Honeywell Connected Plant vs. MasterControl Manufacturing Excellence

For a big plant with more number of connected machines, this is best suited. On the other hand if it is small plant then cost wise this is quite costly.

MasterControl Manufacturing Excellence is excellent for creating batch records to track a specific regulated process. It helps us keep our data in line and make sure we are following our procedures. there are some difficulties with more customizable products. The more variable that are in the product the fewer features that MasterControl Manufacturing Excellence can apply to assist

Incentivized

• Connectivity between the devices
• Data management between human and machine
• Cyber attack prevention

• Coding is not needed to build production records
• All data input types are highly configurable from getting data collected from integrated systems all the way to simple text entries.
• Customer service is outstanding to keep our cases resolved in a timely manner.
• The updates continue to improve end user experiences and better functionality

• Costing part to be looked on
• Solution for small industries

• Collaboration within a document on MasterControl Manufacturing Excellence could be improved
• I would like to be able to put more than 1 prerequisite on a training task in MasterControl Manufacturing Excellence
• It would be nice if training aids from MasterControl Manufacturing Excellence were accessible within the application and not just their site.

The quality service and the strong production versatility has helped us develop a great solution for our batch records. These improvements are much better than the legacy batch records and provide immediate access at multiple points across the organization. Would definitely purchase again.

As we go for more and more Automation the requirement of connectivity increases with security from cyber-attacks.

Most of the modern plants are going for IIOT and trying to optimize, monitor and predict the future requirement in terms of Inventory, Cost, Maintenance, Diagnostics and orders.

Honeywell Connected Plant does this job efficiently.

I receive positive feedback from manufacturing personnel about how easy it is to use when manufacturing and I also receive positive feedback from quality personnel for review batch records. We have had some deviations where operators are inputting data under other operators accounts which is really bad good documentation practices and is a compliance risk

Honeywell provides good support even at remote site Like we did.

During a few early templates, a configuration for product family had not been removed and it created an error. The subject matter expert and support desk was able to help me understand the error was builder generated and how to resolve it very quickly. This is now a non-existent occurrence.

Availability of resources and time.

I think that both are great tools and when used together they can definitely decrease wasted time in document creation and storage and also help to minimize problems that occur from having information easily at hand. Quality Excellence is a lot better for the quality aspect of production and being able to track quality issues where MasterControl Manufacturing Excellence is a lot nicer for the production side of things

Incentivized

• ROI for the Bigger plant is always there, considering the bid data management
• Omission of manual errors.
• If Planned early will have easy implementation.

• We have been able to reduce the amount of production records variability had based on product families.
• New user uptake is very high and they can learn the solution quickly.
• The ability to add formula parameters and production record linking has helped traceability.
