MANUFACTURING SOLUTIONSTIBCO Spotfire® provides a wide range of solutions for businesses that manufacture and service products in a variety of industrial sectors extending from high technology to automotive and aerospace. These solutions enable engineering, quality, production, supply chain, equipment, service, and sales and marketing organizations to improve product quality and reliability, maximize utilization of fixed and human assets, shorten cycle and lead times, manage costs, and manage risks associated with supply and demand volatility.

PRODUCT QUALITY AND RELIABILITYSpotfire helps businesses monitor product quality, classify and characterize quality problems, and understand the impact of suppliers and manufacturing processes on quality. By mashing up data from sources as diverse as warranty, product test, process, maintenance, supplier, sales, call center, and even social media feeds, firms can reduce exposure to risk, get to root cause faster, and improve quality metrics.

MAINTENANCE AND RELIABILITYSpotfire is used by our customers to choose between reactive, preventive, and predictive maintenance strategies, build and deploy predictive maintenance models, and perform root cause analysis of fails. It allows you to bring together machine and product performance data, real-time or historical sensor data, maintenance cost data from your ERP, and environmental data such as weather conditions. Companies can now begin to truly understand assets and the causal relationships between the many factors that affect their performance and potential failures. Spotfire allows for the building of a model that is used to monitor real-time performance, predict when it will degrade, and trigger appropriate corrective action.

WARRANTY ANALYTICSSpotfire can be used as an early warning system to predict deviations from historical baseline claim rates before they start to occur. Root cause analysis is performed to understand sources of excessive claim rates. Spotfire then helps businesses model warranty claim data to better predict future cost and make optimal decisions regarding risk mitigation. Companies across a varied range of manufacturing types use Spotfire to manage warranty costs and keep reserves at optimal levels by visualizing cost profiles across multiple products, sub-assemblies, warranty terms, durations, and key suppliers. Warranty data will often come from call and repair centers, and Spotfire is also used to monitor and manage key customer service metrics.

MANUFACTURING OPERATIONSSpotfire is used by our customers to monitor and improve factory productivity and equipment utilization. It’s used to monitor overall equipment efficiency (OEE) at plant, production line, and equipment levels. This is a key lean metric that can aggregate the effects of equipment downtime, throughput, and scrap. Plant management, line supervisors, and operators are able to make the best real-time decisions to improve performance.
