FactoryLogix Automatic NPI Schedule Reminders
Every Monday, WebRun opens FactoryLogix, checks every new product introduction program for milestones due this week, logs each program's status and owner to a Google Sheet, and posts your NPI channel a reminder naming what is due, who owns it, and anything already running late.
How do I keep new product introduction milestones from slipping?
WebRun checks FactoryLogix every Monday for new product introduction milestones due that week, logs each program's status and owner to a Google Sheet, and posts your NPI channel a Slack reminder naming what is due, who owns it, and anything already overdue, so a launch program never slips without the team seeing it coming.
- Every NPI milestone due this week reaches its owner before Monday's meeting
- Overdue milestones are called out first instead of buried in a status deck
- A running Google Sheet tracker shows program health at a glance
Built for contract electronics manufacturers · NPI program managers · process engineering teams · EMS product launch teams

How is each run configured?
Secure by default
Connect once, stays signed in
WebRun signs in once and keeps each session in a persistent environment, so every run picks up right where it left off.
Every action is checked against this policy before it runs.
Questions, answered
Does it move milestone dates or reassign owners?
No. WebRun only reads the milestones and owners already set up in FactoryLogix and reminds the team. Rescheduling or reassigning a milestone still happens as a person, inside FactoryLogix.
What counts as overdue?
Any milestone whose due date in FactoryLogix has already passed without being marked complete. Those are called out first in the Monday reminder so they get attention before the week gets busy.
Can it check more often than weekly?
Yes. Monday is the default for a weekly program review, but the schedule can run daily if your NPI programs move fast enough to need a daily check instead.
