Improve quality and your bottom line

Ensure everyone follows best practices and requirements for equipment reliability using factory maintenance checklists. With photo annotation and calculations in inspections, it’s easy for frontline teams to capture and share noncompliant areas, giving management a clear view of what’s happening on the floor. With all your data in one place, you can quickly pinpoint problem areas and come up with solutions before they cause bigger problems.

“Now auditors can finish their near miss reports, take pictures and it all incorporates into one document. You can send it right from the field.”

Efficiently manage factory assets

Establish a register of machinery and equipment used in production as part of overseeing day-to-day operations. Gain a better understanding of how they’re being used and maintained across different floors using sensors and asset location tracking devices. Keep a digital record of routine maintenance activities to refer to for future work orders and minimize equipment downtime.

Strengthen maintenance strategies

Keep tools and equipment in top condition at all times with a robust, data-backed maintenance plan. Leverage data from submitted reports and asset tracking systems to create and adjust workflows according to factory and equipment needs. Assign corrective actions based on identified issues and improve calibration for equipment maintenance.
