Shop Floor Control
Shop Floor Control (SFC) refers to the management of production processes on the factory floor. It involves monitoring and coordinating activities, resources, and workflows to ensure that manufacturing runs smoothly and efficiently. SFC systems track the progress of work in real-time, manage scheduling, and handle the allocation of materials and labor. By providing visibility into operations, SFC helps improve productivity, reduce delays, and maintain quality standards, ultimately leading to better overall performance and timely delivery of products. It acts as a bridge between planning and execution in manufacturing environments.
