    OEE that leads to real
    production improvements

    SEEMS’s aRTi-DTM OEE application shows how efficiently machines are operating—in real time and based on historical data—helping to identify delays, losses, and areas for improvement.

    // 01 — The problem

    Why OEE Often Doesn’t Lead to Improvement

    In most industries, OEE is measured—but often that’s as far as it goes.
    In many cases, it’s based on unreliable data, or even when the data is accurate, it doesn’t guide subsequent actions.

     
    11%
    of time is lost due to unplanned downtime – in the world’s 500 largest industrial companies (Siemens, 2024).
     
    800h
    of downtime per year is the average for every industry sector, more than 15 hours per week of lost production (Aberdeen Research).
     
    2/3
    of industries experience at least one unexpected downtime event every month—at an average cost of $125,000 per hour(ABB, 2024).
    × Which losses have a real impact on production
    ×Where to start making improvements
    × Whether interventions pay off over time
    Result: improvements without prioritization and decisions based on assumptions.

    // 02 — The Approach

    What makes SEEMS' OEE different?

    It goes beyond mere measurement. It combines reliable data, analysis, and recommendations to turn OEE into a tool for continuous improvement.

    ▮▮▮

    01

    Reliable data

    Right setup, right insights.

    Connection to a PLC and proper production mapping for data that reflects actual operations.

    02

    Real-time analysis

    Not metrics, but causes

    Downtime, losses, speeds, and quality by shift, machine, operator, and line—complete operational transparency.

    03

    AI-powered recommendations 

    Clear next steps

    Trend analysis and alerts based on historical and real-time data.

    // 04 – Results

    What You Gain in Practice

    In typical applications, SEEMS helps achieve:
     
    +5–20%
    OEE Improvement
    Targeted interventions based on actual losses, not estimates
     
    -5–10%
    Unscheduled stops
    A better understanding of the factors that affect performance
     
    -20%
    Reporting Time
    Automated data collection and consolidated reports
    → OEE evolves from a monitoring KPI into a tool for evidence-based action and continuous improvement.
    // 05 – Flexibility

    For every type of production

    It supports both batch and continuous production, tailoring the analysis and recommendations to the logic of each process.
    DISCRETE
    Discrete production
    Analysis by batch, order, and product—with a comparison of planned versus actual output.
    CONTINUOUS

    Continuous production

    Real-time monitoring of flow, speed, and quality deviations.
    // 06 – Unified platform

    OEE as part of a unified platform

    The OEE application does not operate in isolation. It integrates seamlessly with the other modules, providing deeper insights and more meaningful recommendations.
    OEE — Central Analytics Hub

    CONNECTED TO

    Production Orders

    Comparison of planned and actual performance per order.

    Quality Control

    Correlation between quality losses and production processes and conditions.

    Predictive maintenance

    Understanding the role of equipment and failures in performance.

    Energy & Environment

    Interconnectivity between performance, energy consumption, and operating conditions.
    As a result, OEE evolves from a standalone metric into a central focus of production analysis—drawing on data and correlations from across the entire platform.
