Your Daily Challenges

How much time does your team lose before the work even starts?

Searching for an asset. Checking which part is correct. Calling an experienced colleague. Finding the latest instructions. Which of these slows down your team?

When locations and information are hard to find, routine work takes longer and responding to a breakdown becomes more difficult. As experienced employees leave, their knowledge can become harder to replace.

01

Your team needs instructions that are difficult to find.

02

The same task is carried out differently across shifts.

03

A work order identifies the task, but employees still need to find the asset and the right information.

04

Checking what was completed, where, and when takes extra effort.

How WORKFORCE Helps

Connect every task to the right asset, location, and instructions.

  1. Connect - Bring relevant tasks and information from your existing systems.
  2. Guide - Help employees reach and identify the right asset.
  3. Document - Record location, findings, photos, and completion details.
  4. Update - Return work status and evidence to connected systems.

Use cases first

Start with the operational problem that costs you most.

The same platform solves different problems because it connects every workflow to a real location and asset.

Real maintenance routine

01 · Maintenance & compliance

Inspections must happen at the asset — not only on a checklist.

Problem: Paper or digital checklists can be confirmed from anywhere. Evidence is incomplete and audits become time-consuming.

WORKFORCE: Guides the employee to the exact asset, opens the correct inspection and records time, location, findings and photos.

  • Verified task completion
  • Audit-ready evidence
  • Less administration
Real defect workflow

02 · Defects & downtime

When a machine stops, nobody should search for the place or the knowledge.

Problem: Issue descriptions are vague, experts are unavailable and resolution knowledge is scattered across shifts.

WORKFORCE: Localizes the defect, guides the right person and serves asset-specific history, instructions and required parts on site.

  • Faster response and lower MTTR
  • Closed-loop defect resolution
  • Knowledge available at the point of work
Navigate to the exact item

03 · Spare parts & asset pickup

The part may exist — but every minute spent searching is still lost production.

Problem: Assets move, inventory locations become inaccurate and the wrong part can be selected.

WORKFORCE: Identifies the item, guides the employee to its precise location and records pickup, relocation and status automatically.

  • Less search and walking time
  • Correct part usage
  • Complete movement traceability
Real asset tracking workflow

04 · Asset tracking & production flow

Moving assets and hidden material-flow inefficiencies must become visible.

Problem: Raw materials, WIP and finished goods move through dynamic environments. Blocking assets, search time and real storage capacity remain invisible.

WORKFORCE: Scans and precisely localizes assets, receives orders from ERP, guides workers to the asset and destination, and updates completion instantly.

  • No search time for assets
  • Transparent material flow
  • Higher capacity without expansion
  • ERP synchronized in real time

Decision questions

Built to lower implementation risk.

Does WORKFORCE replace ERP, MES or CAFM?

No. It connects these systems to verified execution in the physical world through APIs.

How fast can we start?

A focused setup can be completed in days. Scope depends on the site and the first use cases.

Do we need beacons or new positioning hardware?

No powered positioning infrastructure is required. The patented approach works camera-first on standard mobile devices.

What do we receive during setup?

The setup includes the spatial foundation, digital twin, 360° walkthrough and accurate 2D as-is floor plan without additional cost.
