Case background<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">A chemical manufacturer has multiple plants internationally, but the current out-of-control action plans (OCAPs) used in the production process are still based on paper records and processes. These plans were cumbersome and time-consuming, negatively impacting production. In addition, the paper-based SOPs, which consisted of about 100 pages, needed to be followed for each order, and the cumbersome procedures resulted in a high error rate, creating safety and regulatory risks if additives were mixed in the wrong order or in the wrong quantities. The company therefore needed to digitize and automate its production processes. In the process of digital transformation, the first problem was: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">\u25cf Paper SOPs are cumbersome for operators to keep and are often overlooked and lost.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">\u25cf Version control of SOPs for multiple locations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">\u25cf Safety incidents, scrap and errors are on the rise as experienced employees retire.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">\u25cf Highly manual processes make regulated tracking and tracing of each step in the chemical production process difficult and inconsistent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">\u25cf Operators need to log into multiple different systems to get the information they need and record transactions, resulting in reduced efficiency and impacting production. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">:: Reduced safety incidents and improved compliance through automation and guidance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media.istockphoto.com\/photos\/technologist-expert-in-protective-uniform-with-hairnet-and-mask-picture-id1161610414?b=1&amp;k=20&amp;m=1161610414&amp;s=170667a&amp;w=0&amp;h=E33-6A0PMBZw9xsCzEfRNtZAdsDP4clberjDFKQk1Ak=\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">II.
