Standards and Process Steps in Job Tracking Software

In the majority of manufacturing situations where Job Tracking Software would be a useful addition to the management tools being used, it’s almost impossible to use a “canned” or off-the-shelf software package. Each manufacturing facility within an industry, and the very culture within that particular facility, will certainly be unique. Even among facilities within a certain corporation, no two facilities will be operated the same, and the people operating each plant will have their own regional differences as well. For these reasons, custom-tailored Job Tracking Software for these facilities will likely need to be modified from one facility to another.

Something to consider is this: Even when an individual relocates from one manufacturing plant to another within a given corporation, there’s a learning curve that individual needs to climb once they start work at the new facility. So, when the time comes to have Job Tracking Software (or any kind of software for that matter) developed for a facility, the learning curve for the software developers will be considerably higher and steeper than a relocating individual will need to climb.

There are some key pieces of information the Job Tracking Software developers will need to have when developing for your facility. The process steps necessary to manufacture a given finished project are one of these lists of information. But sometimes the details of this list are lacking. Process steps do need to include rest and cooling times for heating or pressing operations. They also need to include quality inspections and other administrative functions.

It should also be deeper than that when defining production standards. A mill operator on a particular machine may be able to cut a certain material a given thickness in a certain number of centimeters per second. But at thinner thicknesses of material, the same operator might be able to cut three or four pieces at a time, which multiplies the cut rate by the number of pieces. As the developer of the Job Tracking Software doesn’t know this information, it’s important to get into these details with him or her as deeply as possible.

It’s important to remember your Job Tracking Software developer is on the outside looking into your facility and what you do. In order to ensure the best software is delivered, the information the developer has, has to be as complete as it can possibly be.
