Building Block Approach
Optimation’s approach to helping clients drive production improvement is both ‘bottom-up’ and ‘top-down’. We develop scalable, ‘building block’ solutions tailored to meet specific client requirements using a minimum of custom code. We establish a solid foundation and add blocks over time to complete enterprise-wide systems that deliver high return on investment based on lowest project lifecycle costs and total cost of ownership.
Legacy Systems Integration
Optimation’s systems connect and operate from the plant floor at the sensor level up through the ERP system, tying everything together into an integrated whole. A key to success is our ability to interface to and integrate with legacy systems throughout the enterprise, protecting and leveraging the client’s long-term investments to deliver accurate, real-time manufacturing information and control to the people who need it, when they need it, to optimize business results.
Cost Effective Solutions
This modular platform development is far more cost effective and adaptive to existing client processes and operational requirements than big, expensive ‘top-down’ packaged solutions, enabling Optimation and our partners to build flexible, plant-wide systems over time employing a less costly and more manageable incremental approach, executed in project phases, that clients can readily afford and justify.
Step by Step Methodology
Optimation believes in proving things out as we go and providing justification for taking the next step, to manage costs and other considerations such as ensuring that the system can be validated. This approach keeps both Optimation and our clients on solid ground throughout the project lifecycle to ensure successful project delivery and results. Optimation employs a proven project execution methodology that follows GAMP-4. Quality standards and procedures are integrated into everything we do as a routinely audited Life Sciences service provider.
Turnkey MES Systems
Optimation can take full responsibility for turnkey system delivery from concept through installation and support:
- Consulting, project and system definition / specifications based on business drivers, expected ROI and user requirements
- Facilitation of solid buy-in from all stakeholders including engineering / IT, operations and management
- Cross-functional MES team leadership and project management
- Design and development of interfaces, integration with ERP and legacy systems
- Architecting, implementation and testing of standardized, modular platform solutions
- System installation and configuration
- Training and support
Business Results -- Not Technology -- Measure Success
Optimation understands that technology has to deliver tangible business results to be of any value. An elegant technical solution that does not fully satisfy business needs and produce a substantial financial return can do more harm than good in terms of lost time, cost of ownership, and lost opportunities / customers.
Business Drivers
In today’s environment of chronic pressure to reduce costs, boost output, improve quality and consistency, increase utilization and productivity, reduce inventory, scrap and rework, and provide everyone in the organization with the information they need to make the business perform, companies must develop collaborative partnerships with competent, experienced people they can trust to take on challenging manufacturing problems together and develop system solutions that deliver to the critical needs of the business.
Process
Optimation has the broad-based, in-depth experience and know-how to help guide your team through the mire, identifying specific business drivers, problems, needs and requirements used to determine technology selection and system specifications, for successful on-target system implementation and delivery of needed business results. |
