Replace 80% of existing manual processes with a digital solution, eliminating human error and inefficiencies.
Challenges
A Fortune 2000 Food and Beverage manufacturer relied heavily on paper-based forms for production and quality checks. This approach created several operational inefficiencies, including:
- Inconsistent execution of forms, leading to data reliability issues.
- Delays in identifying whether forms were completed accurately or on time.
- Manual effort required to correlate data between production runs, quality checks, and batches.
Solution
To address these challenges, mode40 implemented a cloud-based digital transformation using Paper on Glass technology:
- Tablet Deployment: Replaced paper forms with digital equivalents accessed via tablets, enabling real-time data entry.
- Automated Dashboards: Leveraged cloud-based software to automatically generate dashboards that correlated data throughout the production process, from logged production data to quality checks.
- Real-Time Digital Forms: Deployed software to automatically generate and assign digital forms based on real-time process data, ensuring timely and accurate completion.
Outcomes
The Paper on Glass solution delivered measurable improvements in operational efficiency and data accuracy:
- Eliminated Manual Data Entry: Removed the need for resources to manually copy data into quality systems, reducing labor costs.
- Improved Data Accuracy: Forced completeness checks and set boundaries on input data, reducing errors and inconsistencies.
- Enhanced Traceability: Provided single, comprehensive reports showing the full lifecycle of a product, from production to quality checks.
- Financial Impact: Achieved over $1M in ROI within one year through increased yield, waste reduction, and repurposing of staff to higher-value activities.
