The folks at Mattel have three factories and over 1,200 people. Sending out important updates was a huge problem. The safety protocols, HR, and shift changes were not reaching the floor. It was a whole different world to us.” We have 31 screens across our sites and all of them are managed through one CMS.
Being able to integrate Power BI into the OEE tool has been an absolute game-changer. For example, we now display real-time live production KPIs, targets and downtime on the factory floor and on dashboards throughout the factory. It’s useful because of the user roles feature. The ops team is responsible for their own dashboards for performance purposes while I take care of the HR and corporate comms dashboards. No one can remove anyone's content on their own by mistake.
Smart Scheduling has a hard expiry date in a manufacturing setup to bring compliance. The old notices disappear automatically, so outdated safety rules never stay onscreen. You can also take screenshots which is a plus. If I can view the screen which is 200 KM away, then I do not have to go to the site. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Although the platform is good, the integration into the Microsoft ecosystem could be better for big enterprises. We depend on Teams, SharePoint and Viva Engage. Right now, our content creators who aren't technical can’t pull content from these platforms as it requires API or embed code, and the IT team has to do it. If M365 connectors were available for native use, it would be a huge help for corporate-type of users like ourselves. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
