FactoryTalk VantagePoint EMI business intelligence software for manufacturing provides information in web-based dashboards and reports on key performance indicators from multiple manufacturing and business data sources to allow manufacturers to better monitor and manage productivity in real time. The software also allows them to make more insightful decisions about business priorities such as product quality, equipment utilisation and supply-chain management.

The software connects to multiple data sources - real-time, historical, relational and transactional - to create a single resource that can access, aggregate and correlate information via a web browser. The application is based on a unified production model (UPM) that provides a unified view of seemingly disparate manufacturing data and gives a context for relationships among equipment, product, materials and people. The UPM organises various manufacturing and enterprise data using commonly referenced business terms, like ‘equipment’, ‘batches’ or ‘manufacturing lots’.

The business intelligence software allows users to report data through a variety of tools, including Microsoft Excel, Trend and SAP Business Objects Dashboard Builder, and view it through the FactoryTalk VantagePoint software, Microsoft SharePoint and other portals.

The application can be used to address single or multiple manufacturing problems, on one manufacturing line or across a global enterprise. In addition, the software can be used to address specific manufacturing needs, like downtime reporting, status tracking or multiple control-system reporting. The software also can be bundled with services to provide a complete solution to satisfy unique vertical market needs.
