Improve operations

Manufacturing sensors and alerts

Protect your production time

Capture early warning signs from critical equipment so you can act fast. Monitor temperatures, vibrations, and operating conditions and flag issues early before they turn into breakdowns.
Turn risk alerts into clear maintenance action and trigger follow-up work automatically. Assign owners, set priorities, and track due dates so nothing gets missed.

Remove blind spots and hit uptime targets

Align inspections and checks across every site. Roll out the same machine and equipment inspections so performance, risks, and compliance are easy to compare from one factory to the next.
Understand what equipment you have, where it’s located, and what needs attention. Keep service history, risk levels, and open issues in one place so teams aren’t chasing information.
Focus time and resources where they matter most. Use simple dashboards to surface key metrics like Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE), throughput, and schedule compliance line or site in real time.

Manufacturing issues to improvement

Run every machine to the same high standard

Turn equipment processes into skills people can use. Break down complex equipment tasks into short, targeted training and on‑the‑job checks so operators know what good looks like and can prove they’re doing it right.
Keep standards live, not static. Push updates with clear acknowledgement so teams know what’s changed and why, even as equipment or processes improve.

The SafetyCulture platform is the life-blood of our quality and safety management systems. We are using it to report on everything—from QHSE (Quality Health Safety Environment) field audits, PPE (Personal Protective Equipment) inspections, contractor onboarding, equipment service and repair templates, asset tracking— along with all of our permits to work.

Director, Quality, Health and Safety Environment (QHSE), BOS Solutions
