Data-Driven System to Analyze Potential Constraints on Manufacturing Cycle Time

Abstract | This paper provides a detailed exploration of five common bottlenecks in manufacturing: machine downtime, material availability, workforce problems, production control variability, and inadequate layout and workflow. Reducing manufacturing cycle time is a strategic goal that can help companies achieve efficiency and become more reliable, less costly, and satisfy their customers’ demands. However, production process congestion or delay points—bottlenecks—present a significant problem to smooth operations. The paper explores each bottleneck's description, root causes, and corresponding data analysis solutions. The report established that analyzing such vital technologies as predictive maintenance, real-time inventory management, human capital management, statistical process control, and simulation modeling demonstrates how some business limitations can be managed by using data-driven techniques. Manufacturers should, therefore, ensure that they diagnose manufacturing cycle times early enough to avoid bottlenecks. The paper further highlighted that early detection and addressing of the bottlenecks increase the cycle times, support maximum productivity, and enable firms to compete effectively. The report acknowledges that using data analytics to redesign efficient and robust manufacturing systems is critical in minimizing manufacturing cycle times. |
