Struggling to hit production targets and manage waste? This case study showcases a powerful Automotive Production Performance Dashboard built with Power BI and Inforiver Analytics+. It's the ultimate tool for plant managers and engineers to get real-time, actionable insights into plant efficiency, machine utilization, and operator performance—so you can boost output and cut costs, fast.   

What This Dashboard Helps You Solve:  

• Pinpoint Production Gaps: Quickly track output, defects, and performance gaps by month, plant, and shift to find the root causes of inefficiency.  

• Maximize OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness): Get a full picture of your OEE—including availability, performance, and quality trends—to optimize every machine and process.  

• Drill into Cycle Time & Downtime: Identify underperforming machines by comparing cycle times and analyzing downtime by shift and operator, so you can take targeted action.  

• Optimize Product-Level Performance: Review output, defects, costs, and cycle times for each individual product to pinpoint and seize opportunities for improvement.  

Data Visualizations Include: 

• Multi-Axis Chart: Visualize production quantity, planned output, and defect rates together. 

• Bullet Chart: Compare actual vs. planned production across shifts and plants. 

• Dot Plot: Show plant cycle time changes since last month. 

• Waterfall Chart: Highlight OEE trends month-over-month. 

• Tornado Chart: Assess production volumes and defect quantities by product. 

• Plus, numerous interactive visuals for deeper analysis.
