Proficy Workflow from GE Fanuc Digitizes Work Processes

Powered by Proficy SOA (Service Oriented Architecture) Proficy Workflow from GE Fanuc Intelligent Platforms provides an industrial Business Process Management (BPM) solution that digitizes and streamlines production processes – from work instructions and SOPs to corrective action and HACCP monitoring. .

“Proficy Workflow brings the power and results of BPM to the industrial environment,” says Erik Udstuen, GE Fanuc’s Software General Manager. “As one of the world’s largest and most innovative manufacturers, GE can help companies deliver BPM to production operations and drive three key initiatives: integration – coordinating processes across the enterprise; digitization – driving processes electronically; and finally lean – defining a process improvement framework for business transformation.”

“A key tool that will enable today's plants and factories to realize [the] strategy for operational excellence is the ability to define the process or workflow steps required to achieve a logical execution path,” said Craig Resnick, research director with ARC Advisory Group.

“Proficy Workflow appears to meet this criteria of a tool that will help move manufacturers, processors, and OEMs to a single environment where the existing systems are connected and interacting with each other to maximize the information value of each asset, which will positively impact plant and factory productivity and profitability.”
