We live in a world of ever-changing schedules and demands. Nowhere is this truer than in truss production and management. Tracking each phase of production is critical to success. Enter CS Producer™, a new cloud-based application that gives floor and roof truss manufacturers powerful tools to schedule and manage daily truss plant operations. By integrating seamlessly with CS Director™, Simpson Strong-Tie’s project management software, CS Producer provides real-time data analytics and paperless reports for deeper insight throughout the production line. CS Producer can be used to stage projects, schedule batches, and set due dates. By providing a comprehensive perspective into your truss plant operations, it also allows you to adjust stations and workflows, as well as monitor saw/table utilization, labor hours, and track board footage usage with reports generated during batch processing. A key benefit is that it’s easy to access the software through any web browser on a desktop or tablet as you move around the plant. [For images, See PDF or View in Full Issue.]
