Many manufacturers underutilize a major asset - their people. Without visibility into workforce capacity constraints and capabilities, assignments end up driven by gut instinct rather than data-driven decisions. The fallout? Suboptimal productivity, idle workers, delayed deliveries.

By leveraging technologies HESH to codify processes, track patterns, and illuminate bottlenecks in granular detail, managers can match talent to tasks for peak performance while automating the logistics hassles of manual scheduling.

Quantifying Individual Output

Takt time measures reveal throughput rates for processes. But determining sustainable pace for each employee provides insight into relative efficiencies that better inform planning. Once established, optimal assignments and goals become apparent.

Rating Multi-Dimensional Skills

Nuanced platforms like HESH allow managers to define diverse competencies from machine proficiencies to quality control capabilities needed across production workflows. Tagging workers with applicable skill sets and ranking proficiency guides placement decisions. Gaps spotlight upskilling needs.

Automating Smart Assignments

Manually juggling hundreds of competing assignments across a multidimensional talent pool inevitably leads to oversights. HESH’s real-time automated task scheduler considers worker output speeds, expertise grades, availability constraints and more to intelligently optimize allocation for on-time order completion.

The Future of Work is Data-Driven

While hands-on leadership will never lose relevance on the shop floor, leveraging data to amplify every worker’s strengths is key to dominating the future of manufacturing through enhanced productivity and masterful management.
