Root-Cause & Event Analysis
Understand why performance losses happen - not just that they happened. Intelycx CORE connects real-time events, downtime, and performance data into a single analytical context - helping teams identify root causes faster and prevent recurring losses.
Problem
The problem: data shows losses, but not the reason
Many factories can see performance losses in KPIs — but still struggle to explain them.
Common challenges include:
- Downtime logged inconsistently or after the fact
- Missing or vague reason codes
- Alarms and quality events isolated from performance data
- Manual root-cause analysis using spreadsheets
- Long delays between issue detection and understanding
As a result:
- The same problems repeat across shifts
- Improvement actions target symptoms, not causes
- Engineering and CI teams lack reliable context
- Valuable time is lost chasing incomplete information
Without context, KPIs raise questions – but don’t deliver answers.
Solution
The solution: events connected to performance context
Intelycx CORE brings events, downtime, alarms, and quality signals together with real-time KPIs in one system. Every performance loss is:
Time-stamped
Machine-specific
Shift-specific
Linked to events and operator actions
Solution
Capture events - automatically or manually
Root-Cause & Event Analysis works across mixed environments: both automated and manual ones.
A clear timeline of every shift
Intelycx CORE visualizes events in an intuitive, chronological timeline that shows:
- When machines stopped and restarted
- What events occurred during downtime
- How performance changed before and after events
- Who logged or resolved each issue
From patterns to root causes
By analyzing events in context, teams can:
- Identify recurring downtime reasons
- Spot patterns across machines, shifts, or products
- Distinguish isolated incidents from systemic issues
- Prioritize actions based on actual impact
Oversight
Built to support continuous improvement
Root-Cause & Event Analysis integrates directly with:
- OEE & KPI Analytics – to quantify impact
- Digital Lean & Continuous Improvement – to initiate and track actions
- Alerts and workflows – to respond immediately to critical events
This ensures that insights don’t stay in reports – they drive execution.
