Solve Today’s Toughest Manufacturing Challenges with Leadtec™ Shop Floor Control from CGS

Leadtec Basic - Batch Shop Floor Control and Piecework Payroll

Leadtec Basic delivers comprehensive shop floor statistics in “near real-time” by batching transactions for periodic updates. Instead of scanning information at real-time terminals, Leadtec Basic operators clip and attach bar-coded coupons from each bundle to work sheets that are submitted on a defined schedule for scanning by office support. Leadtec Basic provides a number of significant advantages over typical batch shop floor solutions, including:

  • Hourly time clocks for automatic time and attendance reporting
  • Ability to add real-time terminals for direct labor by section or plant
  • Can perform multiple data entry sessions per day
  • Production reporting by line/job and job group
  • Work-in-process workload available at each job
  • Bundle operation history includes multiple responsible operators
  • Alternate jobs for automatic or manual machine piece-rates
  • Extensive substitute (alternate rate) operation levels
  • Actual costs by cut, style and order (reduced functionality vs. real-time)
  • Extensive support for training curves
  • Duplicate bundle payments identified on-line as data is entered
  • Cut production status reporting
  • Cut completion graphing
  • Production monitoring - actual vs. required
  • Online supervisor inquiries (reduced functionality vs. real-time)
  • Section status inquiry (reduced functionality vs. real-time)

Of course, Leadtec Basic is readily upgradable to Leadtec Standard or Professional simply by adding operator terminals to areas of your factory that can best benefit from real-time processing. In fact, Leadtec seamlessly supports operations that use a combined batch/real-time configuration.
