???? Small and medium manufacturing companies may be missing out on the full potential of manufacturing automation by undervaluing its ROI. Discover the benefits it offers, including labor augmentation, improved employee quality of life, and enhanced capacity here. ?? ?? Automation.com

Manufacturing Automation – the RFQ In Automation, the RFQ process goes simpler if you Tell the Solutions Provider the Price Upfront! -- “We’ve looked at automation for this process and it doesn’t meet our ROI!” "A Better Way! By calculating and specifying the ROI upfront for any particular operation or process that is targeted for automation, the entire wasteful sequence described above can be eliminated.?This ROI figure is the actual justified price of that automation and it can be dictated as part of the system specification upfront.?Any competitive suppliers interested and that can meet or beat that price along with a description of how that will be accomplished will yield a “menu” of options that can be used to proceed with the automation. For the end user / manufacturer, the real value of the automation is not the ROI, as that’s just a discounted cash flow figure of the tangible savings of labor, scrap, quality reworks etc. The real value is the “unknown and unknowable” intangible productivity benefits which flow from that automation and reach into workflows simplification, order to cash cycle time reduction, decreases in WIP and many other benefits which are only fully realized after the automation is deployed. What this means is that by taking the price “off the table” at the outset, the decision of which supplier, technology or design concept to proceed with is based on reasons other than price, which is an inefficient metric, and will include the merits of the automation solution itself contextualized to the overall automation strategy of the end user." "To summarize: Manufacturing automation is an economic investment aimed at increasing productivity, not an opportunity to “haggle” over price or play a game of “guess the ROI” for all concerned." -- In Automation, the RFQ process goes simpler if you Tell the Solutions Provider the Price Upfront! -- How do you generate the RFQ for your Automation?

?? Automation has the ability to transform traditional production processes, a great in-depth read from freescience about the technologies, challenges and benefits of implementing automation into businesses

Manufacturing Automation – the Need “Give us something simple to understand and maintain!” Was the REQUEST from an SME client recently as we reviewed their process for opportunities to decrease LABOR content through automation while being mindful of a previous FAILED attempt with an automation solution that was beyond the internal team’s abilities to understand and support … leading to ABANDONMENT and lost investment. Every manufacturing process has a CADENCE and a BALANCE, created over time and reflecting not only the EQUILIBRIUM reached with the available labor, materials and capital equipment used, but also reflecting the built in INEFFICIENCIES as functionality is seldom challenged by PERFORMANCE. These inefficiencies may be reflected of one or more of: Quality costs Order to Cash Cycle Time costs Capacity Limitations costs Material Waste costs Labor training costs Labor turnover costs Delivery delays costs Lost opportunities due to inability to deliver to customer demand costs Long setup times costs Inventory carrying Costs Work in Process (WIP) costs Like a series of gaps in windows that don’t quite close right, these ongoing costs may or may not be known and every process, no matter how well controlled, has these losses built into the process and offer opportunities to increase PRODUCTIVITY. The extent to which AUTOMATION has a part to play in capturing these benefits starts with: -??????A fresh Value Stream Mapping of the process, ? -??????Speaking with and observing the Operators, -??????Reviewing the quality and predictability of the Inputs, -??????Thinking BIG but acting SMALL. It’s likely that the outcome will be a Right Sized, Simple and Cost effective solution that will not be REJECTED by the process. “Give us something simple to understand and maintain!” -- “Manufacturing Automation – How Much Does it Cost? The short answer: Nothing! It's free, since you're already paying for it without benefiting from it!” -- Are your automation solutions simple to understand and maintain?

Chris Stergiou gives a great explanation of what companies tell the OEMs when looking for automation. When the end user is complaining about how bad the equipment is, I ask to see the specs given to the OEM. Most of the time, the equipment is built to those requirements and is being used differently. Maybe more questions should have been asked on both sides. Seen this in multiple industries across the country ??
