OEE Hub helps manufacturers

OEE Hub helps manufacturers identify, measure, and eliminate losses from downtime, bottlenecks, and quality issues. Preconfigured and tested in real environments, the hub delivers actionable insights into availability, performance, and quality. Manufacturers using OEE Hub improve OEE, boost throughput, reduce costs, and hit delivery targets more consistently.

While OEE Hub provides a comprehensive set of ready-to-use components, it is not a standalone, out-of-the-box product. Instead, it offers configurable building blocks that are embedded into a client’s DELMIA Apriso environment as part of an implementation project. This approach accelerates delivery, standardizes deployment across sites, and reduces overall project effort, while still requiring alignment with each client’s master data, processes, and operational requirements.
