Move away from whiteboard operations and enable real-time sharing of production plans between locations.
At Kobe Kasei Co., Ltd., a food additive manufacturer, the sharing of production plans between locations and departments was insufficient, leading to communication errors such as "I didn't hear" or "I didn't know," frequent phone calls, and transcription mistakes. Previously, operations relied on whiteboards and phone calls, resulting in an inefficient system where every change required contacting all locations. The introduction of the production scheduler "Freely" enabled centralized management of plans on the web, achieving real-time information sharing. With a user interface that is intuitive like a whiteboard and high visibility through color coding, it was smoothly adopted on-site. As a result, the time for planning and sharing was significantly reduced, along with a decrease in phone calls and rewriting tasks. It has also contributed to the elimination of human errors and the realization of flexible working styles that are not location-dependent. This is a suitable case for manufacturing industries with multiple locations or those facing challenges in sharing and responding to changes in production plans. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.*
