A new application has launched that aims to improve operational performance in manufacturing, offering real-time visibility into labour data.
Workforce Dimensions by Kronos provides real-time access to detailed labour activity data that enables manufacturers to quickly respond to production issues, manage labour costs, and measure performance against established metrics such as productivity and efficiency.
“While technology is the foundation of digital transformation, people are the driving force in manufacturing,” says Kylene Zenk, director, manufacturing practice, Kronos. “It’s the intersection of the two that will foster the future of work. Workforce Dimensions has the power to transform manufacturing operations by empowering employees and managers alike with real-time information to drive intelligent decision making and improved operational performance.”
Managers gain real-time visibility into their operation – including work-in-progress (WIP) and actual labour costs – so they can improve job costing accuracy and strategic planning to meet production goals in a more profitable and efficient manner.
Frontline employees benefit from a simplified, mobile-first user experience. New smart forms streamline data entry, while personalised dashboards provide access to tools and information including personalised activity data, schedules, timecards, and the ability to easily submit shift-swap and time-off requests.
