Manufacturing decisions require understanding both what's happening now and what could happen next. FactoryLogix transforms production data into contextualized manufacturing intelligence. Simio builds on that foundation by evaluating what-if scenarios, validating operational decisions, and helping manufacturers optimize performance before changes reach the factory floor.
Manufacturing Intelligence That Gets Smarter Over Time
Everything Needed to Understand and Act Across the Platform
Manufacturing intelligence isn't just about seeing what's happening. It's about understanding why it's happening, anticipating what's likely to happen next, and responding before small issues become larger problems. FactoryLogix and Simio work together to turn operational data into timely, informed action.
Real-Time Dashboards & Reporting
Build dashboards and reports yourself, without SQL, scripting, or a request to IT, using live data pulled straight from the floor.
Automated Detection & Response
Configure rules that detect shortages, quality conditions, or tooling issues automatically, and trigger an alert, an escalation, or a line stoppage before a person has to notice.
Root-Cause Data Exploration
Filter, sort, and traverse manufacturing data graphically for the moments you don't yet know what you're looking for, no database knowledge required.
Prove What FactoryLogix Prevents
Automated reports quantify every non-conforming material, defective unit, and unqualified action the system caught before it became a problem, giving executives a clear, measurable record of loss avoided.
Predict Operational Performance
Evaluate production scenarios, identify bottlenecks, forecast throughput, and understand the impact of operational changes before they reach the factory floor.
See Where Defects Actually Cluster
Color-coded heat maps show exactly where defects concentrate on the product, positionally and geometrically, so patterns that would take hours to spot in a spreadsheet are visible at a glance.
Operational Intelligence That Drives Action
Every part of the Aegis platform feeds this pillar: execution data from the floor, contextualized data from every connected machine, and simulated outcomes from Simio. Understand & Act is where all of it becomes something a person, or the system itself, can act on.
Configure how the system responds to shortages, quality conditions, tooling limits, and more, so alerts, escalations, or automatic line stoppages happen without waiting for someone to notice.
Automated reports quantify exactly what FactoryLogix prevented: blocked non-conforming material, stopped defective units, caught unqualified operator actions, flagged barcode errors, and rejected invalid data entries, all reportable directly to executive management.
Built directly from FactoryLogix orders, routings, and work-in-process (WIP) data, Simio gives planners and supervisors a forecast of expected performance and exactly where a plan carries risk, with no modeling background needed.
Explore manufacturing information in context by connecting production events, materials, quality records, operators, engineering changes, and machine activity to accelerate investigations and uncover the true source of recurring issues.
Turn Manufacturing Data Into Better Decisions
Understanding what's happening, and what's likely to happen next, shouldn't depend on which system you're logged into. FactoryLogix and Simio work from connected data, so insight and action stay in step across execution, planning, and simulation.
Get the Answer Without Filing a Ticket
The people closest to a problem are usually the ones who understand it best. FactoryLogix lets them build the dashboard, report, or query they need themselves, cutting the distance between a question and an answer.

Let the System Catch What a Person Might Miss
Not every response should wait for someone to see a dashboard. The Active Rules Engine watches for material shortages, quality conditions, tooling limits, and more, and can trigger an alert, an escalation, or an automatic line stoppage the moment a condition is met.

Know Where a Schedule Carries Risk, Without Building a Model
A single schedule looks confident on paper but says nothing about what could go wrong. Simio auto-generates a digital twin directly from FactoryLogix orders, routings, and WIP data, so planners and supervisors get realistic throughput projections and early bottleneck warnings without ever touching a simulation model.

Turn Prevented Problems Into a Business Case
Every non-conforming material blocked, defective unit stopped, and uncertified action caught is value FactoryLogix delivered that never shows up on a financial statement, until now. Automated loss prevention reports quantify these events over time, by category, operator, and workstation, giving executive management clear, measurable proof of what the system is protecting the business from.
