Connected workers
Improve worker safety, collaboration and engagement to drive new levels of efficiency and productivity for manufacturing.
Making connected workers a reality in manufacturing
Connected worker solutions are key to overcoming critical workforce challenges — worker shortages, retention issues, difficulty attracting new talent — and to achieving the efficiency and productivity needed to outperform the competition. But choosing the right connected worker strategy and solutions is crucial to successful implementations.
No matter what stage of evolution you’re at today, you need a cohesive approach that quickly delivers maximum business benefits and scales easily to extend those benefits throughout your operations.
The most successful connected worker implementations give workers access to new capabilities at the point where they need to make a decision or take an action. These implementations rely on three essential elements:
- Secure, always-on worker connectivity, especially for mission- and safety-critical applications
- Access to the right data and information at the right time so people, machines and processes can work as one
- A connected worker platform that provides the capabilities, capacity and performance you need to smoothly expand and accelerate your connected worker program
We help manufacturers of all sizes, and in all industries, get from here to there.
Start with use cases that address your biggest needs
The use cases that make the most sense for your operations will depend on your current challenges and long-term goals for digitalization.
When evaluating use cases, remember:
- Connected workers solutions seamlessly integrate with existing networks, systems, and technologies so there’s no need for a rip-and-replace approach.
- You can start with a pilot project and expand from there.
- Connected workers solutions meet the security requirements in mission-critical operational technology environments.
Here are a few examples of what’s possible with connected worker solutions available today.
Connect workers
Provide the network performance, scope and scale needed to reliably and securely connect workers, increase safety and support mission-critical operations.
Engage workers
Integrate workers with operational technology (OT) and IT assets and processes so they become an essential part of the system.
Empower workers
Give workers the right tools and information at the point of decision and action to enable more collaborative and innovative operational advances and continuous improvement.
