Executive Perspective

Group Level
“… There is an impact on equipment uptime, production throughput, product quality and the safety of the working environment.”

Group Level
“Previously, those who were managing the QRQC meetings had to take the notes, go back to their computer, and fill the spreadsheet with the actions. You record it, you print it, and you come back to the whiteboard. When you do that directly digitally, you save half an hour per day, minimum.”
