Ubisense monitors the flow of kits and subassemblies through the plant and detects deviations from plan, creating a real-time view of status and alerts.

Operations teams can now proactively maintain JIT and JIS flow from origin to point-of-use with the aid of real-time guidance and automatic verification.

PROBLEM

• Wasted time searching for kits and subassemblies
• Late delivery of kits and subassemblies
• Out-of-sequence deliveries
• Deliveries to wrong point-of-use
• Assignment to the wrong product
• Inability to adapt and re-plan against errors in real-world delivery status

SOLUTION

• Real-time location of kits and subassemblies
• Aligning kit and subassembly movements with logistics plans
• Detecting and alerting on out-of-sequence deliveries
• Real-time detection of delays in JIT and JIS deliveries
