Bonanza Associates is a leader in providing tools that help manufacturing facilities move to a new level of productivity improvement and production efficiency. Our predictive modeling software is one of the foundational pillars for advanced “Smart Manufacturing” systems. We strive to make Prospector the most practical, user-friendly, operations-directed software package on the market today. Bonanza’s software and services position manufacturers for the coming revolution in plant automation that will ultimately include artificial intelligence (AI), advanced process controls, and new sensor technology. Predictive modeling is proven technology that can deliver real benefits today, while ensuring forwards compatibility. We’re proud that Prospector is leading the way. We’ve been working with pulp and paper manufacturing plants for over 25 years, saving each facility an average of $1MM annually by enabling better coordination and collaboration across shifts and throughout the chain of command. We have recently expanded into the Fuel Ethanol industry, and the results are quite promising. Our clients are experiencing a return on investment of less than six months. Making data-driven decisions every day in manufacturing facilities is always important, but it is critical to survival in large plants making products for commodity markets. Predictive modeling leverages the advances companies have made by adopting Lean Six Sigma and other productivity-enhancing tools and techniques, and takes them to a new level. We enable our clients to manage the future, rather than react to it! A common response from our customers is: We’re finally using our data to look FORWARD instead of only looking backwards!
