Save time and money.
By using a database to collect downtime and printing standardized
reports, the whole organization saves time and money. Production supervisors do not
have to spend time generating reports and manually searching old reports to answer
questions about machine performance. Production managers do not have to call
supervisors to find out what happened the day before; all the information is
available through the Internet.
