To production management

By moving to a job-and-staff management system with the reporting depth to back it up, Strata achieved a 25% productivity lift in their first two years on Empower.

From manual to managed

Strata Precision Plastics achieved a 25% increase in factory productivity within their first two years of using Empower — by moving to an effective job and staff management system.

Reporting depth that holds up

They gained the reporting depth needed to maintain substantial gains in workshop output rather than watching them slip away after the initial lift.

The ability to accurately track and report on every task has made Empower an essential tool for Strata's production management.
