Real-Time Production Tracking: Who Records the Event, and What It Costs Them
You take one sweatshirt order and one line fitted with terminals. You see why the unit an event is recorded in can never be changed afterwards, and why capture is only expensive at the station that sets the speed. You find where the delay between an event and a decision really sits. You see why a factory that re-plans once a shift gains nothing from minute-level data. And what to do when tracking and payroll disagree.

Course value
What will you be able to do?
Work outcome
You can say what a real-time feed would change about a decision you make today, price the instrumentation honestly, and refuse the dashboard that reports a number nobody acts on.
Who it is for
Factory and supplier teams.
What you will produce
You build a method for specifying production capture before anybody quotes for it. You write a unit-of-record decision from the questions you really ask. You price capture at the constraint rather than at the wage rate. You break down your own decision delay. You find the ceiling your re-planning frequency puts on any feed. And you write a four-blank test that refuses an unjustified purchase.
