Work in progress tracking, otherwise known as WIP tracking, systems allow you to monitor the progress of your goods as they pass through the various stages of production. As the product passes from one stage to the next a work in progress tracking system logs the transition and relays it to a central database. This WIP tracking database can track every item on your production line at once, giving managers and supervisors real time information on the location, status and rate of progress of everything you manufacture. WIP tracking systems can also log additional data such as who has worked/is working on the item and what problems/defects (if any) were encountered.
Work in progress tracking allows a 360 degree picture of the shop floor to be provided in real time, whether the supervisors are on site or at a remote location nearby. The kind of comprehensive overview available with WIP tracking solutions not only provides a more accurate measure of plant and worker efficiency, but also allows stock levels of raw materials and delivery schedules to be maintained more efficiently.
