WHO ARE THE USERS?
The app is useful to all those who want to reduce the changeover times trough SMED method. Therefore, it is for professionals and trainees in Operational Excellence and Continuous Improvement like: internal and external consultants, confirmed Green and Black Belts, students and trainees.



WHAT PROBLEM SOLVED?
Have you ever thought how much lost time until you are ready to find solutions to reduce a changeover time through SMED!
You must record videos for often several changeovers, to download them into PC, breakdown in small pieces and copy into Excel file, get tables and diagrams one by one, summarize and make reports under Word and Power Point. Lot of errors, delays and back and forth occur during a such a heavy process.
And when 2or more Operators are working in parallel on several machines is often impossible to keep them together in the camera eye.
Happy you found solutions to improve C/O duration, you have now to start again the process in order to validate the gain!


WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?
In a sentence, you will spend much less time for the preparation for SMED application,
The problem of measuring the operations of several Operators and Machines working in parallel is solved as the application provides multiple timers running in the same time
No more need to breakdown and copy in the Excel file as you have done it much faster into the application before starting the measurement
Very quick time measurement of operations and steps of the changeover by pushing one button
No more building the diagrams and tables, a set of standard ones is available already at the end of the measurement. Just push a button and you export them by mail as a report under PDF and together with CSV format data
The process is half shorter after improvement, as you can use a copy of an existing record for the following ones.
You take benefit of the mobility and so follow closely the full process because the smartphone is easy to use in different places and situations.
Get rid of bloc notes, paper and pencil, because you take notes / audio and pictures directly with smartphone and during the measurement.


YOU WILL BE ABBLE TO
Measure the duration of a changeover
Measure the durations of operations for every operator
Getting the duration and % of internal and external operations
Split automatically the duration of the changeover following your criteria: operator, machine, category of activities
Measure the duration of the components of a changeover how you want to define them
Estimate directly the potential of improvement
