Key Points we have found using the Empower Workshop

"Within 2 years of using Empower software we got our factory staff down from 25 to 18 factory staff whilst retaining our weekly production, which was a 38% increase in our factory productivity.
The 7 staff saving (25 down to 18) we achieved initially in our boat division was a substantial annual wage cost saving. This is also a substantial time and cost saving for the products that we manufacture, which in turned allowed us to substantially more cost competitive in the market place, and more profitable"

“We used to use time punching machines that workshop staff punched on and off each jobs. Workshop staff were not aware of their budgeted times for the job at job start and not aware of their actual time on the job at job end. Workshop staff worked largely unaware of time on each job and worked at their own pace.
Using Empower we have achieved an estimated 15% increase in factory productivity “

"We have witnessed an estimated 25% increase in factory productivity in the first 2 years.
Empower is an effective job and staff management system which has enabled us to achieve and maintain substantial factory productivity gains that we would not be without.

“Using Empower I estimate we achieve a 25% reduction in labour times and labour cost on jobs. We track and manage all our Downtime on Empower which bring substantial additional time savings
We export Orders and Jobs from SAP via csv spreadsheet and import all into Empower. So we have one seamless solution – there is no double data entry
Empower’s accurate and real time actual to budgeted times data on Products and Stages of Products is “Gold”. This enables us to achieve and maintain consistent profit on all Products and all Orders”

"Labour time on our jobs and therefore our labour cost on jobs has reduced by 15 to 20%.
Empower Software is the tool that allows me to be a professional and thorough production manager. Using Empower I: plan production far better, monitor production far better, get a lot more out of my factory staff team and I build and maintain a high moral and great company culture.
We would not be without Empower Software. We certainly would not go back to “manufacturing in the dark”, as we were manufacturing previously with manual time sheets"
