Allied Motion Andon System Implementation Case Study

This case study outlines the implementation of the Sage Clarity Next-Gen Andon System at Allied Motion Technologies Inc. in Dordrecht, The Netherlands. The document describes the challenges faced with the previous Andon legacy system, which provided inconsistent support and lacked customization, leading to inefficiencies in production processes. The new Andon system aimed to improve response and resolution times, enhance communication, and provide real-time data for better decision-making. Following the implementation in December 2022, Allied Motion reported a 10% improvement in response time and issue resolution, along with enhanced equipment reliability. The case study details how the new system supports Lean manufacturing initiatives and allows for better data analysis using Power BI. It also highlights the user-friendly nature of the application, which facilitated quick adoption among staff. The document concludes with future plans for expanding the Andon system to new production areas as data continues to support ongoing improvements.
