How to find your Golden Batch in Factbird

This lesson shows you how to use Factbird’s Golden Batch feature to quickly identify your best-performing batch and use it as a benchmark for process optimization.

By analyzing your top run, you can establish a shared understanding of your line’s full potential and uncover insights to replicate high performance.

You’ll learn how to select a production line and product, set a date range of up to 12 months, and review the system’s analysis of the highest-performing batch in that period.

The Golden Batch view provides a full performance summary, planned versus produced quantities, completion rate, run duration, and shift details.

You can also review performance over time within the batch, see how output aligned with targets, and examine KPIs like downtime, mean time between failures, and cycle time per piece. The timeline view shows when stops occurred and how production flowed throughout the batch, helping you pinpoint the factors behind peak performance.
