Trucking company uses Zavanta to support safety standards
A full service transportation company needed a more consistent way to train hires and ensure safety and quality standards were followed. Additionally they provided quality consulting and training to the transportation industry.
With Zavanta, they were able to create Position Guides and individual task instructions to support the Safety and Quality program for themselves and other companies. Zavanta's standardization enabled them to increase the efficiency of their training, making it easier for people to learn. Zavanta was instrumental in helping them enhance their consulting business.
Zavanta helps manufacturer reduce variation
The Production Manager of a manufacturing firm was concerned with the "tribal knowledge" culture that had evolved over time. Some of the long time employees were retiring, so there was a serious brain drain.
Using Zavanta, the company was able to develop SOPs for every area in their business including production operations and back-office. Now, all employees have instant access to all the SOPs relevant to their job. In many cases, the very exercise of writing the SOP enabled them to re-engineer how some tasks were performed, making them more efficient.
