PlantRun Manufacturing Intelligence & Production Management
Real-time visibility of your production operation — from machine performance and downtime to production, quality and traceability. PlantRun is Tascomp's manufacturing intelligence platform, connecting production equipment, operators and manufacturing information in one place.
Connect Your Shopfloor
PlantRun brings production information together in one central system, making it easier to monitor performance across individual machines, production lines, work cells or entire facilities.
PlantRun is a production monitoring system designed to connect directly to shopfloor assets and give manufacturers real-time visibility into their operations. It gives manufacturers the information they need to understand what is happening on the shop floor, identify losses, respond to problems and continuously improve performance.
By automatically collecting data from machines and processes, PlantRun provides the information needed to understand production performance, identify problems and make informed decisions — without relying on manual data collection.
Built to Cover the Whole Shopfloor
From live monitoring to reporting and integration, PlantRun brings every layer of production visibility into one system.
Real-time production monitoring with live dashboards and visualisation.
OEE and KPI tracking, production and job tracking, machine utilisation and cycle time monitoring.
Downtime monitoring and analysis, with alerts and notifications when they matter.
Automated reporting, ERP/MES integration, and energy monitoring.
Built for Manufacturing
PlantRun is used across a wide range of manufacturing environments where production visibility, efficiency and traceability matter. From individual machines to complete production operations, PlantRun can be configured around the way you manufacture.
Monitor machine utilisation, production output, downtime and job performance across individual machines and production cells.
Track production, downtime, waste, quality and product information across production lines and processes.
Monitor line performance, production rates, changeovers, stoppages and output in high-volume environments.
Capture detailed production and process information where consistency, traceability and performance are critical.
Monitor production processes, equipment performance, process parameters and operating conditions.
Bring production information from multiple machines, lines or sites into a consistent management view.
See Your Factory in Real Time
Know what's happening before the shift is over. PlantRun collects information directly from production equipment and combines it with information captured by operators and other manufacturing systems. Live dashboards provide an immediate view of:
Drill down from a factory-wide overview to an individual machine, production event or downtime reason to understand what's really happening. One platform. One view of production.
Measure What Matters
PlantRun automatically captures the information needed to measure manufacturing performance, providing a live and historical view of Availability, Performance and Quality. But OEE is only the starting point — PlantRun shows the events behind the number, helping you identify where time, output and efficiency are being lost.
Where and why equipment is stopping.
Where machines are running below their expected rate.
Where scrap, rejects and rework are affecting output.
Whether you're on target and where production is falling behind.
Understand Your Downtime
Every manufacturer experiences downtime. The important question is why. PlantRun automatically identifies machine and production stoppages and allows operators to record the reason behind them. Analyse downtime by:
Use Pareto analysis and historical trends to identify the problems having the greatest impact. Stop guessing what's costing you production.
Shop Floor to Management
PlantRun gives different people the information they need to do their jobs. The same production data — different views for different people.
Immediate information about their machine, production target, current status and problems requiring attention.
A live view across their area, with performance, downtime and production information available throughout the shift.
Plant-wide performance, trends, major losses and comparisons between machines, products and shifts.
A clear picture of production performance, utilisation, efficiency and improvement opportunities.
Track Products, Jobs & Batches
PlantRun can associate production information with products, jobs and batches, creating a more complete record of what happened during production. Capture information such as:
Barcode scanners and other identification technologies can also be integrated where required — providing a foundation for better production visibility and traceability without relying on disconnected paper records and spreadsheets.
More Than Machine Monitoring
PlantRun extends beyond traditional machine monitoring to provide a wider digital layer across the manufacturing operation. These capabilities can be introduced as part of a wider PlantRun system or added as your requirements develop.
Put job, product, process and operational information where it is needed on the shop floor.
Replace paper-based checks with structured digital data capture, including measurements, pass/fail results, comments and photographs.
Allow operators to request assistance and monitor responses from production, engineering, maintenance or quality teams.
Automatically bring important production events to the attention of the people who need to act.
Combine energy information with production data to understand consumption in the context of manufacturing activity.
Connect PlantRun to Your Factory
Work with the systems and equipment you already have. PlantRun is designed to integrate with existing manufacturing environments and can collect information from:
PlantRun can also provide information to other business and reporting systems where required. The aim isn't to create another isolated system — it's to connect the information already being generated across your operation.
From One Machine to the Whole Factory
PlantRun can start small and grow with your requirements. The same platform can develop with you.
Begin by monitoring a few machines to understand downtime.
Expand to an entire production line.
Introduce OEE and production monitoring across the factory.
Add traceability, digital checks, energy monitoring or additional sites.
From Data to Improvement
PlantRun supports a simple continuous improvement cycle.
Capture what is happening.
Identify downtime, performance and quality losses.
Give people the information they need to respond.
Measure whether changes have made a difference.
Keep improving based on real production data.
More Than OEE
While OEE and KPI monitoring are key capabilities, PlantRun provides much more than performance measurement. Its wider production monitoring capabilities can support:
Why PlantRun?
Designed specifically around the requirements of modern production environments.
See what is happening now, rather than waiting for end-of-shift reports.
Bring machines, operators, production and business information together.
Understand the reasons behind production losses, not just the headline numbers.
Configure PlantRun around your machines, processes and production requirements.
Start with a focused project and expand across your operation.
Built on decades of experience in industrial automation, control and manufacturing systems.
Supported by Tascomp
PlantRun is developed and supported by Tascomp's in-house engineering and programming team, backed by more than 40 years of experience in production monitoring.
From initial consultation and system design through to implementation and ongoing support, our engineers work closely with your team to develop a solution around your manufacturing challenges — rather than providing a one-size-fits-all system.
