Complete Shift Reporting for Manufacturing

Capture everything that happens on each shift - downtime, quality issues, output, manning, material shortages. Turn shift data into actionable insights with Pareto charts and dashboards.

Know What Really Happened on Every Shift

Paper shift logs get lost, can't be searched, and never get analysed. NS-SMS captures shift information digitally, making it searchable, reportable, and actionable. See patterns, identify root causes, and drive continuous improvement.

  • Digital shift log replaces paper records
  • Track downtime with categorised reason codes
  • Record quality issues with photos and details
  • Pareto charts reveal your biggest losses
  • Dashboard gives management instant visibility
