Machine monitoring and production tracking software

I was wondering if anyone could point me toward some solid software for tracking batch production machines. I’m specifically looking for something that can handle machine productivity metrics—you know, things like calculating OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness). My main goal is to really dig into why we're seeing downtime so we can actually use those insights to boost our efficiency. We're looking at a setup with anything from a handful of machines up to several dozen, and I’d love to have them all connected to a single database. That way, it would be super easy to run comparisons, analyze the data side-by-side, and ultimately work on improving our ROI. Does anyone know what kind of software major American manufacturing firms typically lean on, and what kind of results they usually see from implementing them?
Thanks so much!
We build those kinds of systems. Depending on the scale and whether you need to upgrade your L1 setup (communication cards, specific PLC types, etc.), a custom system can run between $160k and $220k. This includes integration with your L1 and ERP, industry-specific optimizations, energy consumption monitoring, individual component tracking, CMMS, trend analysis, and more.
