Thermo Fisher
This is how Thermo Fisher uses L2L across lab and production operations to improve quality performance and frontline training.
Boosting quality and efficiency withuser-friendly job aids.
Standardize processes to reduce inspection failures, downtime, and setup time.
Easy to access and use SOPs on tablets available at the production line that streamline task execution.
Integration with PowerBI for better data analysis and continuous improvement.
Inspection Failures
Thermo Fisher's packaging team struggled with line clearance and inspection issues. By standardizing across lab teams and improving frontline training, they significantly reduced error rates and ensured high-quality output.
Before
Manual lab clearance and paper-based inspections led to frequent failures and significant delays in production cycles.
Now
Digital checklists and standardized SOPs have significantly lowered error rates and ensured 100% compliance during lab audits.
Professionalism throughout has been world-class.
Standardizing Practical Problem Solving
Supervisors needed a way to verify task execution and compliance in real-time. Implementing digital checklists for Gemba walks has provided better data visibility and a structured path for continuous improvement.
Before
Supervisors struggled to verify task execution and compliance in real-time, relying on delayed paper reports for Gemba walks.
Now
Digital checklists allow for instant verification of compliance, providing better data for continuous improvement and Gemba walk efficiency.
Safety has been improved and production line efficiency has been increased greatly through digital instructions.
Staying competitive through innovation
Step-by-step digital work instructions give frontline teams the knowledge they need to more efficiently set up complex sensors and equipment at the production line, reducing downtime.
Before
Setting up complex sensors and equipment was a bottleneck, as operators lacked clear, step-by-step digital guidance at the line.
Now
Step-by-step digital work instructions reduced SMED setup time by 50% and increased task execution speed by 20%.
It opened our eyes to a different platform. It's easy to use and easy to create instructions, step-by-step.
