LaunchStat Takes Automotive Industry By Storm
With Web-based Launch and Program Management Software

The pressure on manufacturing firms to do more, know more, and work more efficiently with few mistakes, continues to rise as competition stiffens in the US automotive marketplace.

In the absence of truly integrated internal systems, manufacturing managers are hamstrung from efficiently maximizing their operations for productivity and profitability. Too much time is spent on solving tooling and equipment problems and playing catch-up to meet deadlines and due dates.

LaunchStat streamlines internal processes to manage tools, equipment and tasks related to installation projects. Station planning work happens faster and more accurately than ever before. LaunchStat is the only system that has the power and flexibility to meet the unique and demanding needs of a vehicle launch program.

The Automotive Edition of LaunchStat was specifically designed to help OEMs such as Ford Motor Company manage all aspects associated with the launch of their E-150 such as:

  LaunchStat allows contacts to be shared within the launch group, providing a closed-loop system to boost employee/vendor accountability

  Tools and tasks are seamlessly connected to the corresponding facility locations.

  Manage resources, assignments, tools and equipment; track vendor participation.

  Unparalleled program tracking and process automation tools are there to insure that you're green at every launch phase.

  LaunchStat connects engineer teams and business partners to launch teams resulting in better visibility, control and accountability during all phases of the launch.

With LaunchStat, data can be maintained from multiple locations, whether on the plant floor or vendor sites, it all goes into the same place providing a real-time snapshot of launch status.

LaunchStat Pricing Information

The Automotive Edition of LaunchStat is currently available and companies can begin to manage manufacturing processes more efficiently using LaunchStat for about $1 per user per day.
