Paperless Shop Packet is designed specifically for the shop floor worker to display shop order information such as: routings, parts, drawings, quality info, set up instructions, video clips and pictures. Documents and pictures are listed by order number or part and immediate available for display. By tapping on the screen you can display just about any type of file (e.g., Word, Excel, pdf, pictures) or video clips available on your Android or iOS device .The system searches for the most current information and latest revisions, eliminating the need to update and print paper travelers and maintain work order binders. You can realize immediate and tangible savings alone on paper and printer maintenance while adding to sustainable and green initiatives. The user screens are easy to use and fast to operate reducing training time to a minimum.
Within each of the Mobilize-IT applications you can indicate which data elements will contain the information needed to accurately query the network to know what documents are relevant for your need. For example, if you store your CAD drawings on the network using the part number as the name of the document; the system can be told to look for the documents with part number in the name. This can apply to not only the drawings but any pictures, videos, etc. The middleware automatically links documents and updates the references as new documents are added and older documents are changed or replaced. The middleware searches the network for the most current information and graphically displays the information to the operator.
