Facing any of these challenges?
Pain points
Tool maintenance & calibration causing regulatory risk and delays
Tool maintenance and calibration is highly manual — tracking tools due for calibration, preventing use of overdue tools (with regulatory consequences), and recalling units worked on with overdue tools. Mismanagement of tools in calibration disrupts repairs, causing workflow delays and compliance issues.
Chemical management challenges
MROs struggle with chemical management — low stock levels create operational roadblocks, and various departments share chemicals without full stock visibility.
Searching for tools hurts shopfloor efficiency
Technicians spend significant time searching for tools on the shopfloor — delays of 30 minutes to 1 hour per work order that directly impact turnaround times and customer satisfaction.
Health, safety, and quality assurance
Strict, evolving regulations from authorities like the FAA and EASA force MROs to constantly adapt their processes — and ensuring worker health and safety, especially when handling hazardous materials, is critical.
How we solve it
Implement a real-time tracking system for tooling maintenance and calibration that automates tool tracking, schedules maintenance, and ensures regulatory compliance — with a preventative mechanism against overdue-tool use and automated calibration reminders, reducing regulatory risk and delays.
Implement a Chemical Inventory Management System using RFID and sensors for real-time visibility into chemical stock levels and usage across departments — ensuring adequate stock is always available and optimizing waste management.
Implement a digital tool tracking and management system using RFID and real-time location tracking that gives technicians the precise location of tools on the shopfloor — with proactive alerts and notifications to streamline maintenance and calibration.
Establish a comprehensive Health, Safety, and Quality Assurance (HSQA) program with regular training, audits, and process improvements — monitoring deviations from standard processes in real time and tracking non-compliance and corrective actions directly into visualization boards.
