Now COVID-19 has made it even more pressing to switch to digital, it is high time to say goodbye to manual, paper-based workflows in mass production factories. Digitization is the way forward to Industry 4.0. Because that’s the key to an Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) of world-class level (85%). In reality, most plants today have an OEE closer to 60%. We believe the solution lies in a digital manufacturing platform that supports all plant work processes and utilizes advanced technologies like Machine Learning, IoT, AI and mobile. In this whitepaper, we will show you how such a digital manufacturing platform could work by describing three manufacturing processes: Task Management, Deviation Management and Root Cause Analysis, and how digitalization of these processes can help you achieve an OEE of world-class level.

Geek+ is one of the world’s fastest growing logistics automation companies. Its technology offering, which is based around a core product range of four smart robotic systems – picking, moving, forklift and sorting robots; all underpinned by a highly intelligent AI-enabled software platform – offers a scalable alternative to traditional fixed automation machinery for eCommerce, industrial and manufacturing customers to invest in. Perhaps one of the most notable features of the Geek+ solution is its extreme scalability – both within a single fulfilment center or across a network of facilities – which can move in lockstep with business needs to meet rapid customer growth, or to meet sudden peaks and troughs caused by seasonal trends or unexpected crises.

In today’s world, manufacturers still depend heavily on the working hands of people. The skills that are in demand are extremely repetitive and potentially dangerous. With the added effect of current labor struggles, keeping talent in this environment is difficult to maintain. According to The Workforce Institute at UKG, 4 in 5 U.S. manufacturers are having difficulty keeping up with demand due to staff shortages and supply constraints1 . In real time, if a skilled worker decides not to come to work, eight hours of production time is wasted. These losses can be catastrophic for small to mid-sized manufacturers trying to keep up with demand while also attempting to outcompete global competitors.

Manufacturers, suppliers, and logistics companies are finding themselves at an interesting intersection today. Digital transformation, forcefully propelled atop any executive agendas by COVID-19, is no longer a trend or a hype. With more pressure from stakeholders, customers, and competitors, companies need to act fast and decidedly to kickstart their smart factory roadmap.

Digital operations are key to maintaining a competitive edge, but most organizations today operate with a mix of different levels of automation, from completely automated to fully manual processes. This variation across the value chain impacts efficiency and customer satisfaction, since an end-to-end process may move through several disjointed manual and semi-automated tasks to reach completion. Moving to a fully digital operation with end-to-end intelligent automation can significantly improve existing business operations, while enabling true transformation: the creation of completely new business models that allow an organization to outperform the competition and expand into new markets.
