Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

In many manufacturing operations, knowledge about processes, machine statuses, and best practices is scattered across numerous systems. Documentation is stored in different locations, important information is hidden in tickets or emails, and valuable expertise often exists only in the minds of individual employees. This fragmentation causes delays, hinders analysis, increases response times, and raises the effort required for training and knowledge transfer. 

iTAC.CATi resolves this by providing a centralized, AI-powered knowledge base that intelligently links documents, MES data, SOPs, tickets, and expert knowledge. The Model Control Platform acts as a secure integration layer that merges information from various systems in a contextualized manner and makes it accessible in natural language.

 CATi.Docs ensures a unified, versioned, and intuitively searchable documentation landscape. CATi.Pro enables precise production and quality data queries without technical expertise. CATi.Next supports the shopfloor directly by categorizing issues faster, suggesting appropriate actions, and automatically filling tickets with the correct context data. Through this intelligent linking of knowledge, iTAC.CATi reduces search times, prevents information loss, and improves responsiveness and process reliability. Companies benefit from clearer processes, more efficient collaboration, and a learning production environment that continues to evolve.
