Electronics | Production SOP digitization

A high-end electronics plant with lean goals. Multiple lines: PCB, final assembly, test and pack. SKUs change fast. Paper SOP is late, hard to read on the line and inconsistent.

After a document update, lines stay out of sync. People work from memory. New hires ramp slowly. Key-step error is high. Paper cannot be traced. Management cannot see SOP execution live.

Pain points Pain points

Paper SOP updates slowly

Paper is late and awkward. Lines diverge. Experience-based work keeps defect rates high.

New hires ramp slowly

Shadowing takes long and costs a lot. Key steps are slow to master and lean results suffer.

No poka-yoke, high error rate

No check on key steps. Mistakes are found late. Escape, quality cost and rework are high.

Solution Solution

Electronic SOP: visual work instruction, auto version update, poka-yoke on key steps, auto data capture and full trace. Station screens show the standard. AI checks key-step status across PCB, assembly, test and pack.

Rich on-station guidance. Non-compliant key steps are prompted immediately. Supervisors see standardization rate, key-step error and training progress. After go-live, standardization exceeded 99%, ramp time fell 50%, key-step mistakes fell 90%—standard process, transparent data, digital quality.
