learn what's really slowing down your operations
Pedestrian Safety Responsibilities
Pedestrian safety is a shared responsibility across every worksite.
Clear pathways, marked crosswalks, and designated walk zones are enforced to minimize interaction between pedestrians and heavy machinery.
Pacefactory uses AI-powered video analytics to monitor pedestrian pathways, detect unsafe shortcuts, and flag violations 24/7.
Vehicle Safety Responsibilities
Operators of forklifts, trucks, and other vehicles play a critical role in maintaining a safe site environment.
Pacefactory tracks vehicle movement, identifies speed violations, and detects unsafe proximity to pedestrians or loading zones.
Ergonomics
Muscle strain and repetitive motion injuries are preventable with proper ergonomic practices.
Pacefactory analyzes body posture and movement patterns to detect ergonomic risks and anomalies. We assign REBA scores to flag high-risk tasks and help prevent injuries.
Crane Safety
Crane operations demand precision, communication, and strict safety protocols. From the riggers to the operators, everyone involved must follow standardized procedures to avoid dangerous incidents.
Pacefactory continuously monitors crane zones, flags any personnel entering restricted areas, and logs safety breaches automatically.
Standard Workflow Tracking
Operational consistency is key to maintaining flow and maximizing productivity.
Every task should be completed within a defined time frame to keep production balanced and avoid bottlenecks.
Pacefactory uses AI-powered video analytics to monitor work cycles, detect when operators spend too long on a step, and flag operational variances 24/7.
Utilization
Optimizing labor utilization is critical to balancing efficiency and cost on the production floor.
Finding the right number of operators for each process ensures workflows stay productive without overstaffing or bottlenecks.
Pacefactory uses AI-powered video analytics to monitor work areas, track operator utilization, and help identify the optimal labor-to-efficiency ratio 24/7.
Material Handling
Efficient material handling is essential to keeping production lines running without delays or disruptions.
Proper bin management and timely part replenishment prevent operators from becoming starved or blocked during their workflows.
Pacefactory uses AI-powered video analytics to monitor material handling activities, detect shortages or overflows, and flag preventable delays 24/7.
Changeovers
Fast, efficient changeovers are critical to maximizing production uptime and flexibility.
Just like a Formula 1 pitstop—where speed and precision have evolved from minutes to seconds—modern production must shift between products quickly and flawlessly.
Pacefactory uses AI-powered video analytics to monitor changeover processes, detect delays or errors, and flag inefficiencies 24/7—helping teams achieve faster, smoother transitions every time.
Operational Variance
Operational consistency is key to maintaining flow and maximizing productivity.
Every task should be completed within a defined time frame to keep production balanced and avoid bottlenecks.
Pacefactory uses AI-powered video analytics to monitor work cycles, detect when operators spend too long on a step, and flag operational variances 24/7.
Bottleneck Analysis
Bottlenecks silently drain productivity and disrupt flow—but they don’t always stay in one place.
When one station slows down, it often causes upstream backups or downstream starvation—disrupting flow and reducing overall throughput. Without 24/7 monitoring, these shifting constraints are hard to spot and even harder to resolve.
Pacefactory uses AI-powered video analytics to continuously monitor equipment status, detect flow disruptions, and identify root causes of downtime. Teams can pinpoint exactly where and why delays occur—turning gut feel into data-backed decisions that unlock true line efficiency.
Part Identification
Part identification is critical to maintaining quality and preventing costly defects on the production line.
Correct parts, labels, and assemblies must be consistently verified to ensure every product meets exact specifications.
Pacefactory uses AI-powered video analytics to monitor parts, detect mismatches or missing components, and flag issues 24/7—before they become bigger problems.
Process Deviation
Standardized processes are the foundation of efficient, high-quality production.
Clear workflows, defined tasks, and repeatable methods are critical to keeping operations running smoothly and consistently.
Pacefactory uses AI-powered video analytics to monitor workstations, detect process deviations, and flag non-standard actions 24/7—before they impact quality.
Quality Inspection Compliance
Quality inspection is essential to ensuring every product meets precise specifications and regulatory standards. It's not enough to assume inspections are being done correctly; procedures must be followed consistently and thoroughly.
Pacefactory focuses on auditing inspection behaviors—verifying whether checks are performed as scheduled (e.g., every 2 hours) and executed according to the correct procedures.
Using AI-powered video analytics, we monitor and validate inspection activities 24/7—ensuring compliance, reducing the risk of falsified data, and supporting a culture of accountability.
