About The Customer
Connor Solutions is one of the UK’s largest privately owned EMS providers. The company provides world-class manufacturing solutions to customers from the medical and avionics sectors as well as other demanding segments within the electronics manufacturing industry. Connor Solutions is always looking ahead and understands the increasing demands for compliance, control, and traceability that working in these sectors impose. The company's focus is on adopting “Best In Class” digital manufacturing practices to enable significant new business opportunities.
The Challenge
Connor Solutions, one of the UK’s largest privately owned EMS providers, was facing increasing demands for compliance, control, and traceability in the Medical and Avionics sectors of electronics manufacturing. The company was relying on multiple systems to manage data integrity, which was becoming unsustainable due to the associated costs for increasingly complex operational management. The company decided to move towards a single holistic MES solution that would provide a single source of actionable live data, enabling them to achieve the next level of factory control, automation, visibility, and operational excellence.
The Solution
Connor Solutions selected the Aegis FactoryLogix MES software, which provides values and benefit across all aspects of electronics manufacturing, including advanced engineering, supply-chain, quality, and operational management functionality. The software was integrated with the company's existing Epicor ERP system, providing a unified transition and removing the opportunity for mistakes. The Aegis FactoryLogix software quickly formed a critical part of the live production operation, enhancing other key manufacturing related systems. The software also included the advanced yet simple “inForce” hardware, which was integrated at the start and end of each line throughout the entire manufacturing process.
Operational Impact
  • The implementation of Aegis’ FactoryLogix Software has completely transformed the way Connor Solutions manages processes, operations and how information is collected and shared.
  • The software has enabled automated full WIP (Work in Progress) tracking, sub-assembly genealogy, inventory validation, parameter controlled data collection, management and certification control.
  • The company can now analyze historical data and produce reports in just a few minutes, a task that once took hours or even days.
  • The data can now be used as an active quality management platform, to discover more opportunity to improve performance and identify potential causes of defects.
Quantitative Benefit
  • Reduction of more than 90% of the manual effort previously required for tracking, control, and data collection.
  • Significant new business opportunities have been enabled for the company.
