Manuvis Corp . has added a feature to its enterprise manufacturing intelligence (EMI) software suite that should speed a manufacturer’s recovery if a plant is hit by a natural or man-made disaster.
The Manuvis FactoryMRI suite pulls data such as machine conditions, job status, and capacity and resource utilization directly from production equipment—in real time.
The package is built on a service-oriented architecture , and one of the available services extracts all of the information on how production machines are configured. To aid in disaster recovery, that configuration information can be relayed to a secure off-site storage location, ensuring that data is swiftly restored if a serious incident disrupts normal business operations.
