Is the dashboard customisable?

Per role, per shift, per plant. The default layout works for most; the door is open for variations.

Does it support TV-on-the-wall mode?

Yes. A read-only big-screen layout for line- or area-level status boards. Refreshes itself; survives months of "always on".

Shop Floor Execution

uShopFloor

From paper and confusion to clarity on the floor.

Many shop floor environments still rely on paper, disconnected tools, or unclear instructions. uShopFloor translates planning into clear, executable tasks designed for gloves, noise and real environments. The interface is intentionally simple — no training should be required. Inline quality checks, materials consumption, machine status and issue capture all happen on the same screen the operator is using anyway — so the loop between planning and execution stays closed.

uShopFloor · Shift Dashboard

A board for the shift supervisor.

Productive hours. Output vs plan. Open issues. Downtime by reason. Tomorrow's load. One screen that a shift supervisor opens at start-of-shift, glances at every hour, and uses to run the daily standup at end-of-shift. Available when uShopFloor runs alongside uScheduler Production — the plan is what the dashboard measures against. uShopFloor on its own gives each worker their own metrics; the team-wide view comes with the planning side.

Live shift KPIs

Output, attainment to plan, downtime hours, scrap rate, open issues, ahead/behind schedule by line. Pre-built; no configuration.

Drill from line to operator

A line behind plan → which orders, which operator, which reason. The dashboard is a doorway to the underlying execution data.

Threshold alerts

Set a target on any KPI; cross it and the supervisor sees an alert. Per-line targets so a precision cell has different rules than packaging.

What you see

The shift supervisor's morning screen.

A shift supervisor's effective day is determined by what they notice in the first hour. uShopFloor puts the supervisor screen on the same data as the operator screen — so what the operator does is immediately visible to the supervisor, and the supervisor's decisions can be acted on by the operator without a relay.

When this matters

Signals you'd reach for this.

Supervisors walk every hour

Walking the floor is useful — but should not be the only data source. A live screen frees walks for coaching instead of data collection.

Shift handovers are verbal

A verbal handover loses information. A data-backed handover preserves the context that matters tomorrow.

Targets are end-of-shift discoveries

A line behind plan at 14:00 has time to catch up. The same discovery at 16:30 does not.

"How was the shift?" is anecdotal

Without a shift summary built from data, the answer is whatever the supervisor remembers. The KPIs prevent selective memory.

FAQ

The questions everyone asks first.

Still wondering? Ask us directly →

Yes. The Shift Dashboard measures execution against a plan, so it lives on top of uScheduler Production. uShopFloor on its own still gives each worker visibility of their own metrics — hours, output, attainment against their own targets — but the line-wide and shift-wide view is the planning side's job to provide.
