DATA-TRACKING COMPUTER SYSTEMS have been implemented at DIFCO to provide the company with vital information.  Managers can identify production levels, uptime and downtime of process lines, and machine efficiencies. These figures are printed daily and serve as benchmarks in an attempt to increase productivity and efficiency. 

INTEGRATED COMPUTER SYSTEMS also track process line cost data on a real-time basis. Such information provides managers with an up-to-date cost analysis of each production line. Actual cost per machine cycle is computed and analyzed. 

DIFCO is committed to managing its costs in order to provide the customer with competitive pricing.
