We can develop your required content
Let us review your procedures and develop a tagging and visual identification system for critical components, We'll work with your operators and staff to develop SOP's that make sense and everyone agrees on. We'll then create a narrated video or documents with QR codes that you can post at the equipment.
We can MAKE IT VIRTUALLY ACCESSIBLE AT YOUR EQUIPMENT!
You may have critical operational or maintenance related SOP's. No one likes to have to look for paper or walk to an office to have something narrated on a video when they are already at the equipment. How about just holding up an IPad or a phone to a QR code on a machine?
