The FPS Factory Dashboard is the principal operations reporting tool used by industry-leading fabs around the world.
- Enables quick response to machine and WIP issues
- Increases all factory personnel awareness
- Improves reaction time of personnel
- Improves alignment of operations with planning

The Factory Digital Twin is the real-time digital representation of the factory state and operations. The Digital Twin takes data from all the factory systems, calculates key metrics and performance indicators, and provides a standard interface to build Smart applications.
- Provides a universal platform to which production data can be loaded from multiple resources.
- Facilitates translation of data into information, thereby driving the function of all connected solutions.
- Central and foundational core of Smart Manufacturing

Factory Scheduler utilizes Advanced Heuristics, Linear Programming, Optimization, and Intelligent Search Algorithms to generate a real-time optimized schedule that can be easily tuned to meet your manufacturing needs.
- Calculates and conduct a full schedule of lots running on tools
- Comprehends area-specific constraints and objectives
- Manages queue timers, maintenance windows, cluster tools, etc.

Provides straightforward instructions to operators and material handlers on the factory floor.
- Integrates the optimal lot level solutions created by the FPS Scheduler
- Visual aides to inform Operators when the tools in their area will go idle
- Directs material handlers to get the lots to the right place at the right time to ensure optimal tool utilization

Leverage the historical operational data in the Digital Twin to create previously unavailable insight into Cycle Time losses.
- Easy to navigate cycle time website available to anyone on the company intranet.
- The individual components of cycle time (queue time, process time, post process time) are broken down visually.
- Components of cycle time can be compared by product, by module, or by step within the product flow.
- Charts showing average WIP levels allow you to see the interactions between WIP and cycle time.

Creates estimates of tool utilization for given starts profiles using precise factory data.
- Enhanced material movement modeling
- Granular cycle time contributions by product, by module, or by step within the product flow

Optimally assign team members in the factory based upon current and future workloads.
- Automatically determines the optimal assignment of shift team members
- Consider certifications and skill sets
- Capture historical operating staffing and performance
- Provide critical real-time visualization of staffing

Supporting the Autonomous Driving Zero Defect Challenge - World’s First Smart Integrated Sampling Management System
- User defined rule set to manage sampling objectives
- Integrates with clients MES and tags inventory
- Minimize the amount of material being measured while maintaining coverage and managing excursions

Predict your factory shipments based on current and historical factory states, broken down by future weeks.
- Model factory output
- Provide supprort for multiple facilities and complicated manufacturing flows
Enhanced Tool Performance (ETP) state logic combines traditional E10 tool centric data with WIP States to provide a comprehensive view of fab operational losses not visible with traditional reporting.
- Detailed state analysis that exceeds the standard E10 Semi state model
- Increased ability to identify manufacturing loss
