Enhancing Manufacturing Efficiency with TrakSYS Connected Worker

Connection Required 

In today’s fast-paced manufacturing environment, the need for Connected Worker solutions has never been more critical. Providing teams with the digital tools and technologies necessary for accessing real-time information, communication, and collaboration, Connected Worker solutions foster efficiency, cross-departmental synergy, and enterprise-spanning optimization.

Key Capabilities of TrakSYS Connected Worker

As a unified, modular Manufacturing Execution System(MES), TrakSYS is primed to provide businesses with the Connected Worker functionality they need:

TrakSYS supports training and skills management by integrating with Learning Management Systems(LMS) to manage employee skills, certifications, and authorizations. Beyond simple integration, TrakSYS can visualize training data to track which employees are qualified for specific tasks and optimize work assignments based on skills. From there, TrakSYS Algorithmic Production Scheduling(APS) ensures the right skills are available for scheduled tasks, reducing downtime and improving workforce efficiency.

With TrakSYS, teams receive real-time, digital instructions on their devices, including text, images, and videos. Being able to readily access these types of information from one central hub improves task accuracy, ensures consistency in processes, and allows for the type of operational agility required to achieve stable, sustainably repeatable production.

TrakSYS Visual Workflow streamlines planning, task creation, assignment, and real-time monitoring by offering an interactive, drag-and-drop interface that allows users to map out and visualize tasks across the value stream. Managers can monitor workflows in real-time, adjusting for bottlenecks and integrating corrective actions as needed. This visual system improves accountability and provides transparency, ensuring tasks are completed in the correct sequence for optimal efficiency.

While not a traditional CMMS, TrakSYS offers enhanced functionality by integrating with shop floor automation systems to track equipment runtimes and performance in real-time. By enabling condition-based monitoring and predictive maintenance, TrakSYS reduces unexpected failures and maintenance costs, extending asset lifespan. The platform also supports autonomous maintenance activities, further optimizing asset utilization and allowing for better allocation of resources.

TrakSYS facilitates real-time communication and collaboration across teams and locations by providing integrated alerts and notifications for faster issue resolution. The platform’s configurable workflows allow seamless handovers between shifts or teams, ensuring continuity and minimizing downtime. 

Safety and compliance are paramount in manufacturing, and TrakSYS supports these by providing safety monitoring and compliance tracking. This ensures that all safety protocols are followed, creating a secure working environment for employees and maintaining product standards.

As a comprehensive MES, TrakSYS is designed to scale with the needs of an organization, accommodating additional Connected Worker functionalities as required. Its modular architecture allows businesses to add capabilities incrementally, ensuring that they can adapt to future business challenges and technological advancements. This flexibility makes TrakSYS a sustainable investment, whether companies need to expand operations, implement new manufacturing processes, or align with evolving industry standards.

Connecting to Optimization

TrakSYS Connected Worker solutions offer a comprehensive and integrated approach to streamlining operations, enhancing worker productivity, and improving safety and compliance. By empowering workers with real-time data, skill-based task assignment, and collaborative tools, manufacturers can boost operational efficiency, reduce downtime, and ensure a safer, more compliant work environment—all while staying future-ready.
