[News] Selected for IT Introduction Subsidy 2024 - Worker Analysis AI

DX transformation with operator analysis AI: Visualizing work processes and converting "tacit knowledge" into "explicit knowledge." We will streamline and optimize the manufacturing process!

We will clarify the tasks in manufacturing and logistics that are prone to errors and time-consuming, and achieve appropriate personnel placement, training, workload verification, and improvement of work mistakes. To this end, we will promote the digital transformation (DX) of operations, which can enhance productivity and quality. To address issues such as labor shortages and the transmission of skills, we will utilize the "Worker Analysis AI" to smoothly implement the SECI model (Socialization, Externalization, Combination, Internalization), promoting personnel training, efficient work, and knowledge sharing. The "Worker Analysis AI" strengthens corporate competitiveness and supports sustainable growth. **The Necessity of Converting Tacit Knowledge into Explicit Knowledge** In various operations, the experience of skilled workers tends to accumulate as tacit knowledge within individuals. Converting tacit knowledge into explicit knowledge offers the following benefits: - Standardization: Ensures consistency in work procedures and quality. - Efficient Training: Enables rapid training of new employees. - Knowledge Sharing: Shares knowledge across the organization, improving performance. - Risk Mitigation: Reduces risks associated with worker transfers and resignations. - Continuous Improvement: Promotes process improvements, optimizing efficiency and costs. *For more details, please refer to the "Related Catalog" and "Other Materials" and contact us.*
