Challenge	Dinel Schneider Electric, a leading manufacturer of sensor technology, was facing challenges with their traditional paper-based work instruction system. The paper instructions were hard to manage, quickly became outdated, and were not efficient for a rapidly evolving corporation. The heavy reliance on text-based instructions made it difficult for operators to quickly understand their tasks and responsibilities. The company was seeking a solution to enhance the quality of their products and the efficacy of their workforce. They needed a system that could keep up with the pace of their innovation and provide clear, up-to-date instructions to their operators. Read More
About Customer	Dinel Schneider Electric is a global leader in sensor technology, providing solutions that facilitate data centers, smart homes, and sustainable buildings. The company is committed to empowering people to make the most of their energy and resources around the world. They are dedicated to innovation and sustainable practices, constantly seeking ways to improve their products and processes. Their vision led them to advance their production line with VKS, a work instruction software, as part of their digital transformation journey. Read More
Solution	Dinel Schneider Electric chose to incorporate VKS, a work instruction software, into their operation. This digital tool helped to standardize their processes, making complex tasks manageable and empowering their workforce. The software allowed for instant updates to work instructions, eliminating the need for physical paper instructions. It also facilitated the capturing, storing, and sharing of tribal knowledge, making it easy for employees to find instructions and perform tasks with accuracy and precision. The software also leverages the power of videos, providing greater context and interaction for workers. Dinel Schneider Electric has already integrated VKS into 75% of their processes and plans to have it running on 100% of their production lines in the near future. Read More Log in to view content

Solution

Dinel Schneider Electric chose to incorporate VKS, a work instruction software, into their operation. This digital tool helped to standardize their processes, making complex tasks manageable and empowering their workforce. The software allowed for instant updates to work instructions, eliminating the need for physical paper instructions. It also facilitated the capturing, storing, and sharing of tribal knowledge, making it easy for employees to find instructions and perform tasks with accuracy and precision. The software also leverages the power of videos, providing greater context and interaction for workers. Dinel Schneider Electric has already integrated VKS into 75% of their processes and plans to have it running on 100% of their production lines in the near future.

Impact #1	The implementation of VKS has resulted in a more independent and resilient workforce at Dinel Schneider Electric. The software's interactive platform and use of videos have helped employees quickly understand their tasks and responsibilities, boosting their confidence and widening their skills. The digital standardized processes have reduced dependence on a few seasoned employees or supervisors, allowing the team to quickly fill in when an experienced operator is absent. The company has also seen a positive response from employees, with many requesting to integrate VKS into more processes. The use of VKS has also supported Dinel Schneider Electric's commitment to the environment by eliminating wasteful paper processes and improving operational efficiency.
