With over 100 manufacturing facilities across North America, Georgia-Pacific's operations are large-scale, multi-process environments producing thousands of tons of products daily. Managing the efficiency and reliability of these operations requires sophisticated tools for process monitoring and data analysis.

Since 2009, dataPARC has played a crucial role in addressing operational challenges at various Georgia-Pacific facilities. Initial projects at the Wauna Mill in Oregon laid the foundation for a long-term partnership, showcasing dataPARC’s ability to enhance process visibility, streamline operations, and boost production efficiency. By standardizing on dataPARC’s PARCview platform, Georgia-Pacific aims to achieve consistent, high-quality operating data across their containerboard and cellulose manufacturing groups.

Strategic Partnership for Continuous Improvement

"Partnering with dataPARC has allowed us to leverage advanced tools for continuous improvement and process optimization," said Bob Diercks, Team Leader - Optimization of Process Performance at Georgia-Pacific’s Brewton, Alabama, Mill. "The PARCview platform provides us with critical insights and analytics capabilities, enabling us to make data-driven decisions that significantly impact our operational efficiency."

"We are excited to continue building on our strong relationship with Georgia-Pacific," said Alex Tate, Director of Sales - Americas at dataPARC. "We look forward to working together and supporting Georgia-Pacific’s commitment to operational excellence."

The decision to standardize on PARCview was driven by several key factors:

The implementation of PARCview within Georgia-Pacific’s operations integrates various data sources, including process data, vibration data, downtime indicators, quality and lab data, and asset hierarchies. This holistic approach to monitoring complex assets enables Georgia-Pacific to streamline performance monitoring and significantly reduce operational inefficiencies.

By deploying PARCview, manufacturing facilities can experience enhanced process visibility, improved decision-making, and increased operational efficiency. This comprehensive integration supports the company’s commitment to maintaining optimal manufacturing conditions and maximizing the life of their critical assets.

The collaboration between Georgia-Pacific and dataPARC represents a shared commitment to leveraging advanced analytics and data integration for continuous operational improvement. Both companies are eager to explore new opportunities and innovative solutions that drive sustainability and operational excellence.
