Enhance Internal Communications

Operations people are regularly mobile and not sitting at a desk all day.
Digital communications can help improve the connection for these employees. Whether it is organisation-wide or targeted messaging via digital displays, mobile apps or interactive kiosks, everyone within operations and beyond can be on the same page instantly when you employ real-time digital communications.

Engage Employees

Digital communications also help employees to be more productive, as communication, or lack of, is a significant factor in the success of any operations team or indeed, any team. According to a study from SIS International, the cumulative cost of lost productivity due to communication challenges was over $26,000 per worker every year.

When you equip your employees with the right information, at the right time, on the right device, the dividends will not only include improved employee engagement, but increased morale, sense of engagement, and much more.

Increase Efficiency and Productivity

Visual dashboards provide employees and management with insight into the operations of the organization. Consider the use of these types of displays on plant floors, in warehouses, in offices and many other locations in organisations across all industries. Employees and managers can clearly see real-time information and key metrics and how the organisation is tracking against those stats. These examples of instant communication can spur more efficient, productive work when all employees are aware of current metrics.

Reduce Errors, Decrease Costs

Enhanced digital communications strategies also have an additional benefit: reducing errors; this leads to decreased costs. If employees are aware of key targets and stats, it becomes easier to check out weak areas to see what’s going wrong. The data helps them make better decisions, finding the source of the problem. Without this valuable information, the organizations could continue to miss targets, make mistakes and waste money and resources.

Keeping Score

Think of it as your scoreboard. Everyone wants to know what the score is. Keeping score is important, it lets your people know exactly how they are going.

Optimised Safety Practices

Digital communication is an ideal channel for training and education. An organization with locations across the country or world can view the same information to provide consistency across its safety program. Keeping employees aware of hazards and best practices may answer compliance requirements as well.

Energise Your Operations

Digital communication is a critical medium for organizations, and it’s not just a channel for marketing. By communicating internally, your operations team can engage employees, increase productivity and efficiency, and reduce errors and costs. With so many options to execute digital communications, including information screens, video walls, wayfinding, and more, there is a relevant solution for any organization.
