Proceedix’s digital work instructions and inspection platform enable business experts to easily create and manage enterprise workflows in a “no code” environment. Work instructions, inspection checklists, and SOPs (standard operating procedures) can efficiently be executed with step-by-step visual guidance. Audit trails and alerts ensure that needed work is performed correctly and on time. As a result, companies eliminate paper, improve product and process quality, reduce labor hours required to perform operational and training tasks, and increase transparency while assuring 100% compliance.
“2021 studies by LNS Research & Deloitte found that 82% of manufacturers cite workforce shortages as the current top business risk and they will continue to face ongoing workforce recruiting and retention issues. As a result, virtually every manufacturing segment is interested in a digitally enabled workforce,” said Dominic Gallello, CEO of Symphony Industrial AI. “The Proceedix capability is a natural next step for the Symphony Industrial AI plant performance and digital manufacturing solutions. Our applications raise alerts, and Proceedix provides the byte-sized work instructions for people in the plant to act.”
