Industrial Smart Operations Management Systems

Industrial Smart Operations Management (ISOM) systems are third-generation systems that automate operational decision-making, coordinate process flow, and eliminate “intelligent grunt work” in manufacturing, distribution, and other industrial organizations. These ISOM systems are based on real-time artificial intelligence methods, originally developed for the US Department of Defense, and have been successfully deployed in hundreds of applications in manufacturing, distribution and other industrial applications over the past decade.

ISOM systems:

• Increase sales by enabling lower prices and faster delivery than competitors
• Drive repeat business by ensuring accurate, on-time, defect-free shipments
• Reduce overhead costs by automating routine operational coordination and support tasks
• Ensure regulatory compliance through automated data capture, traceability, and reporting
• Prevent costly errors by alerting managers before critical mistakes occur

ISOM systems are especially applicable to smaller and mid-size (SME) industrial enterprises which do not have large centralized support organizations. ISOM systems enable these smaller organizations to run their operations efficiently with a small overhead staff. Typically smaller enterprises today deploy stand-alone ISOM systems to replace the use of paper forms and Excel-based processes, while mid-sized enterprises use them to augment and extend the capabilities of their ERP systems.
