Workforce Optimization

Today’s modern environment has created new knowledge and skill requirements within the workplace. The workforce optimization process is an integral part of the supply chain that drives a manufacturing company’s business strategies, defines its culture and improves its bottom line. Advances in computers and robotics have decreased the need for human labor, while the need for employees with high technical skills, communication skills and problem-solving skills has increased. Ironically, many factories have highly automated production machinery but very paper-intensive business processes. At the same time, companies are under pressure for more rapid product introductions, adaptation to changing market conditions and continuous improvement to optimize costs, quality and efficiency.

We had no idea which. So now we're able to understand how they using our system. And are they confirming the data as we go.”

Shift handovers, work instructions, electronic logbooks

In many industries, supervisors and plant floor operators operate “in the dark.” They document their daily activities using paper operations logbooks and shift logs. They communicate important instructions and procedures verbally. When shifts are over, this information, which is a critical part of the shift handover process, is often lost.
