How do I get started?

Click Get started, then use Proto to configure Manufacturing Analytics for your business. Pilot one production unit, a short date window, a reviewed measurement definition and a sample capture that the analyst and reviewer can reconcile together.

What is the main working record?

A dated production snapshot carries the owner, definition, observed time and unit measures, lifecycle status and revision. Linked machine facts, runs and decisions explain how that source was handled.

Can we inspect individual observations?

Yes. Machine run facts retain their sequence, observed date, quantity, source reference and outcome with a link to the parent production snapshot.

How is efficiency computed?

The analyst invokes the computation for a source revision in the Production Snapshots Workspace. The operation run and numbered steps show the attempt. A successful outcome follows a read-back of the persisted source fields. Period and dimension results can be reviewed through their linked metric result records.

Who decides whether a result is accepted?

A named reviewer records a decision against the exact source revision, with a reason and evidence reference. The operations manager checks that decision before using the reviewed source.

Can we compare results across locations?

Organizations and effective production resource definitions give each source its context. Agree the metric grain, units and aggregation method before comparing results from different locations.

What happens when a source capture is stale?

The source snapshot records its freshness state, capture time and coverage window. The analyst investigates the capture before using linked observations in a production review.

How are exceptions followed up?

A manager assigns a due-dated action to a person. The assignee records progress, completion and resolution against the production source.

Can existing production systems feed the app?

Yes, as a configured connection. Agree source IDs, field mappings, capture windows and reconciliation samples with the team that owns each upstream system.

What drives the cost?

Manual use follows the platform’s published policy. Imports, integrations, agent execution and other machine work use credits; implementation is scoped separately. See pricing.
