Case Study: What if Your Frontline Had 20 Extra Hours a Week?
A Fortune 500 construction manufacturer recently implemented Dozuki to manage their training, with transformative results. The company’s Document Control Specialists faced a complex, multi-step process to update and distribute work instructions across production lines.
This process consumed significant time and resources. Here’s an overview of that process, which took 2-3 days to complete.
The Manual Way:
- Step 1 – Receive Update Requests: Changes were triggered by customer demands or part revisions, often coming in various formats.
- Step 2 – Document Revision: Specialists manually updated documents
- Step 3 – Printing: Multiple copies of the updated instructions were printed for different production lines.
- Step 4 – Sign-Off Collection: The revised documents required approval from multiple stakeholders, involving collecting physical signatures.
- Step 5 – Distribution: Updated documents were distributed to affected lines, often through manual handovers.
Compare that to the new process with Dozuki:
- Step 1 – Instant Updates: The Document Control Specialist inputs the changes directly into Dozuki, where the system automatically updates the work instructions, routes them for digital approval, and makes them instantly available.
By eliminating unnecessary steps, Dozuki saved the company 20 hours of work each week, which was a significant efficiency gain. At $25 per hour, this translated to $26,000 in annual savings.
The company saved even more, when factoring in additional benefits like improved accuracy, reduced errors, and enhanced operational flexibility.
