What is the Master Data of Inefficiencies?
The Master Data of Inefficiencies is a unified, time-stamped dataset that links machine-level signals (OEE), operator context, and visual evidence (Computer Vision) directly to maintenance execution records (CMMS) to provide a complete, auditable history of every production loss and its resolution.
Without this unified layer, your factory operates on "Tribal Knowledge" and fragmented reports.
Fabrico ensures that Mike (the Tactical Manager) isn't just looking at a "Performance Loss" on a chart, but is building a structured record of why that loss occurred and how it was fixed.
This data is the currency of the future smart factory.
The 12-Month Rule: Why You Can't "Fast-Forward" to Industrial AI
Most manufacturers wait until they are "ready for AI" before they start cleaning their data.
This is a multi-million dollar mistake.
Industrial AI models, like the upcoming Fabrico Agent (Roadmap), require a massive volume of historical "Truths" to learn from.
If you don't start collecting clean, integrated OEE and maintenance data today, you will be 12 months behind your competitors when you finally flip the AI switch.
By implementing a System of Action now, you are effectively "pre-funding" your future autonomy through immediate Capacity Reclamation.
Comparison Matrix: Siloed Legacy vs. Master Data Foundation

Visual (Zoom-In) + Technical Proof |
| Response Logic |
Human-Dependent |
Automated (Performance Triggers) |
| Multi-Site Search |
Impossible |
Unified (Group-First Architecture) |
| Maintenance Link |
Disconnected |
Native Integrated CMMS |

AI-Ready on Day 1 |
Capturing the "Why" via the Visibility Trifecta
AI is only as good as the context it receives.
A PLC signal alone only provides the "What."
To build a truly intelligent factory, your integrated OEE and CMMS must capture the Visibility Trifecta.
-
Machine Pulse: Millisecond cycle data from the PLC.
-
Human Context: Observations from the operator via a mobile interface.
-
Visual Proof: AI-ready video clips from the Inefficiencies Zoom-In module.
When these three dimensions are linked to a specific maintenance Work Order, you create a "Perfect Data Point" that teaches the system how to recognize and solve that problem autonomously in the future.
The Strategic ROI: ROI Today, Autonomy Tomorrow
For Paula, the business case for Fabrico is a "Dual-Yield" investment.
Yield 1 (Immediate): You reclaim 10-15% of your Hidden Factory capacity today by reducing Decision Latency and moving to Condition-Directed Tasks.
Yield 2 (Future): You build the 12-month data foundation required to deploy the Fabrico Assistant and Agent (Roadmap).
This future-proofing ensures that your multi-million dollar assets reach their full residual value while your facility moves toward a state of self-healing reliability.
Stop managing data silos. Start building your Master Data layer with a System of Action.
