Description

This project aims to address the flaws in communication in JIT batch manufacturing facilities by creating an application in which team members can interact with the system from their perspective. The application allows users to record information from their tasks and receive useful analytics and notifications to allow them to make informed decisions moving forward.

Abstract

JIT batch manufacturing is a very complicated process at the deepest level. In practice, not everyone involved understands everything that is being done by the other teams involved, and as a result they can impose situations on eachother that are unreasonable without realizing it. Based on disucssion with our domain expert, Michael J. Kempe, we have designed an application that would provide a new interface for workers to interact with the facility's key informtation such that it only expects them to interact with it from their perspective, and give them results back directly relevant to their area of expertise, thus ensuring they can meaningfully act on it.
