EPISODE #2 Visual data talks much more than excel spreadsheets or reports!

For the second episode, I am joined by Gary Kaljuvee, the CEO of Sjolund Estonia. He gives an insight from the metal industry.

“And of course, after digitalization the communication between key persons is now totally “next level”, because now everybody has the same base to make different decisions,” said Gary when asked to point out some good results.

Definitely one keyword is training. Training, training and one more time – training.
If your team is well trained and motivated, then the whole manufacturing will work seamlessly.

Thank you, for your time Gary.

Real-time data matters.

“On the shop floor, we have big screens where we display real-time data (how much product was made, who is currently working, the machine stops, etc). When the screens were down for like half a day, everybody came to me and asked: „Why is it down?” „Why can’t we see real-time data?” etc, ” discussed Martin.

Thank you Martin for bringing up those specific points!
