We often hear about technology and automation as threats to the jobs held by people in industrial sectors – but it’s not about replacing workers, it’s about changing the nature of the work to be safer and more efficient.
- Technology unchains workers from repetitive tasks so they can bring more value with skills that can’t be done by a machine
- Augmented reality helps “share” generational tribal knowledge and encode it into the business processes.
- Access to information on demand means less time spent hunting for info – less wasted time.
- Digital technologies can unlock value from process data and combine it with worker’s knowledge for optimal performance across the plant.
