Work In Progress Software (WIP)
Why an Organization Needs a Work-in-Progress Management Software?
WIP tracking refers to the tracking of the work-in-progress the production process. This system supports management to identify the bottlenecks of the production lines using real-time production data.
Managers are able to make strategic decisions to improve the efficiency of the production flow by automating traceability, eliminating paperwork, and allowing targeted recalls whenever necessary.
About Afisol Work-in-Progress Management Software (WIP)
Afisol Working Progress System (WIP) support organizations to track the working progress of the production process. System provides facility to schedule the production orders and set up the Bill of Material (BOM) before starting the production. Using buddle pack label with the barcode, system will monitor the stage wise and order wise working progress and record the time consumption of each stage. Maintain records of the production counts helps organizations to monitor the individual performance and improve efficiency of the production lines. Further managers are able to track the quality rejects and monitor the wastage. Managers are able to overlook the working progress via dashboards and generate management reports. If required, organizations are able to link this system with Afisol Production Management System to produce the product labels, box labels and manage the production inventories as well.

Benefits of Work-in-Progress Management system
WIP system provides the quality controlling functionality and send real-time data to both management and the line workers. Automated record-keeping removes the risk of human error that comes with a manual process. Supervisors get information of any quality rejects immediately to take actions for adjustments. This facility ensure the high quality of the production output.
WIP Management System provides real time dashboards of the ongoing production overview. Employees and managers are able to compare Actual Target against the Daily Target through online dashboards and work together to achieve their KPIs and work on continuous improvements.
Some organizations are lacking with information to understand how long it takes for their products to travel through the production line. Those information are important to setup production goals to improve the production. Work in progress system continuously tracking the information of each production line and keep accurate records. Having clear overview of how long products are staying at each stage of the manufacturing process highly important to spot bottlenecks, identify the cause and respond accordingly.
Real time production data and continuous monitoring ensures the production line optimization while reducing the quality failures. By knowing the theoretical capacity of each resource including each machine and employee, supervisors are able to estimate the amount of time necessary to make each product and managers can team give objectives to each production team. Managers are able to analyze the production data and do the crucial adjustments to maintain a productive and timely delivered production line.
