It certainly makes sense, particularly as manufacturing businesses search for more precise ways to empower their continuous improvement efforts. Understanding in fine detail how you're doing in terms of quality, availability, and performance doesn't just show off which of your efforts are working - it singles out which ones could use a bit of work, too. Of course, all of this demands the question - is OEE software about to reach its saturation point in the manufacturing sector, or have we only just hit the tip of the proverbial iceberg in terms of what it can do and what it allows organizations to accomplish?

The goal is to collect as much data as you can i...
