Identify production delays and prioritize solutions
Manufacturers lose time to recurring faults, bottlenecks, missed alarms, and scattered production data. SmartSights helps teams understand what is driving performance loss, respond faster to critical issues, and turn plant data into information they can act on.
Trusted by 30,000+ industrial customer across the globe.
Turn fragmented plant data into production intelligence
Production data is often scattered across various systems. SmartSights integrates seamlessly to provide trusted production context, identify loss origins, and enhance team performance without requiring a complete system overhaul.
Find the real cause behind downtime and bottlenecks
When machine states, minor stops, speed loss, and interactions across a line are hard to connect, teams can spend too much time guessing. ABLE turns fragmented shop-floor signals into trusted production intelligence to explain root causes, while Peer helps teams track the resulting issues and actions through resolution.
Get the right people involved before downtime grows
A critical alarm can lead to extended production loss if not addressed quickly. Deploy WIN-911 notifications swiftly with pre-built connectors, avoiding custom coding. WIN-911 routes alarms, SmartSights Mobile connects teams remotely, and Peer manages resolution workflows.
Make performance easier to review across shifts and lines
Maintenance managers spend hours on manual data extraction. SmartSights ends this. XLReporter automates reports from plant systems, while OneView consolidates KPIs for consistent performance reviews. Consolidate data and create real-time dashboards, eliminating Excel and manual entry.

frequently asked questions
The Most Common Questions About How We Work With This Industry
Can't find your answer here?
Our team is available to walk through any question you have.
Talk to an expert-
How can manufacturers find the true causes of downtime and production loss?
Production loss can come from recurring faults, small stops, speed loss, and bottlenecks. Interactions between machines are difficult to see in line-level metrics alone. ABLE adds trusted production context and models line behavior so teams can understand where losses start, how they affect the line, and what to address first. -
How can production intelligence improve OEE without replacing existing systems?
OEE shows whether availability, performance, or quality changed, but it does not always explain why. ABLE works with existing PLC, SCADA, MES, OEE, historian, ERP, and analytics systems to add production context and root-cause intelligence rather than requiring a full system replacement project. -
How can manufacturers respond to critical alarms faster?
Delays in alarm notification can extend downtime and increase production loss. WIN-911 routes and escalates alarms to the right people through configured notification methods, while SmartSights Mobile extends alarm access and acknowledgement beyond a fixed workstation. -
How can we track and improve alarm response times?
WIN-911 automatically logs timestamps for alarm acknowledgement and resolution, providing real-time visibility into response performance. Peer can then be used to monitor issue handling, identify bottlenecks, and track mean time to repair (MTTR) for continuous improvement. -
How can teams make sure an issue is actually resolved after an alarm is acknowledged?
Acknowledging an alarm only confirms that someone saw it. WIN-911 can pass alarm information into Peer so teams can assign follow-up work, document actions, and track the issue from notification through resolution. -
How can manufacturers reduce manual production reporting?
XLReporter automates recurring shift, production, downtime, OEE, and other industrial reports using data from existing plant systems. This reduces manual copy-paste and report cleanup, while OneView brings important production KPIs together for a more consistent view of performance.
-
Can the platform generate multi-line KPI dashboards without manual spreadsheet consolidation?
Yes, the system automatically aggregates data from all lines and presents real-time dashboards, eliminating the need for Excel merges and manual data entry.
-
How does better production data support AI and analytics initiatives?
AI and analytics depend on production data that is trusted and connected to real operating context. ABLE connects and contextualizes shop-floor data, models production behavior, and creates a stronger data foundation that can feed existing analytics, cloud, MES, ERP, and AI initiatives.
-
How much integration work is required to deploy SmartSights?
SmartSights is designed for rapid deployment with pre-built connectors to common industrial systems like PLCs, SCADA, and MES. Typical implementation timelines are weeks, not months, and often require minimal PLC programming changes. Our solutions complement your existing infrastructure, reducing the need for extensive engineering resources or custom IT coordination.
-
Will SmartSights overlap with our existing alarm or reporting systems?
SmartSights is built to integrate seamlessly with your current operational technology. For example, WIN-911 enhances existing alarm systems by providing advanced notification and escalation, while XLReporter automates reporting from your current data sources without replacing them. Our goal is to add context and intelligence, not to duplicate or disrupt your established systems.
