Applications. The manpower can be allocated to different tasks and duties which will speed up the process of running a business and it will also help improve manufacturing productivity. 

  4. The offices that many employees used to work in previously when the IFS application was not in use, can now be re-purposed. Many tasks can easily be performed with the help of IFS which can allow some people to work from home or be utilized elsewhere. The information collected is highly credible. It is free from any sort of human error.  Furthermore, the files, data and information related to each manufacturing phase can be stored in an organized manner. The employees no longer have to go through various files in order to find the data they have been looking for.  

Many companies have gradually incorporated the use of IFS Applications into their daily routines as it is not only effective but also saves time and money.
