How do you track production and work orders in real time on the shop floor?
The short answer
To track production in real time: digitize work orders at the station, capture counts, status and downtime automatically from operators or machines, and surface it on live dashboards. The goal is to see WIP, output and issues as they happen — not reconcile spreadsheets after the shift.
How it works
- Digitize the work order. Operators run the job from a tablet or station screen.
- Capture data automatically. Counts, status and downtime logged as work happens.
- Surface live dashboards. Supervisors see WIP, output and bottlenecks in real time.
- Escalate issues. Andon and alerts fire the moment something stalls.
Why it beats after-the-fact reporting
End-of-shift spreadsheets tell you what already went wrong. Real-time tracking lets you act during the shift — recovering output and hitting promise dates instead of explaining misses.
