Automotive industries despite moving forwards with modern technology in manufacturing, often find themselves still using an outdated process for field engineers as they carry out certain tasks. Paper-based processes still plague the industry often causing multiple data entry. Technology services should also empower workforces, technology services are available that can streamline processes and support engineers creating an empowered productive workforce.

Data is an extremely valuable asset to many businesses if not the most valuable in the modern world. It is a key driver towards strategy and decision-making and provides visibility across multiple aspects of a business. Creating a single data silo for all data entry and understanding how to use this data efficiently will allow you to create powerful insights. Having a consistent data format will improve decision making and deliver a greater understanding of your business through a clearer view of all your data which often comes from automated data entry processes into a secure and organised silo such as Microsoft SharePoint.

 

To make your workforce more productive, you need to provide your users with the tools that will empower them which can boost their productivity. By supporting users with tools that can automate processes, improve team collaboration and use actionable data to make a workforce proactive instead of reactive.

Your workforce is at the core of your business. Working at the centre of a business can provide a view of a business that sometimes is not seen at the senior management level. Empowering your users with the technology and tools they need will enable them to solve business challenges to drive your business forward before it is an issue identified by management.

Technology can internally improve collaboration, simplify processes and provide valuable data that can be used for decision making. Externally this can provide a better service for businesses to their clients. Technology should be used as a benefit and distinguishing factor for a client when choosing between a business and its competitors. If a business can show how they can provide value through their service and use technology as a differentiator with this, it will actively help businesses to win new tenders.
