Data is the new driver of manufacturing progress. Companies that can turn their data into actionable information are pulling ahead. As needs and capabilities evolve, information software has become the core driver of growth.
Werner Electric is expanding its offerings to meet that demand, bringing clients a growing portfolio of information software solutions built to power the future. Tools that provide real-time data and seamless scalability are more than just add-ons; they are crucial in supporting today’s business needs by enabling faster decisions, reducing downtime and streamlining workflows.
Data-driven advantage
Tom Wroblewski, general manager of information software at Werner Electric, states, “The decision-making process has become more efficient and effective due to data. Data is at the core of everything we do with these solutions.”
Werner Electric’s software solutions are helping businesses:
• Improve decision-making by using real-time, contextualized data analytics pulled from a single source of truth
• Prioritize workforce allocation and spare parts inventory levels based on predictive insights, ensuring labor and parts are available where and when needed most
• Reduce waste and inefficiencies in production by using advanced data analysis to drive lean operations
• Scale operations with minimal IT impact through cloud-based deployment
Modern platforms for competitive edge
As a long-time partner of Rockwell Automation, Werner Electric’s knowledge, experience and expertise provide a streamlined process for businesses looking to improve operations with information software solutions.
Werner Electric currently offers three key solutions: Fiix, PLEX and FactoryTalk Analytics.
• Fiix is a cloud-based, AI-powered computerized maintenance management system (CMMS). Used by more than 3,000 global customers, Fiix can manage work orders, schedule preventative maintenance, maintain parts inventory, manage assets, analyze equipment performance and ensure maintenance teams can respond in real time.
• PLEX is a cloud-based smart manufacturing platform that delivers real-time insights to support better decision-making. With more than 2,000 global installations, it helps customers drive continuous improvement, enhance quality, optimize production schedules and maximize productivity.
• FactoryTalk Analytics is a comprehensive analytics platform designed specifically for industrial manufacturing. Its features provide clearer visibility into plant equipment performance, resulting in improved overall equipment effectiveness (OEE), less unplanned downtime and increased quality.
Fast to deploy, built to scale
A key advantage of each solution is fast deployment, with some organizations fully operational within six weeks. One example includes a local manufacturing company that transitioned from a 21-year-old legacy CMMS to Fiix. Within two months, the company expanded its usage, demonstrating Fiix’s effectiveness and scalability.
Wroblewski emphasizes, “A big part of transitioning into a modern system like Fiix is the migration of the legacy info including work orders, inventory on file and data from components attached to machines. Capturing those very important investments that have been made over the decades and moving all that to the new database is essential. We provide tremendous support to help make it fast and seamless.”
Collaborative solutions for long-term success
With 76 years of industrial and manufacturing expertise, Werner Electric is poised to offer information software solutions to solve problems and improve operations. Businesses can schedule a complimentary four-hour workshop led by experienced industry consultants and software specialists to develop a tailored solution.
By integrating information software solutions and utilizing the power of data, industrial and manufacturing companies can maximize productivity, increase quality, reduce downtime and achieve higher profitability.
