Analytics & Reports

Stop Compiling Reports. Start Reading Them

Your factory generates data constantly. Sandhed's analytics platform turns it into pre-built reports, trend analysis, and scheduled deliveries so the right numbers reach the right people without anyone pulling a spreadsheet.

The Problem

Where Things Break Down

Every Monday morning starts the same way: someone pulls numbers from the PLC historian, cross-references downtime logs, formats a spreadsheet, and emails it to management. By the time the report lands, the data is already stale. Your operators cannot answer simple performance questions without running a custom query. Your managers cannot compare shifts without asking someone to build a chart. The data exists in your sensors, maintenance system, and warehouse platform. But turning it into something people can act on requires manual work every single time.

Reports are built manually every week

Someone downloads data from the historian, opens Excel, runs pivot tables, formats charts, and emails the result. The same report gets rebuilt from scratch every Monday because there is no automation in place.
4-8 hours per week on manual report generation

Trend analysis requires a data specialist

When management wants to know how OEE trended over the last quarter or which asset type had the most alerts, only one or two people know how to pull that data. If they are busy or on vacation, the question waits.
Single points of failure for operational visibility

Reports arrive too late to act on

Weekly reports summarize what happened last week. Monthly reports summarize last month. By the time the data reaches decision-makers, the problems have either gotten worse or the opportunity has passed.

Our Approach

What Sandhed Does Differently

Sandhed's analytics platform pulls from six data sources: sensor metrics, asset status, maintenance records, alerts, warehouse data, and RTLS zone tracking. Pre-built report types cover the most common questions: alert trends, metric comparisons across assets, location-based analysis, zone heatmaps, warehouse performance, and door analytics. You can schedule any report for automatic delivery on daily, weekly, or monthly cadences with email recipients. Data exports in JSON and CSV are available now, with PDF and Excel coming soon. The overview dashboard gives a KPI summary that updates in real time.

Pre-Built Report Types

Seven report types ready to use: threshold alert analysis, metric trend analysis, asset type comparison, location-based analysis, zone heatmaps, warehouse performance, and door analytics. Each report pulls from the relevant data sources and presents the results in a format that answers the question directly.

Scheduled Report Delivery

Set any report to deliver automatically on daily, weekly, or monthly schedules. Configure delivery time, format, and email recipients. Reports arrive in inboxes without anyone remembering to generate them. You can also trigger any report manually on demand.

Multi-Source Data Access

Reports pull from six data sources: sensor metrics from PLCs and IoT devices, asset operational status, maintenance and service records, alert history, warehouse inventory and movements, and RTLS zone occupancy. Mix sources in a single report to answer cross-functional questions.

Overview Dashboard with Live KPIs

A summary dashboard shows key metrics across your facility with configurable time ranges from 1 hour to 30 days. Quick links to relevant reports and one-click data export give you a starting point for any investigation.

FAQ

Common Questions

Seven report types are pre-built: threshold alert analysis (which alerts fired, how often, on which assets), metric trend analysis (how any sensor reading changed over time), asset type comparison (compare performance across similar equipment), location-based analysis (metrics grouped by floor plan zones), zone heatmaps (occupancy and activity by area), warehouse performance (inventory, movements, employee productivity), and door analytics (open/close events and duration patterns).

Yes. Any report can be scheduled for daily, weekly, or monthly delivery. You set the delivery time and timezone, choose the format (JSON or CSV, with PDF and Excel coming soon), and add email recipients. Scheduled reports run automatically and arrive in inboxes. You can trigger any scheduled report manually on demand.

Reports pull from six data sources: sensor metrics from PLCs and IoT devices (temperature, OEE, cycle time, and others), asset operational status (running, idle, warning, error, maintenance), service and maintenance records (service plans, work orders, compliance), alert history (triggered alerts and threshold breaches), warehouse data (inventory snapshots, movements, employee metrics), and RTLS zone tracking (zone occupancy and asset positioning).

Dashboards are live views that update in real time and are designed for continuous monitoring. Reports are analytical snapshots that answer specific questions about a defined time period. Dashboards show you what is happening now. Reports show you what happened over the last shift, day, week, or month. Reports can be scheduled for automatic delivery; dashboards are viewed on-screen.

Yes. Report data can be exported as JSON for programmatic consumption or CSV for spreadsheet analysis. PDF and Excel export formats are coming soon. The overview dashboard also has a direct export button. Scheduled reports can be configured to include data exports as attachments.
