Case Study

Global Polymer and Materials Producer

Learn how this global polymer and materials producer selected dataPARC after critical functionality was lost in the transition from ProcessBook to PI Vision—gaining digitized operator rounds and advanced run filtering capabilities.

Company’s Story

The transition from ProcessBook to PI Vision resulted in critical loss of functionality, prompting a series of software trials. dataPARC emerged as the superior choice, offering digitized operator rounds and advanced run filtering that the team had been missing.

“The replacement of ProcessBook with PI Vision was prompted by the critical loss of functionality—dataPARC emerged as the superior choice.”

Replace ProcessBook & PI Vision

Selected after functionality was lost in the ProcessBook to PI Vision transition.

Digitization of Operator Rounds

Digital rounds eliminate paper misplacement and automate status communications.

Run Filtering

Filter out downtime and view consecutive runs of the same grade for focused analysis.

Company’s Challenges

The transition from ProcessBook to PI Vision resulted in critical functionality losses. Paper-based operator rounds risked misplacement and destruction, and there was no easy way to filter out downtime when analyzing consecutive production runs.

The dataPARC Solution

dataPARC emerged as the superior choice following software trials prompted by PI Vision’s shortcomings. Digitized operator rounds mitigate the risk of paper loss and streamline communication by automatically emailing status updates. Run filtering features allow users to filter out downtime and view consecutive runs of the same grade without interference from unrelated data, enabling more focused analysis.
