Gregory reports that he has seen “real improvement overnight”. A month prior to initiating UMT Audit he had tracked the defects of the group as a whole and calculated that the total group throw away averaged 12%. This error rate was cut in half to 6%, or a 94% accuracy rating. The UMT Audit solution enabled the team to track individual accuracy ratings.

Laubrass will be exhibiting at the Association for Manufacturing Excellence conference in Toronto October 22-24th 2013. Please come by our booth and take a spin at our new prize wheel for a chance to win a tablet! See more about the conference here: www.ame.org

Now you can easily program each element field so that it sends data to specific cells within your Excel template. It's really easy to do and saves you countless hours of data entry. You will of course still have access to all of the graphs, charts and reports in the StatUMT / StatAudit program as well.

For more information on how this new feature works, you can request the online training demo by contacting us at 1-866-526-8040 or send an email to info@laubrass.com with your email address requesting the Excel Training Demo and we can send you the link.

Laubrass' President and Vice President recently supported our partner Rapid Modeling in show casing TimeStudyRN at the annual IHI conference in Orlando. "We had a very positive reaction to the product, people are really starting to see the benefits of doing time studies in healthcare, and how easy it can be with this software," said Laubrass' President, Charles Brassard. TimeStudy RN is a software program that uses UmtPlus technology to specifically meet the work measurement demands of the healthcare industry.

“We are currently using UmtPlus software to test and modify our work standards in order to validate our work and system standards and ultimately use the results to eliminate non-value added work and increase productivity . The software allows us to gather work samples from 29 distribution centers and easily unify the data.

What used to take 4 to 8 weeks for a work sampling project now can be completed in less than a week.

I would definitely recommend the software to other organizations. UmtPlus is easy to use; it minimizes the work for field engineers and improves the quality of the data.”
