SKF Industrial drives performance and cost savings by shaving 70% off a core workflow time.
SKF, a multinational industrial technology manufacturer in operation for more than 100 years, ran a ball-bearing inspection process at the tail end of manufacturing. Inspectors recorded their work on paper forms, then transferred the data from paper to reporting software on their laptops after a full day of work, a time-consuming process that upset the inspectors’ work-life balance.
Lextech collaborated with SKF to create a mobile experience that let inspectors submit data directly to the reporting software, eliminating the paper hand-off. The intuitive app integrated picture recording and annotation features that improved the quality and accuracy of recorded data.
Inspections that once took 30 minutes now take 9, a 70% time savings. A reporting process that once took days is now fast enough to enable real-time decisions that support SKF’s ability to sell products. Most importantly, it gave inspectors more time for high-value work, and more time with their families in the evenings.
“I no longer have to work nights entering data…(this app) gave me my family back.”
