Covestro, a leading materials manufacturer, recognized the critical importance of effective shift handovers in their 24/7 operations. Traditionally, these handovers relied on varied systems across plants, including Excel sheets, handwritten logs, and custom programs, leading to inconsistencies and potential communication gaps. To standardize and enhance this process, Covestro implemented Shiftconnector®, a web-based digital shift log, across 90 production facilities worldwide. This transition has streamlined information transfer, improved operational efficiency, and bolstered safety by ensuring that all personnel have immediate access to accurate, up-to-date information, regardless of location
Shiftconnector enhances safety by ensuring real-time visibility into plant operations, incidents and task completion. Teams can quickly log and track safety events, receive alerts about potential hazards and coordinate corrective actions across shifts. With structured workflows and instant communication, teams can identify and address risks before they escalate, reducing incidents and improving overall plant safety.
Shiftconnector standardizes shift handovers by providing a centralized platform for logging key events, tasks and production updates. Incoming teams have instant access to the latest information, ensuring continuity and reducing miscommunication. By keeping operators, engineers and managers aligned, Shiftconnector eliminates information gaps, enables efficient cross-shift and cross-team collaboration, and prevents delays in critical plant operations.
By digitizing task management, tracking deviations and centralizing production data, Shiftconnector helps chemical manufacturers maintain consistent batch quality and optimize productivity. Teams can monitor batch progress in real time, quickly flag issues and ensure corrective actions are taken to maintain production standards. With shared data and streamlined workflows, plants can minimize rework, reduce waste and improve overall efficiency.
