Photo Evidence & Traceability
Every quality checkpoint captures photo evidence stored in Azure Blob Storage with metadata linking to the specific work order, operator, station, and timestamp — providing complete traceability for customer audits and regulatory inspections.
Digital Training Delivery
The same platform delivers both production instructions and operator training — with a built-in training mode requiring learner confirmation at each step, and automatic competency record creation in D365 HR on completion.
Hindi & Regional Language SOPs
Work instructions authored and displayed in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and other Indian languages — critical for production workers in Indian manufacturing who may have limited English literacy.
OEE & Quality Intelligence
Aggregate work order completion times, FTR rates, and quality defect data in Power BI — connecting shop floor performance to OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness) metrics and identifying the specific process steps causing quality or throughput losses.
6 Weeks from Kickoff
Pre-built Canvas Power App, D365 Field Service workflow templates, and SOP authoring tools reduce deployment time to 6 weeks — including SOP migration from paper or existing digital formats, device setup, and operator training.

Worker Guidance for Indian Manufacturing
Built for Indian manufacturing reality — affordable hardware, multilingual workforce, and Indian quality & compliance standards.
SchwettmannTech designed the Worker Guidance System for India's manufacturing reality: high operator turnover requiring rapid training, multilingual workforces needing instructions in Hindi and regional languages, budget constraints favouring affordable Android tablets over expensive HoloLens for most stations, and quality standards aligned to Indian customer requirements (BIS, ISI mark, export quality). HoloLens Remote Assist is deployed selectively for complex maintenance tasks where AR guidance delivers clear ROI.

What Our Clients Say
"SchwettmannTech deployed the Worker Guidance System across our 3 assembly lines in 7 weeks. Paper SOPs are gone — workers scan QR codes and get Hindi-language step-by-step instructions with photos. First-time right rate improved from 76% to 94% in 60 days. New operator training time dropped from 3 weeks to 8 days. Our ISO 9001 audit was the smoothest we've had — every quality record was digitally traceable."
"Our pharma manufacturing facility needed GMP-compliant digital batch records. The Worker Guidance System replaced paper batch manufacturing records with digital, signed-off checklists — capturing operator ID, timestamp, and photo evidence for every critical step. CDSCO audit found our digital BMR system exemplary. Batch release time dropped from 2 days to 4 hours."
"We use Azure Remote Assist with HoloLens for complex CNC machine maintenance — our service engineers are in Bangalore, machines are across 4 states. The engineer sees exactly what the on-site technician sees and can annotate the field of view to guide repairs. Mean time to repair dropped 60%. We've saved 200+ engineer travel days annually since deploying the system."
