Digital Work Instructions

Standardize execution and accelerate cycle time by 10-30%

With Connektica, digital work instructions, step validation, and e-signatures ensure operators cannot skip steps. Every build follows the approved process, cycle time is shorter, and rework is less frequent.

Guide every step to ensure consistent execution

Stop relying on static paper binders or operator memory that allow for skipped steps and inconsistent results across shifts. 

Instead, guide your team through digital instructions that require validation before the next task begins in full compliance with EN9100 and AS9100. 

You ensure every unit is built to exact specifications without the risk of manual oversight or “tribal knowledge” shortcuts.

Capture photo evidence in-app and save hours every week.

Don’t wait for final inspection to discover a defect or settle for checklists that lack visual proof of compliance.

Capture high-resolution photos of critical components directly within the workflow to link evidence to specific serial numbers.

You build an indisputable audit trail and provide customers with immediate, visual verification of work performed.

Centralize shop floor expertise to prevent knowledge loss

Stop letting valuable process improvements and assembly “tricks” disappear when experienced operators retire or change shifts.

Use integrated feedback loops to let your team flag bottlenecks and add notes to specific steps directly from their workstations.

You transform individual insights into a centralized library of best practices that optimizes your entire production line.

Keep every build consistent across shifts, operators, and sites

Build and run sequences, including rework loops

Update the sequence as the process evolves, including rework paths. Keep execution consistent even when things do not go perfectly.

Never miss a step with digital checklists

Replace paper forms with dynamic checklists that ensure no data point is missed. Prevent technicians from advancing to the next phase until all mandatory inspections are logged.

Verify kits, parts, and tools with scan-based checks

Confirm the right kit is at the station before work starts. Reduce missing-part delays and wrong-tool errors that only show up after the step is done.

 

Cut copy-pasting with automated data capture

Link measurement data and test results directly to the specific serial number being worked on. Eliminate manual data entry errors and speed up the creation of final quality reports.

Capture cycle time, rework, and deviations at step level for analysis

Collect step-level execution data as work happens. Use it to understand variability by station and target the next process improvement.

Author, version, and approve instructions with e-signatures

Publish changes with clear approvals and sign-offs. Keep instructions controlled, so your shop floor is not running “almost current” steps.
