From paper to digital: How software helps companies save money

It is no longer news that the UK is facing a severe shortage of skilled labor, with a recent study conducted by the Office of National Statistics (ONS) reporting that in November 2022, over 13% of businesses in the UK experienced a shortage of workers across various industries like food services, construction and engineering.

Companies in these industries need talented individuals with the right skills and qualifications to deliver quality work and ensure safety compliance. However, the shortage of skilled labour is making it challenging to find the right people with the required expertise. Consequently, businesses cannot afford to have their remaining talents stuck in administrative duties that can be handled with technology. This is where solutions like Frame come in.

Frame is a software solution that improves the efficiency and productivity of workers by automating manual tasks. This enables existing staff to take on the tasks that require their capabilities, reducing the need to hire more workers.

With Frame, technicians can focus more on revenue-generating and essential activities by automating their manual processes like generating reports, scheduling inspections and repairs.

Here are five ways that Frame can help your business:

1. Reduce time spent on manual processes

Technicians spend a lot of time manually tracking equipment performance, safety compliance, and maintenance schedules. With Frame, this information is tracked automatically, reducing the time spent on manual processes.

2. Improve Efficiency and Productivity

By automating manual processes, technicians can apply their skills in other essential tasks, such as conducting inspections, maintenance, and repairs. This can improve efficiency and productivity, allowing businesses to take on more work without increasing their workforce and inundating their employees with administrative processes.

3. Enhance Equipment Performance and Safety

Frame provides real-time data on equipment performance and safety compliance. This enables businesses to identify potential issues before they become major problems, reducing downtime and increasing equipment lifespan.

4. Simplify Compliance with Regulations and Standards

Companies in industries like food processing, construction, lifting and engineering must comply with various regulations and standards regarding equipment safety and performance such as LOLER and fire safety regulations. Frame simplifies compliance by providing a single source of truth for all equipment data, reducing the risk of non-compliance and potential fines.

5. Increase Transparency and Accountability

Frame provides a transparent and accountable system for equipment management. All data is stored in a centralized location, providing a clear audit trail of equipment performance, maintenance, and safety compliance.

Although the shortage of skilled labour is a significant challenge for businesses in technical industries. However, asset management solutions like Frame can help companies automate and streamline their workflows, allowing your workers to focus more on high-value activities. By enhancing efficiency, better equipment performance, transparency, and accountability, Frame can help businesses stay competitive and thrive in a challenging labour market.
