Time saved in streamlining communicaton

00:00 - 00:12
Just the quality department alone, how long it used to take to handwrite cards that's substantial, like it would take you, I mean if you had to say we scrapped out a special, each special needs individually scrapped out because that material needs to be removed from inventory.

00:12 - 00:19
So you'd write 15 remake cards. I mean that could take you an hour and a half, compared to if you're using your fingers on a keyboard, typing it into Unifize.

00:19 - 00:31
I mean, 10 minutes, 15 minutes for 15 cards. So right there alone, you're saving a bunch of time and hand cramps too, you know, like just writing and writing and writing all day. That's unfortunate.

00:31 - 00:42
Yeah the card was strictly just a recordkeeping thing like it was we had it filed in one place and then put it into like It was crazy how many different steps went into just writing a remake card, Right?

00:42 - 00:46
Because then you'd have to get everybody on board, people over here, you'd have to remove it from inventory.

00:46 - 00:52
People on the floor would have to run it. We would have to write it. It would have to get turned back in. I'd have to put in those numbers.

00:52 - 01:05
Compared to now, it's literally just like everybody who ever needs to be on a conversation is on a conversation, right? So if I make a remake card and the only thing that's on it is laser, I'm going to tag the three laser guys in it and that's it.

01:05 - 01:14
Like our quality department’s always tagged on all of them but it definitely reduces the time of me handwriting a card, walking it down there and being like, yeah, I'll get to when I get to it instead of it's just like right there.

01:14 - 01:17
It's like, yeah, we can run that right now. We can run it real quick.

01:17 - 01:22
I have a nest right here instead of like, are they? Because not everybody is exactly where they are all the time, right? It’s a big plant.

01:22 - 01:25
People are running around looking for parts, just troubleshooting, doing a whole bunch of stuff.

01:25 - 01:47
So if you walk around with a card in your hand trying to find somebody, it's not as efficient as I mean, you guys have an app on your phone, you know what I mean? I can just send it on its way and it's going and I can say without a doubt that it's so much easier to keep track of the things that we have on the floor because instead of having it stored in three different places of work, remake cards are out and they're doing it's all in one place.

01:47 - 02:03
It's just on Unifize. It's just in a conversation. All you have to do is be like, just say three days went by and it's a special and supervisor is like, hey, I really need those parts. Where are they? You know, it's just in my opinion reduce the amount of confusion of where something could be and it definitely got the piece of paper out of people's hands.

02:03 - 02:09
You know it's right there. You most people are sitting at their desk reading emails. It's like Unifize right there. Open it up.
