Manufacturing Management Workflows

Here are the top 5 manufacturing management workflows:

1. Auto-Create Work Order for Flagged Items

In DreamzCMMS, you can customize tasks within any work order to include specific form items like subtasks. These subtasks often involve inspections where technicians can mark an asset or item as Pass, Flag, or Fail. With this automated workflow, any item flagged during an inspection triggers the immediate creation of a work order. This ensures that flagged items receive the necessary attention without delay, preventing any issues from being overlooked.

Workflow:
IF a Task is updated > AND the Value is set to Flag > THEN Create a Work Order

2. Automate High Priority Requests

In manufacturing, it's crucial to maintain equipment and machinery at peak efficiency. To achieve this, high-priority requests must be addressed without delay. This workflow ensures that critical requests are automatically approved and escalated, preventing them from getting stuck in pending status. By automating this process, you save time and ensure that the most urgent issues are resolved promptly.

Workflow:
IF a Request is created > AND the Request Priority is High > THEN Create work order

3. Assign Teams to Categorized Work Orders

In DreamzCMMS, administrators can create Teams within their account, organizing technicians based on their skill sets. This workflow ensures that when a work order is categorized, the relevant team of technicians is immediately notified and assigned to the task. This allows for efficient handling of work orders, ensuring that the right experts are always on the job.

Workflow:
IF a Work Order is created > AND the Work Order Category is Electrical > THEN Assign the Team to Work Order

4. Send Email Reminder When a Category is Assigned to a Work Order

In DreamzCMMS, certain teams, like Procurement, might not have direct access to the platform, potentially leaving them out of the loop on important updates. With this workflow, the Procurement team can receive real-time email notifications whenever a work order is assigned a specific category, such as "damage." This ensures they stay informed and can promptly manage the necessary actions, such as reconciling time and costs for each affected asset.

Workflow:
IF a Work Order is created > AND the Work Order Category is "damage" > THEN Send a Work Order Reminder Email to the Procurement team

5. Send Reminder Email If Work Order Is Not Assigned to a User or Team

Data accuracy is crucial in DreamzCMMS, as it allows administrators to leverage reporting and gain complete visibility into ongoing issues. This workflow ensures that all high-priority work orders are properly assigned, preventing any from slipping through the cracks. When combined with related workflows, this automation guarantees that no work order goes unattended.

Workflow:
IF a Work Order is created > AND the Work Order is not assigned to a User AND the Work Order is not assigned to a Team > THEN Send a Work Order Reminder Email
