The Problem

Your Operators Are
Drowning in Data

Every minute spent searching for information is a minute of downtime. UK manufacturers lose billions because knowledge is fragmented, expertise is retiring, and operators can't find answers fast enough.

The 2 AM Alarm Scenario

An alarm goes off at 2 AM. Your night-shift operator knows something is wrong with Line 3, but finding the right SOP means:

  • Logging into SharePoint (if they remember the password)
  • Searching through 300+ PDF files with inconsistent naming
  • Checking if the procedure is outdated (last updated 2019)
  • Calling the day-shift supervisor at home for tribal knowledge

By the time they find the answer, production has been down for an hour. That's £5,000-£50,000 in lost output—for a problem that should've taken 10 minutes to fix.

30-40%

Time Wasted Searching

Operators spend nearly half their shift hunting for SOPs across SharePoint, paper binders, and outdated wikis.

4+ Hours

Average Downtime Duration

Most time spent diagnosing problems, not fixing them. Finding the right procedure takes longer than the actual repair.

£80 Billion

UK Annual Downtime Cost

Unplanned downtime costs UK/EU manufacturers billions. Even 10% reduction = millions saved for your facility.

3-5 Systems

Fragmented Knowledge

CMMS, SCADA, SharePoint, email—knowledge scattered everywhere. No single source of truth for operators.

60%

Retiring Expertise

Experienced technicians leaving in next 5 years. Tribal knowledge walks out the door with them.

25%

First-Time Fix Rate

Low first-time fix rates mean repeat failures, escalations, and frustrated operators who lack context.

What Does This Cost Your Facility?

A 200-employee plant with 4 hours of unplanned downtime per week loses approximately:

£800K

Annual lost production

200+

Hours wasted searching/week

£250K

Operator time spent searching

Even a 10% reduction in downtime means £80K+ annual savings
