Overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) measures of the true performance of manufacturing productivity by evaluating equipment availability, production performance, and product quality factors. OEE measurement and reporting is critical for attributing equipment-based losses to their source by isolating and identifying the underlying cause(s).
Equipment downtimes, reduced equipment performance, and quality issues are the most common causes of equipment-based productivity loss in manufacturing. By identifying the underlying causes, manufacturers uncover opportunities for high-value optimizations to correct underperforming manufacturing processes.
What is SYSTEMA’s OEE Package?
SYSTEMA’s OEE Package includes “Starter” and “Advanced” solutions for enabling real-time manufacturing performance improvements based on insights gathered through SAP MII’s OEE capabilities. This approach takes a shop floor centric view to implementing Industry 4.0 solutions for manufacturers.
Benefits

Leverage standard OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) capability of SAP MII

Available implementation for both discrete and process industries, taking into account various manufacturing orders, such as: production orders, process orders, planned orders (repetitive manufacturing)

Scalable and capable of accommodating additional functionalities (e.g. additional quality, material-movement related features)

Rapid deployment across multiple sites

Production yield / scrap confirmation

Native integration to SAP ERP (S/4HANA or ECC) with ability to integrate to 3rd party applications (SCADA, MES, etc.) and IIoT devices

Near real-time visualization on mobile devices using Fiori design and UI5 technologies

Optional addition of custom KPIs and reports
Key Features of SYSTEMA’s OEE Starter Package
SYSTEMA’s preconfigured OEE Starter solution consists of consulting, implementation and deployment
of the solution for one pilot site.
The project scope for the pilot site includes:
- Single manufacturing line
- Integration of up to 25 machines
- Data captured through OPC Server and PCo interface
- Integration with SAP ERP (S/4HANA or ECC)
- Standard OEE Interface
- Mobile device accessibility for monitoring operations
- Standard “out-of-the-box” reports for line and plant monitoring

OEE Starter Implementation Timeline & Approach
SYSTEMA anticipates to implement the solution for the given scope in 9 weeks, with 5 weeks of onsite presence for consulting and deployment. SYSTEMA recommends agile methodology for pilot implementation.
OEE Starter Architecture
This solution allows for easy upgrade to the Advanced Package which enables deployment across multiple manufacturing sites by interfacing with SAP DMi and SAP Analytics Cloud.
Proposed Architecture
OEE Starter Technology Requirements
SYSTEMA recommends the following technology pack
for this solution:
- SAP S/4HANA or SAP ECC 6.0 with EHP 6.0 with OEE add-on component
- SAP MII 15.3 or higher
Key Features of SYSTEMA’s OEE Advanced Package
SYSTEMA’s preconfigured OEE Advanced solution consists of consulting, implementation and deployment of the solution for one pilot site. In addition to the features of the OEE Starter package, the OEE Advanced package provides:
- 18 standard KPI’s for OEE, quality, order fulfillment and on-time delivery
- Option for rapid deployment across multiple sites
- Ability to compare between multiple workstations, manufacturing lines, and production sites
The project scope for the pilot site includes:
- Two manufacturing lines (to be identified by the customer during the consulting phase)
- Integration of up to 25 machines
- Data can be captured through OPC Server and PCo interface
- Integration to SAP ERP (S/4HANA or ECC)
- Standard OEE interface
- Standard out of the box reports for line and plant monitoring
- Enable OEE in SAP DMi to provide comparisons between plants and production lines
OEE Advanced Implementation Timeline & Approach
SYSTEMA anticipates to implement the solution for the given scope in 12 weeks, with 5 weeks of onsite presence for consulting and deployment.
SYSTEMA recommends agile methodology for pilot implementation.
OEE Advanced Architecture
The OEE Advanced solution can be scaled up and deployed across multiple manufacturing sites, and integrated to SAP Digital Manufacturing Insights with near real-time integration to SAP S/4HANA or ECC. The solution can then lay the foundation for enhanced digitalization in the shop floor and integration to a networked supply chain.

Why partner with SYSTEMA?
At SYSTEMA, we understand the challenges that come along with implementing new technologies on the shop floor. We have been providing training, consulting and successful implementations of SAP Manufacturing solutions since 2009. A common theme in all of our digital transformation projects is to align all key representatives who will be impacted by systems, technology, and process changes by enlisting their feedback, addressing questions and concerns, and developing solutions with the end-users in mind. Further, we provide the support and services necessary to guide the change process from start to finish and empower users to effectively leverage the system without ongoing external support by providing the necessary training.
SYSTEMA was one of the first companies to become a preferred SAP Manufacturing Service Partner when SAP began offering shop floor solutions and MES initiatives more than a decade ago. For 30 years, SYSTEMA has been providing manufacturers with a full range of IT-consulting and best practices to help maximize performance within their production environments.
