NCAM

Overview

NCAM is a Manufacturing Execution System (MES) focused on OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) and shop-floor visibility. It helps teams understand what’s happening on their machines in near real-time, and—more importantly—why performance changes over time (downtime, slow cycles, micro-stops, operator context).

What it does

OEE dashboards to track availability, performance, and quality
Downtime tracking with categorization (planned vs unplanned, root-cause tags)
Shift / time-window analytics to compare lines, machines, or time periods
Operational reporting for continuous improvement workflows

My contributions (high level)

Dashboard UX: turning raw events into clear, actionable visualizations
Data modeling: structuring machine events, states, and aggregations so analytics stay fast
Workflow design: making it easy to go from “metric looks off” → “here’s the reason” → “here’s what we changed”

Why OEE needs a good product layer

OEE tooling often fails when it’s either:

Too technical (engineers can’t quickly use it day-to-day), or
Too shallow (nice charts, but no path to diagnosis).

NCAM is designed to bridge that gap by pairing metrics with context and a practical workflow for continuous improvement.
