Welcome to Factory X

RackPilot runs the whole site off one live picture β€” warehouse, loading bay, shop floor and ingredients store. This is a live walk-through of exactly how it works. Scroll, or use the dots on the right.

Selecting a factory

One RackPilot can run several sites β€” each one private and separate.

HowAfter Factory login you pick your site from the list β€” here, Factory X. Each factory has its own racks, lines, people and rules.
WhyA group with more than one plant needs each site walled off β€” nobody sees another site's data.
BenefitRun one site or twenty from the same login screen, fully isolated.

Inside Factory X

Four categories β€” and who logs in

Every person signs in to their own category and sees only that. Each category shares the same tools (Tasks, Fishbone, Billy) but keeps its own data.

What a manager does

The manager sees the whole factory and holds the sign-offs.

AccessGoes into every category, sees Billy's whole-site picture, and the TV wall.
PeopleAdds people, sets each one's type (Staff / Coordinator / Viewer) and their categories β€” one or several β€” in a tap.
Sign-offsFulfils packaging requests and signs off Fishbone solutions after reviewing the problem and causes.
BenefitControl without bottlenecks β€” the floor keeps moving, the manager owns the decisions that matter.

Fishbone β€” a full problem-solving suite

From a one-tap report to a printed A3 β€” root-cause every problem, in every category.

CaptureHead = problem, spikes = causes, tail = fix. Set a severity, add a photo, and let πŸ€– Billy suggest causes from the words and the line's real downtime. No line to type β€” it auto-scopes.
SolveDrive to the root with the 5 Whys, assign corrective actions (owner + due date), and print a one-page A3 report for the review.
ManagerOnly a manager signs off the solution and can delete a problem β€” everything stays in the history.
Never missedEmailed to every manager the moment one is raised (High/Critical flagged), a daily reminder until solved, and overdue actions chased automatically.

Downtime, measured

Capture why a line stops, time it, and rank the biggest causes of delay.

HowWhen a line goes Down or Changeover, you log a reason (Mechanical, No material, Changeover, Cleaning…) and it auto-times. A Top causes (7 days) chart ranks them.
WhyYou can't fix what you don't measure β€” the biggest delays hide across dozens of small stops.
BenefitAttack the few causes behind most of the lost time, and feed Fishbone with real targets. Billy flags long stops live.

The hidden cost

Five systems. None of them talk.

Green-screen terminals, a labelling PC older than the smartphone, scanners, automated storage and the WMS β€” each its own island. The real picture lives on clipboards and in people's heads, so delays repeat and managers find out too late.

β›” Operators hop between screens β›” No single live view β›” Delays spotted too late β›” History lost on paper

Shop floor asks, warehouse delivers

Packaging requests that already know if the stock is there.

HowA line raises a request in two taps. Billy checks the warehouse by UIC or SKU and flags a shortage on the spot β€” β€œneed 6, only 5: 1 short”.
WhyA line waiting on packaging is lost output. Catch the gap before it stops the line.
