Accurate and real-time management of your critical manufacturing components is vital to your business. Without it, you could experience one of the worst things to happen to your operations – unplanned downtime.
When production unexpectedly stops, your lost revenue is 15x more than a scheduled downtime. And considering that asset maintenance can run as high as $3 million per incident, your unplanned downtime could decimate your profit margin depending on your industry.
For example, the average automotive manufacturer loses $22K every minute the production line is stalled. That’s $1.32 million per hour because someone misplaced the new shipment of lug nuts.
And if you think your assembly line is a well-oiled machine and this sort of thing could never happen to you, it’s time to think again. Reports show that 82% of companies have experienced unplanned downtime in the last three years, with an average of 4 hours per outage and an average loss of $2 million per incident.
Unexpected downtime also has a significant impact on your customers. When experiencing an unplanned production break, productive capacity falls by 5-20%. That means deliveries are delayed and customers aren’t getting their inventory.
Worse yet, repeated downtime tells your customers that your company is an unreliable resource that doesn’t have the ability to consistently deliver your products or meet their needs.
The bottom line is you don’t have time for downtime.
To ensure you’re doing everything possible to reduce your unplanned downtime, you need a reliable solution to identify, track, count and manage your inventory.
