Now, with the new enhancements, companies benefit from real-time data integration and a robust strategy insights dashboard. Once a manual function, users now have direct data integration from ERP, MRP, IIoT, financial, safety and quality management systems all in one place. The enhanced dashboard allows manufacturers to easily measure and monitor strategic plans and related KPIs where they can create or view action plans and countermeasures from anywhere with point-and-click simplicity.  This gives manufacturers a clear view into progress that provides quick answers to key questions, including, “Are we hitting our targets? What are the reasons for the missed targets? What are we doing to get back on track?”
As the pandemic proved, remote, on-demand access to strategic plans and performance data is essential for operations teams to rapidly address issues and achieve performance goals, especially when human capital and supply chain disruptions are constantly surfacing. In most organizations, data is locked into paper-based reporting, scattered across disparate systems or housed in hundreds of complex spreadsheets, all of which require manual data entry and analysis. For decision-makers, this data is often outdated and inaccurate, causing slow and cumbersome decision making.

Dploy Solutions Strategy Execution software eliminates that problem, making real-time insights available to anyone who needs it from anywhere—from front-line managers on the plant floor to C-suite executives across the globe.
“As the last year and half has proven, agility is essential to strategic planning success. Manufacturers can’t afford to wait a week or even days to implement changes when things around them are fluctuating minute-to-minute,” said Ken Koenemann, VP of Technology and Supply Chain at Dploy Solutions and TBM Consulting. “Dploy Solutions is unique as it is the only solution that ties together strategic initiatives, KPIs and improvement activities with real-time production data. It delivers the data you need to make fast, effective decisions, so you can quickly react to challenges and capitalize on new opportunities to stay on track with strategic objectives.”
