Operator Rounds

Operator Rounds can be digitized with the Augmented & Connected Worker increasing efficiency, guidance, and safety to guarantee a correct process execution.

What is are Operator Rounds?

Maintenance, Safety, and Quality technicians regularly conduct operator rounds to identify potential maintenance interventions and safety and compliance issues. Round implementation is done using paper checklists or notes, so workers who execute the round can write notes about what they see as out of the ordinary.

How are operator rounds implemented?
Technicians follow a predefined route regularly and inspect the previously selected points of interest. Managers keep track of progress and can change routes and points of interest on request. Paper-based operator rounds are made up of 4 main steps: Managers or supervisors create a checklist/form The operator executes the round and writes the observations on a paper sheet In case there are doubts, the worker must stop the journey and ask for guidance The worker delivers the checklist to their manager, who will then incorporate it into an ERP system or other management tool

How the Connected Worker platform can improve the procedure?

Route Definition

Workers can define the exact route and each of the steps of the rounds using a digital platform. Managers can access and monitor data from the process.
