Manufacturing SiteHealth Check
Like a human health check, a site health check has value because it records the condition regularly.
Without assuming software purchase or replacement, we review CAD/CAM, NC data, DNC, scheduling, remnant management, paper/Excel workflows, licenses, and operator-by-operator usage to clarify strain and changes on the shop floor.
Value
Record the condition without purchase or replacement
First step
Free within roughly 8 hours total
Regular check
Previous comparison, changes, next review points
Regular Check
Do not wait until the operation breaks. Keep a regular record of the condition.
A human health check is not only for finding illness. It also leaves numbers and changes behind. Manufacturing sites need the same kind of regular review. Even when no software is purchased or replaced, recording the current condition creates useful decision material.
Ask about regular diagnosisThe diagnosis itself is an output
We leave a readable record of the current software structure, data flow, operator workflow, and strain points.
Changes become visible
You can compare whether paper, Excel, USB operation, dependency risks, or license shortages have increased or decreased.
Investment decisions become clearer
Before estimates or proposals, you can decide what to keep, what to fix, and what not to buy.
Before DX
Before major DX or tool adoption, first review the actual site condition.
Company-wide DX, AI, IoT, and specialized tools can be useful. But FACTOVO's diagnosis is not a purchase-led proposal. We review current operations and separate what should be introduced, what only needs to be organized, and what should simply be watched regularly.
Record the option not to buy
Clarify what current tools can handle, what can be solved operationally, and what should not be purchased.
Regular check from one process
Start ongoing condition checks from one process or workflow instead of the whole factory at once.
Share through reports
Leave records that can be used for internal explanation and handover instead of relying only on individual impressions.
Symptoms
If these symptoms exist, the site is ready for a health check.
Before discussing large systems, review the small operational frictions that occur every day and the changes since the last check.
Multiple tools have similar functions and it is unclear which one should be used
CAD/CAM or NC data handling differs depending on the person
License count or usage rules do not match actual site operations
The latest NC data or storage location differs by operator
Paper, Excel, and USB workflows remain, causing double entry or missed checks
It is unclear whether to adopt a new tool or improve the current workflow
There is no record of what improved or worsened since the previous review
Operations are not reviewed until the issue has already become large
Scope
What we review
We separate software, data, human operation, and changes since the previous check. Rather than reviewing the whole company at once, we narrow the scope first.
Software structure
Review overlap and usage rules across CAD/CAM, viewers, NC-related software, and scheduling tools.
Data flow
Organize where drawings, 3D data, NC data, Excel files, and paper forms are stored and passed along.
Operator workflow
Review each person's procedures, decision criteria, and training status to find dependency risks.
Licenses
Check users, concurrent use, maintenance, and versions against actual site needs.
NC and DNC
Review machine data transfer, USB operation, DNC, and network concerns.
Improvement priority
Separate what to fix now, what can wait, what should not be introduced, and what should be watched until the next check.
Plans
Free, paid, and regular diagnosis scopes are clearly separated.
The first step is easy to start. Site visits, reports for internal explanation, and regular checks with previous comparisons are handled with a defined scope.
Initial quick check
FreeIncludes interview, document review, online review, and nearby short on-site checks within roughly 8 hours total.
Output
Verbal explanation, brief memo, and next-step guidance
On-site survey
PaidReview the site, equipment, operator interviews, and actual data/software workflows.
Output
Survey summary, improvement candidates, and next proposal
Diagnosis report
PaidDocument improvement priorities, recommended avoidance measures, tool candidates, decisions not to buy, and points for the next check.
Output
A report suitable for internal explanation, approval, or handover
Regular diagnosis
Paid / ongoingEvery six months or once a year, review differences from the previous report, progress on improvements, and changes in site strain.
Output
Previous comparison, change points, and items to review next time
What we handle
- Diagnosis from one site, one department, one process, or one to two workflows
- Organization of CAD/CAM, NC data, DNC, scheduling, remnant management, and paper/Excel workflows
- Separating what can be fixed with current tools, what should be checked before buying, and what should be watched regularly
What we generally do not handle
- Creating a complete company-wide DX roadmap in one step
- Providing AI failure diagnosis or specialized movement tracking tools
- Large-scale surveys across multiple sites and departments at the same time
- Diagnosis intended only to sell software

Report creation
Regular review
Improvement and implementation support
Record
A diagnosis report is the medical chart of the site.
A report is not only a document for software purchase. By recording the condition, reasons for decisions, options that were not chosen, and points to review next time, decisions can be handed over even when people change.
Baseline condition
Make it possible to check later when, where, and what was stuck in the process.
Reasons for not proceeding
Keep the reasons why a purchase or replacement was not made as decision material.
Change tracking
At the next diagnosis, compare what improved and what newly worsened.
Internal alignment
Align conversations across the shop floor, managers, executives, and external vendors.
Report
What the report clarifies
When internal explanation or approval is needed, we document the current state, issues, priorities, and recommended avoidance measures. Even without purchase or replacement, the report has value as a regular record.
Ask about report creationCurrent state
Clarify which software, data, or operation is stuck and where.
Improvement priority
Separate what to fix now, what can wait, and what should not be introduced.
Recommended avoidance
Organize what should be checked before buying and what progress patterns should be avoided.
Next action
Clarify the path toward consultation, on-site survey, regular diagnosis, tool selection, or implementation support.
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
What is included in the free quick check?
We organize the current state and next steps through interviews, document review, online checks, or nearby short on-site checks. The guideline is roughly 8 hours total.
Can you visit the site?
It depends on region, scope, and schedule. Formal on-site surveys, distant visits, and multi-department reviews are paid.
Can you create a report?
A diagnosis report suitable for internal explanation or approval is created as a paid service. Scope and contents are confirmed in advance.
Do we need to buy software to consult you?
No. We can start by organizing current operations and issues. If not introducing a tool is better, we organize that as decision material.
Is diagnosis alone worth requesting?
Yes. Like a human health check, the value is not only finding abnormalities. Recording the condition, comparing changes, and keeping decision material are valuable by themselves.
Can you run regular diagnoses?
Yes. We can define the scope and review differences from the previous report every six months or once a year. Frequency and scope are adjusted to site burden.
Start small and record the actual site condition.
We help clarify whether to begin with diagnosis, on-site survey, report creation, regular diagnosis, or implementation support.
