“We can do a month’s planning in a day, whereas it used to take maybe two or three days. It’s very easy to use. With Flowlens it’s something that we share with the shop floor. With minimal training people are able to use it, understand the information that they’re given.

“We are able to see who’s not delivered yet. We’re able to make sure we’ve ordered everything. Because, there’s a classic problem where we think we’ve ordered everything on a spreadsheet. And then we discover when we’re putting it together, we’ve not ordered one of the main components. It just gives you the absolute overall visibility of everything.
We’ve reduced duplicated work in the workshop because we are now controlling our throughput with Flowlens job cards instead of handwritten notes.”
