SystemEyes™ is a web-based measurement tool that allows the user to build measures using a simple interface. The application then collects the measurement data from multiple people defined by the user, and reports it to whoever you wish to receive it.

There are 3 different pricing levels for SystemEyes™:

  • Value Plan - $19/month
  • Power Plan - $49/month
  • Unlimited Plan - $99/month
  • The basic difference between the plans is the number of Business Units they can support. The Value Plan is limited to 3 Business Units, the Power Plan is limited to 20 Business Units and the Unlimited Plan is well, unlimited.

    Well, that’s a secret!

    Without giving away our special recipe, it is a web-based application that helps busy managers eliminate the hardship of collecting measurement data.

    SystemEyes™ provides a way to build a standard way to calculate and collect measures, and then gives the user the ability to assign the measures to a large number of people who have the information.

    SystemEyes™ then emails the responsible parties with requests to input the required data. Once they enter the information, SystemEyes™ stops bothering them.

    Last, the application builds a nicely formatted report, and sends it to whoever you want to receive it.

    You can register for a subscription to SystemEyes™ on the site. Just click on the Products menu, and select SystemEyes™.

    SystemEyes™ User Guide 1.0

    Business Units are designed to allow the user to divide the measures into logical groups, based on their own needs. The term “Business Unit” is a loose term in this case, because SystemEyes™ offers so much flexibility.

    Some examples of Business Unit usage:

  • Plant 1, Plant 2, Plant 3 etc...
  • Dept. 1, Dept. 2, Dept. 3 etc...
  • Team 1, Team 2, Team 3 etc...
  • Project 1, Project 2, Project 3 etc...
  • Building 102, Building 203, Building 5 etc...
  • Bob, Joe, Mary, Jim, Kathy etc...
  • Production, Maintenance, Utilities, Facilities, Grounds etc...
  • The possibilities are endless
  • Multiple Choice
  • YES/NO
  • Direct User Entry (Numerical)
  • The application allows a full range of options for frequency, timing and units for measures. It also has a simple equation editor, so you can build complicated mathematical calculations into the measures that do not require the person reporting the data to do any math!

    HTML (Hypertext Markup Language).

    The reports are sent via email, and can be printed, saved, converted to other formats etc...

    VISA, MasterCard or American Express cards are all acceptable.

    You simply set up a subscription account on our site, and our billing application will automatically charge your card every month on the appropriate date. The application will remain accessible to you as long as the payment is made.

    Your account will be deactivated if payment is not received, or you cancel your subscription. There is no refund for partial months unused for a subscription.

    By email, to a list of recipients that you define. This list can be edited at any time, and the administrative user can edit the reports before SystemEyes™ releases them.

    SystemEyes™ sends the assigned reporters an email, requesting the data from them. The email is formatted such that each reporter gets only the measures that they are responsible to report.

    The measures are added by clicking a link in the email. The reporter then enters the result in the field provided, and clicks a "Submit" button. The data is stored in SystemEyes™ for reporting.

    All mathematical operations occur inside SystemEyes™ with no user intervention.

    We continually find new uses for SystemEyes™.

    Originally, the application was designed to support maintenance and reliability managers and professionals, who have always had a heavy load of measures to support.

    During development of SystemEyes™, we found out that it worked great for measuring our own internal business activities.

    Then, the floodgates were open! People started coming up with novel approaches to measuring all kinds of things!

    Here are some examples:

  • Maintenance measures for planning, scheduling, execution, cost per unit of production, rework, downtime, PM, PdM etc...
  • Production volume per shift
  • Tracking sales by individual salespeople
  • Tracking vehicle mileage for a fleet of trucks
  • Tracking weight loss, exercise, calories consumed (not too fun)
  • Tracking completion of preventive maintenance tasks
  • Tracking completion of to-do items
  • Budget compliance
  • Reminders to do things you commonly forget
  • Tracking hours of operation on equipment
  • More...
  • No. The only fee you pay is the monthly access fee for your selected package. Since the application is web-based, we constantly upgrade and fine-tune it for you. As new features and improvements are added, you get them immediately at no additional cost.

    Sure. It can track anything that can be communicated as a numerical measure, a YES/NO question or a multiple choice list. So, if you wanted to track if the rounds were done, you can tell SystemEyes™ to send an email to whomever you wish, asking them to report it.

    The only limitation is that the application can only ask for input on a daily, weekly, monthly, annual or specified date basis. So, if you want to measure events on an hour-by-hour basis, you would have to build a measure for each event for that particular day. For example, if you do rounds at 8am and 2pm, the email measure request for each time will need to be built.

    This is a one-time event, as SystemEyes™ will ask for the measure forever if you wish, or it can be told to stop after a period of time (say, 1 year).

    Yes, of course. We are working furiously to improve every product we offer, and your input is valuable to us. Please send any input to us at info@Nobreakdowns.com, and we will seriously review it to see if we can add it to the product.
