Glartek
Augment your Industry with a new Reality
COMPANY BACKGROUND
Industry 4.0 brought fast changes to the industrial landscape all over the world. The sector became more modern, dynamic, and more innovative.
Sotécnica provides maintenance services for a wide class of clients. With more than 65 years, the company has 6 sites in Portugal and has a presence in three countries around the world.
THE CHALLENGE
Inserted in a sector with a high human resources turnover, keeping knowledge and experience inside the company proved to be costly and time consuming. The challenge was demanding: How to guarantee our clients satisfaction with no error and fast maintenance processes?
Travels between buildings were frequent, and solving problems was no easy task. The major impacts were:
Response time
Slow response time to any problem reported by front-line workers or customers
Operations' safety
Front-line workers' safety is compromised due to the lack of know-how
Continuous improvement
Lack of continuous improvement measures due to uncentralized data and lack of automated analytics
THE SOLUTION
The main goal was to provide support to the workforce, so they could execute standalone tasks, reducing unnecessary costs and time.
The solution was based on four pillars:
- One platform with a data management system
- Preventive rounds with Augmented Reality (AR) support
- Execution proof and control
- Eliminate bureaucracy
With Glartek, we reduced training efforts and guaranteed greater flexibility in assigning maintenance tasks to different employees. At the same time, field employees perform tasks with greater speed and quality and managers can focus on the return generated by the tasks.
