Crunching the numbers
Here’s just a handful of ways the mPS has improved people management for our customers.
How mPS tools work to
improve people management
The mPS toolkit features modules designed specifically to improve operator experience, skill, and performance.
Visual Standard
What is it?
A single, highly configurable source of multi-media work instructions, available across devices.
How it improves people management:
Clear, accessible standards
Reduce operator interpretation and ensure every work station has up-to-date standards instantly available to consult.
Improved adherence
Workers following the visual work instructions perform more predictably, and reduce non-conformities.
Consistency across areas and plants
Once established, Visual Standard is highly scalable between lines, areas, and plants.
Standard Work Audit
What is it?
A centralized audit module, used to verify safety and standard work, linked to Visual Standard.
How it improves people management:
Improved safety protocols
By starting every audit with safety checks, you help prevent HSE blind spots that lead to accidents and injuries.
Identify process waste
Use cycle-time insights to understand where and how to optimize standard processes.
Link improvement ideas to audits
Operators can attach improvement ideas directly to standard work audits, allowing you to create a linked record for evaluation.
Improvement Ideas
What is it?
A way for frontline operators to flag potential improvements to processes, ensuring you have a steady flow of ideas, and an engaged workforce behind them.
How it improves people management:
Ideas fresh from the front
Those with first-hand experience of your standards and work instructions are best placed to suggest improvements, and Improvement Ideas makes it easy.
Continuous improvement culture
As workers contribute their ideas, and gain credit for them, they are bought into a culture of continuous improvement; vital for lean success.
A fully traceable record
Any measure you take from the store of improvement ideas your shop floor generates is fully traceable, giving you a record of best practice that scales.
Skill Matrix
What is it?
A digital skills and versatility matrix to manage training, coverage, and competency by role.
How it improves people management:
Reduce quality errors
Tasks are now matched with qualified, validated operators, found through an up-to-date record of current competencies.
Closing skill gaps
Once a skill gap is identified, use the module to drive targeted training to close it.
Improved planning, reduced risk
In case of absence or turnover, you can ensure that only those with the correct training level occupy the vacancy, reducing the risk of accidents.
