Apparel Manufacturing Productivity & Efficiency
BlueCherry Shop Floor Control measurably boosts productivity and efficiency across the entire operation. Workers and supervisors use BlueCherry Shop Floor Control smart devices to manage off-standard events such as machine downtime. Focusing attention on minimizing these non-value-added activities optimizes individual and overall productivity.
Timeclocks are efficiently replaced with a simple scanning of an ID tag at the BlueCherry smart device. Production workers also use these tablets to view their real-time performance against established production targets. Pacing tools in the system help workers quickly reach these targets. Displaying construction details and instructional videos on smart devices also help improve quality. Big-screen displays can be located throughout the production floor to present productivity, quality and other vital information. Connected and informed workers better understand their value in the workplace. This results in increased motivation and teamwork as well as reduced absenteeism.

Reduce & Control Manufacturing Costs
Supervisors and managers rely on BlueCherry Shop Floor Control to identify and resolve production bottlenecks. The system presents options for fixing production delays. Proactive line balancing tools help managers anticipate potential imbalances. Managers can then choose the best actions to prevent backups before disrupting production flow. It also identifies workers who have the skills needed to boost the production of a specific task.
Significantly reducing worker and administrative time and expenses, BlueCherry Shop Floor Control eliminates requirements for time clocks, paper tickets, gum sheets and the manual recording and processing of production and gross payroll information. BlueCherry SFC Enterprise includes a comprehensive source-to-gross payroll solution that automatically collects data as workers scan barcodes or RFID tags for each of their activities. This greatly reduces time and errors in calculating incentive payroll.
