A Factbird productivity benchmark report on: The first 90 days of manufacturing digitization

Manufacturers have plenty of ambition when it comes to digitization. The hard part is getting it to work in the real world, where definitions drift, routines never fully settle, data quality is lacking, and improvement work becomes secondary the moment the day gets busy.

This report puts numbers on those early stages of a rollout. It shows what OEE and productivity improvement look like in the first 90 days across industries, based on real production data from Factbird’s Production Insights. It guides you how to read the benchmarks in the right context, then turn what you see into practical next steps and a weekly cadence that can hold up on the shop floor.
‍

What you can dive into:

• 9-points increase in OEE (from 44.7% at baseline to 53.4% at Month 3, on average across all industries)
• ‍19% increase in Productivity (over the same period and industries)
• Industry deep dives include: Food and beverage, CPG, Packaging and containers, Industrial equipment and devices, Pharma and medical devices, Construction and building, and Automotive
• Benchmarks by starting point and by industry group, so you can compare against the range that matches your baseline
• ‍Practical rollout lessons, including what drive early wins and what tend to slow progress down
