Everett Charles Technologies is the leader in the development of advanced technology circuit board and semiconductor test products. What we produce.
4
Rushing to meeting demand. Scotty, we need more POWER!! New employees hired to “ramp-up” production Production teams created by pairing Experts with new employees for training purposes.
5
Results of ramp-up. Productivity reduced Quality of products were diluted Breakdown of communication between Engineering and Production Defects in production were difficult to track without “evidential matter”, signed checklists were insufficient Product only as good as the person or team who built it - “People dependent processes” Team A Team B Team A Team B
6
There must be a better way …
7
We need a system … Central repository for all process related information Productivity measurement Closed-loop process control Historical knowledge database Must be Paperless
8
We need a system … Train new hires and temps faster, the “right” way, without tying up the experts Communication tool for manufacturing floor Automate redundant or time consuming processes Better reaction to business cycles – “ramp”ability and “elastic capacity”

ProWorks is born.
10
ProWorks is a Client/Server Application. SQL Server Database (backend) (Multiple Users).NET Client Application
11
Feature Summary I. Document the Process II. Deploy the Process III. Execute the Process IV. Analyze the Process ProWorks Core Components:
12
Document the Process – splash I. Document the Process II. Deploy the Process III. Execute the Process IV. Analyze the Process
13
Document the Process – say what you do Allow content to be created and maintained by Process Experts, not IT or Engineering Use pictures, video, etc. to describe the Process Link to existing Process documentation and databases Support Files Process Tree Instruction Text
14
Document the Process – say what you do Built-in Process revision control Multiple language support Security – watermarking and encryption
15
Deploy the Process – splash I. Document the Process II. Deploy the Process III. Execute the Process IV. Analyze the Process
16
Deploy the Process – share what you say Push-button rollout of Process Standardized training tool for new hires, temps, and cross-training of “best practices” ProWorks Database (Best Practices)
17
Deploy the Process – share what you say Replicate processes across different regions Import/Export for process portability for standalone use or to send process to other facilities Let’s try this in China. Yeah, I see what you see!!! Hey, can you see my changes??? CaliforniaNew York
18
Execute the Process – splash I. Document the Process II. Deploy the Process III. Execute the Process IV. Analyze the Process
19
Execute the Process – do what you say “Pass/Fail” status on each step Elapsed time recorded to identify bottlenecks
20
Execute the Process – do what you say Email notification on critical events within the Process Troubleshooting database to provide “step-specific” problem solving tips based on previous failures Symptoms Corrective Actions
21
Execute the Process – do what you say AutoCommands to enable ProWorks to interact with external applications Share data with other ODBC compliant databases ProWorks Database ERP CRM
22
Execute the Process – do what you say “View Summary” graphically displays the current status of each Process as it’s executed
23
Analyze the Process – splash I. Document the Process II. Deploy the Process III. Execute the Process IV. Analyze the Process
24
Analyze the Process – improve what you do. Punchlist provides a snapshot of process variables and events
25
Analyze the Process – improve what you do. Crystal Report Wizard for quick and easy report generation
26
Analyze the Process – improve what you do. SQL Server backend allows easy access to data for mining and 3 rd party reporting tools CAR/PAR support for ISO compliance
27
Current Applications. Product assembly, bring-up, and buy-off Product installation, maintenance, and calibration Online Help with integrated machine control Accounting conformance and Sarbox audit Design engineering Any repetitive business processes – Hiring, Month-end close, Quote generation…
28
Case Study - Multitest In 2006, Multitest was able to ramp production of their “MT 9928 Gravity Handler” from 2 machines/week to 8 machines/week with the aid of ProWorks Multitest was able to do so adding 7 full time staff Multitest has reached Level 3 integration of ProWorks Multitest subcontractors also use ProWorks
