Manufacturers today face a widening skills gap that threatens productivity, quality, and cost control. This infographic explores how AI and Connected Worker solutions bridge that gap by digitally linking frontline workers to an enterprise QMS.
In today’s fast-paced manufacturing environment, empowered frontline workers are critical for maintaining high-quality standards and process efficiency. Strong connections between workers, processes and quality systems enable real-time decision-making, reduced errors and continuous improvement.
Tools like the ETQ Reliance® Connected Worker solution, provided in partnership with Augmentir, enhance quality management by empowering frontline workers to identify and resolve quality issues in real-time. This means faster response times, reduced cost of poor quality and a more efficient production environment.
When it comes to using AI in quality processes, it's not a question of if but when. A staggering 99% of survey respondents said they are either currently using AI or plan to use AI for key quality applications. 47% plan to use AI in the next two years.
