Your ERP knows what was produced. It just can't tell you today.
ArcCrest sits alongside the ERP and MES you already run and turns the daily production picture into something current.
Someone rebuilds production, scrap, and OEE numbers from the floor by hand.
The shift ends and the numbers start moving by hand. Someone pulls a shift report, types it into a spreadsheet, and reconciles it against what the ERP thinks was produced. Scrap gets counted twice because two people track it differently. By the time the daily number is trustworthy enough to act on, it describes yesterday, and the line that was drifting has been drifting for a day.
What we work alongside
We read from whichever of these you run. The system of record stays exactly where it is, and we never write back to it.
- your ERP
- your MES or shop-floor system
- the quality system
- a homegrown production tracker
- the spreadsheets around them
What a first pilot looks like here
One workflow, chosen with you during scoping. In this vertical it is usually one of these:
- daily production and equipment-effectiveness reporting
- scrap and rework tracking across lines
- downtime coding and reason-code rollup
- shift handover reporting
What you get instead
- production against plan, by line and by shift
- scrap and rework where it happens, not at month-end
- overall equipment effectiveness without the rebuild
- downtime reasons ranked by cost
And then the tools nobody sells off the shelf
Once that record exists, what gets built is specific to your operation, and it's the part your team opens every day. In this vertical it usually looks like:
- a shift handover screen that's already filled in when the next crew walks in
- a downtime coding tool that stops reason codes drifting between lines
- a scrap entry tool the floor actually uses, because it takes ten seconds
What we don't do here
We don't touch machine control, and we don't replace your MES's data collection. We read what it already records.
