Digital workshop: unlocking and retrieving information

From the drawing board to modeling on the PC, to eventually a paperless workplace. It is an essential part of continuously improving and optimizing the way we work. Just consider how much time, money and energy is lost by transferring information to each other on paper. By definition, people are behind the times, which encourages errors and lack of insight.

Unlocking information, such as drawings or 3D models, in a workshop or on the construction site is not very exciting when it comes to technology. What is of much greater interest is what a digital workshop means for the way you work. So this is about much more than working paperless.

It offers opportunities not only to send information to people at the end of the chain (in the workshop or on the job site), but also, on the contrary, to retrieve a great deal of information. There is a wealth of relevant steering information hidden there. Just think how much work takes place 'out-of-sight'. And it is precisely those places where 'feeling' is leading about how things are going and the actual information with the corresponding insight is missing. Retrieving information from the users is much more difficult. Especially when that very information is the basis for steering with, and gaining better insight from, an ERP solution.

In today's digital age, smartphones and tablets are becoming increasingly important as they support people on the shop floor in getting but also returning information. It ensures that the software provides even more insight about the operations. Through the digital workshop - fully integrated with the work preparation of the project - digital drawings are accessed. Hours are registered immediately, deviations are passed on and progress is made actual. Insight from flat drawings to 3D models.
