Your OEE Is a Guess Until You Measure It
Most plants claim 60-70% OEE but cannot show the data. Dovient tracks Availability, Performance, and Quality in real time so you know exactly where production hours are lost and how to recover them.

Your OEE Data Is Probably Wrong
When operators manually log downtime events on a tablet or paper sheet, high-frequency micro-stops go unrecorded. Brief interruptions like small jams, misfeeds, and resets significantly impact productivity but are excluded from most OEE calculations because nobody logs them.
Different shifts use different data collection methods. Definitions of planned production time vary. By the time paper logs are entered into spreadsheets and the formatting is fixed, you are looking at a history lesson, not actionable data. Leadership already suspects the numbers are inaccurate.
Unplanned downtime consumes up to 11% of the revenue of Fortune Global 500 companies, totaling $1.4 trillion per year. Most of that is invisible because the data collection method is broken.
Dovient captures downtime reasons in real time from mobile devices with simple dropdown selection. Every minute is categorized. Micro-stops are tracked. Shift handovers are structured. The numbers finally add up.

Compare Performance Across Shifts
| Metric | Shift A | Shift B | Shift C |
|---|---|---|---|
| OEE % | 78% | 72% | 68% |
| Top Downtime | Changeover | Jamming | Breakdown |
| Output Qty | 2,340 units | 2,150 units | 2,090 units |
| Reject Rate | 2.1% | 3.4% | 4.2% |
Shift A is outperforming. Use this data to replicate their practices. Identify training gaps in Shift C. Data-driven improvement, not assumptions.
Plants using Dovient see an average 15-point OEE improvement within 6 months, purely from visibility into losses that were previously invisible.
No capital expenditure. No new equipment. Just data-driven focus on the losses that matter most.

"Before Dovient, OEE was a number the CFO asked about. Now it's something we actually understand and control. We know which shifts are losing time, why, and what to fix. That changes everything."Schedule a Demo
