20%
Reduction in manufacturing times
50%
Drop in downtime

Landquip recovered $67,500 a year by replacing manual timesheets across 15 staff. Touchscreens on the floor cut manufacturing times 20% and downtime 50%.

Hidden leakage

Across Landquip Engineering's 15 workshop staff, roughly $90 per person per week was quietly bleeding out — lost production, admin overhead, and the soft costs of paper timesheets nobody had time to chase.

Touchscreens on the floor

Empower went in with touchscreens at the workstations. Staff clocked onto jobs in seconds; the office stopped reconstructing labour from memory. The data started flowing from day one.

$67,500 back every year

Manufacturing times dropped 20%, downtime halved, and the recovered profit added up to $67,500 a year. Knowing your numbers pays for itself fast.
