Follow-up Control
It is to control the manufacturing activities by grasping the progress status of issued orders and expediting the delayed orders. It is indispensable to grasp and maintain the latest progress status based on the performance results reported by each process, and notify the whole the system of it. If something abnormal occurs in an order, the order should be notified quickly. Especially, such follow-up control is very important in the make-to-order or job-shop production's form.
