PEMIT (Production Efficiency Monitoring and Improvement Tool); The efficiency lost during the manufacturing process takes away a remarkable portion of your profit in our highly competitive global market. It is not possible to immediately intervene and correct the cause of efficiency decrease if data acquisition is made manually by the employees on the shop floor since the resulting report will reach in your hands at least one day after valuable time and money have already been lost.more

Receiving purchase orders and succeeding to turn them into
continuous orders, is the biggest problem of all manufacturing
companies in today’s highly competitive business environment.
In order to receive continuous purchase orders, companies
should:
Make right
pricing,
Deliver
the goods on time and with good quality,
Prove that
they are reliable,
Persuade
their customers that their reliability will be continuous,
Be available
at all times for random audits
of both the customer and the quality assurance
companies
It
may be considered that the overhead costs do not affect the
end price much. The basic factors that affect the end price
are direct costs.
Direct Costs are
Like fixed costs such as material and transportation, there
are also some interactive costs within the above mentioned
direct costs. For instance when maintenance costs decrease,
wastage, direct and indirect workmanship, energy cost , amortization
and breakdowns will increase which will also lead to an increase
in unplanned down times and its costs.
When the proper importance is given to maintenance activities,
almost all costs that affect the end product cost will decrease
and the reliability, competitiveness and finally profit
of the company will increase.
In
“Direct Costs + Overheads+ Profit
= Price” equation, other than top management policies
which will decide overheads and profit margins, the only activity,
is MAINTENANCE,
that increase your competitiveness and reliability, thus help
to turn your purchase orders into continuous ones.
Receiving purchase orders and succeeding to turn them into continuous
orders, is the biggest problem of all manufacturing companies in
today’s highly competitive business environment.

Periodic & Protective Maintenance :
Is the type of maintenance which is done in certain periods on unrunning
equipment using methods that are pre-defined by the manufacturer
of that equipment.
Predictive Maintenance:
Is the type of maintenance that is done while the machine is running,
with special instruments (such as vibrometres , thermal cameras,
etc.), in order to analyse the condition of the particular machine.
By the help of predictive maintenance it is possible to predict
the break-downs and unplanned down-times before they occur.
CMMS (Computerized Maintenance Management System):
CMMS is considered as the base of ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning)
and SAM (Strategic Asset Management) programs, which are vital for
all giant firms and manufacturing companies at present. CMMS was
initially used by US Navy and after early 80’s it is adopted by
all important manufacturing companies of industrialized countries.
