The job

The firm built its own internal AI tools over the past year. Operators record quality checks digitally from the factory floor with real-time performance data across two sites, staff query the ERP system directly to find priority orders, and month-end reporting tasks run automatically.

Tool: Custom Built

What happened

One month-end reporting task fell from 60 to 90 minutes to about three minutes.

Stock numbers now update in real time when a production run finishes, where the production team used to update them by hand eight to ten hours later.

Before you believe it

This is the firm reporting on its own website, so the times are its own account with no outside check. The tools were built in house over about a year with hundreds of hours invested, which is part of the cost of the three minute figure.
