Abstract
An automated system has been developed by the Industrial Engineering group at IBM´s System Products Division plant in Poughkeepsie, N.Y., to TRACK the serialized bases of any product by comparing customized targets to actual labor claims. The system expedites identification of the specific factor that contributed to an overtarget situation. The concepts of TRACK, which consist of Fortran IV and PL/1 programs under OS, are being incorporated into a plant-wide programming system called ATLAS (Actual Target Labor Auditing System}.
