IN TODAY'S COMPETITIVE MARKETPLACE, GETTING ACCURATE INFORMATION AND GETTING IT AS FAST AS POSSIBLE ALLOWS DECISIONS TO BE MADE WHICH BEFORE TOOK MUCH LONGER, OR WERE MADE ON PURE SPECULATION. WITH DECISIONS BEING MADE FASTER AND FASTER, ADDING AN INCREASED LEVEL OF CONFIDENCE TO THE DECISION AND SUPPLYING PREVIOUSLY UNKNOWN INFORMATION FROM THE PROCESSING FLOOR, ALLOWS AN ORGANIZATION TO REACT BETTER TO THE CONTINUALLY CHANGING ENVIRONMENT. HAVING PROCESS ANALYSIS INFORMATION AND DOWNTIME REASON INFORMATION IS JUST A START. HAVING THIS INFORMATION AT YOUR FINGERTIPS WHEN YOU DESIRE IT CUTS THE AMOUNT OF TIME THAT A PARTICULAR CONDITION MAY HAVE EXISTED. ADDING IN THE UNKNOWN INFORMATION FROM WHAT IS ACTUALLY HAPPENING ON THE FLOOR REINFORCES THAT PROCESSING AND DOWNTIME INFORMATION, AND PROVIDES AN ADVANCED WARNING THAT COULD HELP PREVENT THESE PROBLEMS IN THE FIRST PLACE.
