PBOPlus 7-Step Framework 

 for OEE Improvement & Changeover Time Reduction

Create clear Tool–Time–Task SOPs for machine operations and changeovers

Ensure “Right First Time” execution with preparatory checks

01: Design & Deploy 3T SOPs

Use templates and checklists to monitor adherence and performance

Enable auditability and operator accountability

02: Implement Precision Tracking Tools

Form reliability teams for proactive machine upkeep

Reduce breakdowns through structured maintenance protocols
 

03: Build Preventive Maintenance Capability

Conduct speed trials and test alternative parts for faster output

Minimize setup/changeover time with process fine-tuning

04: Optimize Machine Speed & Setup

Eliminate manual, repetitive work in material movement

Improve safety and throughput with simple automation

05: Apply Low Cost Automation (LCA)

Introduce 3-layered structure with multiskilled teams

Match manpower with workload using workload analysis
 

06: Re-Engineer Workforce & Roles

Apply 5S and space optimization

Clear clutter, reduce search time, and smoothen man-material flow

07: Enable Flow & Eliminate Waste

PBOPlus 7-Step Model 

for Intelligent Truck Traffic & Yard Management

1: Real-Time Truck Tracking

•⁠  ⁠Live, stage-wise visibility of each truck from gate-in to gate-out
•⁠  ⁠Integrated GPS, RFID, or QR-based tracking
•⁠  ⁠Dashboard view for control room and dispatch team

Step 2: Centralized Traffic Monitoring

•⁠  ⁠All truck movements monitored centrally via a command center
•⁠  ⁠AI flags congestion, delays, and idle trucks
•⁠  ⁠Control teams can take real-time corrective actions

3: Load Normalization & Queuing Control

•⁠  ⁠AI-based load balancing across zones to avoid pile-ups
•⁠  ⁠Dynamic truck slotting to distribute incoming traffic
•⁠  ⁠Predictive algorithms to prevent queuing at choke points

4: Single Window Clearance

•⁠  ⁠All documentation, approvals, and checks through one digital window
•⁠  ⁠Eliminates inter-departmental movement and delays
•⁠  ⁠Seamless flow between weighbridge, gate, and loading points

5: Zero Delay 3T SOP Execution

•⁠ Truck–Time–Task (3T) benchmarked SOP at each stage
•⁠  ⁠Auto-escalation on deviation from standard process time
•⁠  ⁠Eliminates NVA (Non-Value-Added) activities and unnecessary truck wait time

6: Scan & Go with Zero Search Loading

 •⁠ QR/NFC-based process handoff at every checkpoint
•⁠  ⁠Digitally mapped inventory ensures no manual search or stock count
•⁠  ⁠Trucks get pre-assigned bundles for instant loading

7: GenAI Control (Upcoming Upgrade)

•⁠  ⁠AI-powered assistant to manage truck traffic, priorities, and escalations
•⁠  ⁠Predictive alerts, voice/chat interface for field ops
•⁠  ⁠Automated SOP compliance and decision supportAt PBOPlus, we focus on uncovering and reshaping these ingrained patterns to foster a culture of accountability, innovation, and continuous learning. Whether it's resistance to change, siloed thinking, or legacy decision-making habits, we help organizations confront their subconscious blocks and build a more agile, aligned workforce from the inside out.

Time Reduction

Core Philosophy & Vision

At PBOPlus, we believe that speed is not just a metric — it’s a mindset. Our time reduction philosophy is built on the foundation of digitization, automation, and accountability, transforming sluggish, manual workflows into streamlined, real-time operations.

Our vision is to create frictionless flow across every node of the value chain — from trucks at the gate to data at the desk. By integrating smart systems, AI-driven decision-making, and structured SOPs, we reduce wait time, cycle time, and handoffs — not quality. Whether it’s supply chain, shop floor, or yard management, we enable organizations to move with purpose, precision, and agility.

PBOPlus 7-Step Method 

for SCM Time Reduction

PBOPlus 7-Step Framework 

for SCM Time Reduction
 

Digitize all tasks (order entry, approvals, dispatch, procurement) into time-bound workflow queues

Enables parallel processing across sales, SCM, and finance
 

01: Create Online Workflow Queues

Replace Excel/manual steps with automated online execution

Reduce coordination delays and eliminate paper dependencies
 

02:  Enable Paperless Execution

Use objective master data and non-repetitive entry logic

Speeds up order processing, GRN, and invoice validation
 

03: Standardize Value-Added Data Entry

Track every transaction—from prospect to delivery—with time stamps

Improves accountability and proactive delay management
 

04: Provide Real-Time Process Visibility

Auto-approve tasks that exceed defined SLA norms

Reduces idle wait times in procurement and order booking
 

5: Automate Escalation & Approval Logic

Seamlessly connect SAP, ERP, Pre-Sales, and Production using RPA + IOI

Minimizes handoffs, re-entry, and status follow-ups
 

6: Integrate Cross-System Interfaces (RPA, IOI)

Use dashboards and ML models for delivery prediction, order delays & demand planning

Powers agile decision-making across SCM nodes

07: Activate Advanced Analytics & AI
