Optimized Chemical Manufacturing Efficiency Through OEE

Uncover the hidden plant with real-time OEE insights.

OEE Challenges in the Chemical Industry

OEE is a critical KPI for chemical manufacturers, but outdated spreadsheets, siloed data and delayed reporting make it difficult to act on insights. Without real-time visibility, teams struggle to identify bottlenecks, prevent downtime and drive continuous improvement. Shiftconnector® transforms OEE data into actionable intelligence, paving the way to optimized chemical manufacturing efficiency. By automating calculations and integrating data across systems, the chemical manufacturing software eliminates errors, provides real-time tracking and connects OEE insights with shift handovers, maintenance logs and event reports. With a clear, shared view of plant performance, teams can collaborate more effectively, reduce inefficiencies and maximize asset utilization

Why OEE Matters in the Chemical Industry

  • Maximize Asset Utilization:  Real-time OEE tracking helps teams identify bottlenecks, reduce downtime, improve batch cycle time and keep equipment running at peak efficiency.
  • Data-Driven Decision-Making:  Transparent, automated calculations ensure reliable OEE insights, giving operators, engineers, and managers the information they need to drive continuous improvements to chemical manufacturing efficiency.
  • Contextualized Insights: By connecting OEE data with shift handovers, maintenance logs, and event reports, teams across operations and management can work together to optimize plant performance.

    BASF: Boosting Industrial Performance in the Chemical Industry

    Dr. Michael Eckardt
    Project Lead, Technical Process at BASF

    BASF used Shiftconnector® Performance Management to integrate real-time AVEVA PI data with SAP PM, creating a standardized, transparent system for tracking asset utilization and OEE. By contextualizing performance data with human insights from shift reports and maintenance logs, teams were able to identify inefficiencies and improve decision-making. Shiftconnector has not only driven standardization within BASF, but it has also empowered plant workers and OpEx engineers to shorten batch cycle times and enhance asset performance.”
