Accu-Sort® FAST Suite Enterprise(TM) Unlocks Access to Critical Automation System Information
PHILADELPHIA, Pa. - September 10, 2007 - Accu-Sort Systems, Inc. introduces FAST Suite Enterprise(TM), a software tool that provides quick, easy access to critical operational data about automated materials handling systems. FAST Suite Enterprise is the first user friendly, web-based product that allows users to make informed decisions on how to improve efficiency and throughput by allowing access to operating information about their print and apply, sortation and production systems from anywhere in the world.
Sortation and labeling systems traditionally consist of islands of automation that allow limited access to the real-time operational data. FAST Suite Enterprise software makes this critical data available to the entire organization via the web, providing an up-to-the-minute picture of each system.
"To make key business decisions, organizations need information that has been locked away in their automation solutions," says Mike Kuhno, Accu-Sort Systems Product Manager. "We're providing that capability through FAST Suite Enterprise and giving our customers the ability to view this data anywhere a web browser is available. It's truly unlocking the information they need to run their business better."
FAST Suite Enterprise software can be loaded on a PC workstation or file server, depending on the customer's automation requirements. The software can support a single production line or a fully automated manufacturing or distribution center, providing the scalability required by most users today. Since the user interface is delivered through a web browser, there is no need for software uploads to the user's workstation. Data from FAST Suite Enterprise can be viewed on a laptop or desktop within a facility, across multiple facilities, externally from a corporate location or remotely from any location.
FAST Suite Enterprise software allows users to configure and control multiple lines through a single interface, enabling fast and easy process monitoring. Specific functionalities include:
Secure access to real-time operational data that lets the customer adjust systems, materials and resources to meet customer demands and streamline your processes
Enhanced operational statistics and reporting shows how the facility is performing against target metrics, and helps identify system and equipment performance issues before they become a problem
Browser-based user interface provides secure access anywhere in a facility or across the network using any Windows® PC with out loading additional software
Browser-based reporting provides access to all the critical FAST Suite report data, while eliminating the need to manage and deploy additional software
Scalable solution configured to fit business needs with single line, multiple line, or enterprise wide monitoring
Unlimited user sessions hosted at the same time on a secure network provide continuous system information to all key personnel wherever they may be located
Remote workstation and device monitoring gives real-time status of all line devices without having to go out to the line!
FAST Suite Enterprise also enables a user to configure access control and authorization across all applications in the FAST Suite system, including the ability to enforce "strong" usernames and password management to support IT policies. FAST Suite Enterprise permits users to configure shift management across facilities to ensure proper accounting of production/distribution information to appropriate shift personnel.
