CASE STUDY
Reducing Production Downtime in Global Manufacturing
BACKGROUND
A leading global consumer goods company operates a vast network of manufacturing plants worldwide, producing essential products that touch the lives of billions daily. With a presence in over 190 countries and a diverse portfolio of brands, the company is committed to delivering high-quality goods while driving sustainable growth.
Maintaining operational efficiency across production lines is critical to ensuring product quality and meeting consumer demand. As the company expands its global footprint, leveraging advanced technologies to enhance manufacturing processes becomes increasingly vital.
CHALLENGE
Even with established processes, unexpected machine stoppages can significantly impact production—reducing output, delaying deliveries, and affecting overall efficiency.
Traditionally, identifying the root cause of these stoppages relied on manual investigation, which involved analysing logs, inspecting machinery, and piecing together clues. While this approach was effective in many cases, it could be slow and sometimes inconclusive, leaving room for improvement.
To overcome these limitations, the company required a solution that could quickly detect stoppages, provide a clear view of what occurred, and scale across various factory setups worldwide.
SOLUTION
To address this, Nexer Insight partnered with the company to create a more efficient approach for monitoring production and responding to stoppages. The solution combines real-time machine monitoring, automated video capture, and cloud technology into a single, scalable system.
Here’s how it works:
By integrating data and video in this way, the system provides a clear, real-time view of production events while remaining efficient, scalable, and easy to deploy in new factories.
IMPACT
The solution has transformed production line management:
A step forward in digital manufacturing
By combining real-time monitoring, video, and cloud technology, the company strengthens its ability to make data-driven decisions across its production network.
Processes are now proactive and visual — every stoppage is an opportunity to improve efficiency, maintain consistent quality, and scale operations globally with minimal disruption.
