Title: Attract & Retain an Awesome Workforce with People-Centric Technology Investments
Event Type: Show Floor Education
Survey after survey cites that the number one challenge for business leaders in manufacturing is not productivity, and it is not quality. The number one challenge for business leaders in manufacturing is recruiting and retaining a stable & reliable workforce. Of course we need to have great productivity and main quality for our customers, while at the same time managing rising material & labor costs. But great service & making great products are compounded with an urgent need to recruit & retain the best & the brightest. How can manufacturers in this situation sustain their pipeline of valuable skilled people on top of everything else? Many leaders look to traditional automation solutions but struggle to make the return on investment attractive.
But there is hope! Manufacturers just like you are leveraging smart technologies focused on the worker at the center to create lasting change in quality, productivity & worker engagement. These collaborative automation technologies are people-centric automation investments that create new ROI calculations and empower workers.
Join this session for business leaders & engineers to learn why others are automating and how they are doing it with collaborative automation technologies. We will discuss when to automate, preparing the organization for automation, the differences between traditional automation and collaborative automation and we will provide real case study examples of value being created from people-centric technology investments like: autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), operator guidance technologies, AR/VR, wearables, exo-skeletons, quadrupeds, drones and cobots. In a fun and fast format, we’ll end with an action plan for your collaborative automation journey that can be followed regardless of your starting point.
