Running a manufacturing operation means managing complexity that doesn’t slow down; jobs in progress, standards that need to stay current, quality data that has to be captured at the source, and a floor that keeps moving whether or not leadership has the full picture. Most operations are absorbing that complexity instead of managing it. Problems surface late. Leaders make decisions on incomplete information. And the gap between what the ERP planned and what the floor actually did stays invisible until someone digs for it.
That gap is what Optegrity was built to close. And this fall, we made it narrower.
Every update in this release was designed around the same question: what does the right person need to know, and when do they need to know it? From real-time queue time alerts to full ERP write-back to gamified problem-solving in Booster — these features give your team the visibility to act before small delays become big problems, and the infrastructure to make improvement stick long after the event is over.
Here’s what’s new.
Across the Platform
Global Search
Find anything, anywhere — across the entire Optegrity system in one search. No more hunting through modules to track down a job, document, or record.
Routine & MES
Attached SOPs in MES
Your MES now works with both system-generated SOPs and SOPs built outside the system. Whichever way your team documents standard work, time tracking and execution follow the same process.
Deeper Routine + Gigbot Integration
Defects can now be captured directly from the same screen where the SOP is presented and time is tracked. Quality and standard work — connected at the point of work, not pieced together after the fact.
Dispatch Tool
Pull jobs from your ERP and create dispatches for individuals, work centers, or departments — with clocking tied directly to the dispatch. Scheduling and execution, finally in the same system.
Full ERP Read + Write Integration
We’ve always been able to read from your ERP. Now Optegrity writes back — job and time transactions, direct and indirect labor allocation. Your ERP stays current without the manual entry.
Hour by Hour Report
Real-time production performance tracked hour by hour, shift by shift. Know where you stand before the day gets away from you.
Queue Time on MES
Queue time is now calculated and tracked automatically. When a job passes the system-defined queue threshold, shop floor leaders get notified — so wait time gets managed before it compounds.
Queue Time Analyzer
Real-time alerts when jobs stop moving, backed by advanced analytics. See the bottleneck before it becomes a delay.
Operation Efficiency Reminder
When standard time can’t be met, the system flags it automatically. Leaders get the information they need to respond; without waiting for end-of-shift reports.
Booster
Gamification — Social Reactions on Kaizens
Teams can now react to both minor and major kaizens directly in Booster. Recognition happens in real time, in the system where the work lives; because a problem-solving culture grows when contributions get seen.
These updates are live. If you want to see any of them in action, we’re a demo away.
