VideoStep Product Lineup

We would like to introduce a case where the "VideoStep" was implemented at Gogo Curry Group, Inc. Before the implementation, the challenge was that the intentions behind the actions were not sufficiently conveyed through the paper manuals alone, leading to inconsistencies in on-site operations. After the introduction of "VideoStep," we focused on creating videos for processes where demonstrating the actions made it easier to understand, and we received feedback from the field that it is "user-friendly." [Case Overview] ■ Challenge: The intentions behind actions were not sufficiently conveyed with paper manuals alone, resulting in inconsistencies in operations. ■ Purpose of Implementation: To supplement processes that require movement with videos and align understanding. ■ Reason for Selection: Excellent balance between cost and usability, with low barriers from shooting to editing. ■ Operation Method: Organize existing manuals and prioritize video creation for areas that require movement. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case study of the implementation of "VideoStep" at Honma Co., Ltd. One of the challenges was the difficulty in sharing the know-how accumulated by veteran workers, as the dangers could not be effectively communicated through paper or verbally. Due to rotation shifts, it took 3 to 4 weeks to inform employees about changes in manuals, leading to cases where information did not reach everyone. After the implementation, safety awareness improved by sharing accident footage and near-miss examples through videos. Since records are kept in video format, it has become a less acceptable excuse to say "I didn't hear about it." 【Case Overview】 ■ Challenges - Know-how became personalized, and dangers could not be effectively communicated through paper or verbally. - Rotation shifts caused delays and omissions in information dissemination. - Although recorded footage existed, it could not be formatted for use as teaching materials. ■ Deciding Factors for Implementation - AI narration allows for the creation of narrated videos without needing to record one's own voice. - Sufficient trial period and supportive follow-up system. *For more details, please download the PDF or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a case study of the implementation of "VideoStep" at Kurashiki Central Hospital's Information Systems Department.
