Machine setup and changeovers
Capture the exact sequence your best operator uses so every shift gets the same result.
MANUFACTURING
SOP and work instruction software for manufacturing.
Turn machine setups, changeovers, lockout steps and quality checks into clear, approved procedures. Film the job once, then post it by QR code at the machine.
QUICK ANSWER
SOP365 is SOP software for manufacturers. Supervisors film a task on the shop floor, SOP365 drafts a step-by-step work instruction or safe work procedure with screenshots, and the team approves it and shares it by QR code at the machine. Training and worker acknowledgements are tracked for WorkSafeBC inspections, COR audits and customer quality audits.
