The goal is to keep operations moving, but always in a more efficient, more effective way by meshing the talents of your workforce with evolving technology. However, this gets complicated in today’s plant floor environment as we try to identify and nurture the right skills in complimenting those investments.
Of course, there’s also the unique elements of your production environment. While everyone would love a plug-n-play dynamic, the truth is that plant floors are unique, and deserve some aspect of customization when implementing new solutions, people and skill sets. That’s where an Industrial Change Management Blueprint can help lighten your load.
The success of any project depends on the people responsible for making it work. New technology, process shifts and AI initiatives stall when employees lack the clarity and support to adopt them.
The difference between a successful transformation and a stalled one comes down to adoption. A structured approach helps teams embrace change while keeping the line moving.
Armanino has identified four steps that help streamline this process:
- Identify Adoption Barriers and Predict Resistance Earlier.
- Prepare Every Role and Personalize the Transition.
- Monitor the Transition.
- Reinforce New Behaviors and Strengthen Workforce Confidence.
The company has reportedly seen this approach produce:
- Up to 40 percent faster workforce adoption rates.
- 30-50 percent fewer operational disruptions.
- 2-5X faster time to value.
- Up to 20 percent lower transformation cost.
- 3-4X faster user proficiency.
A structured approach to change lays the foundation for a more connected, AI-enabled operating model, helping teams adapt sooner and with less disruption. For more information about how this approach could help your organization embrace and implement positive change, click here.
