Standardize shop floor activities with Digital Guidance
Making a production shop floor paperless boosts efficiency, accuracy, and real-time visibility by switching from manual, paper-based methods to digital systems for handling work instructions, data capture, and performing quality checks.
We’ve already shown you our automated data capture and process control capabilities; now let’s take a look at Factbird’s Digital Guidance in the Connected Operations app, which helps standardize and digitize shop floor activities.
Using the Digital Form Builder, you can create SOPs, guides, checklists, and forms in just a few clicks, making them immediately available for frontline operations.
Examples include:
- In-line quality checks

Activities that were once managed with spreadsheets or paper can now be carried out digitally in Factbird.
