What Insights Can You Get from a Telemetry Dashboard

Digital checklists means taking what you currently have on paper and digitizing it. But let’s take that one step further. Once you digitize the answers to the questions you now have real-time data for your forklift pre-shift reports. Forklift pre-shift reports that can give you insights for any duration of time allowing you to make critical decisions on your forklift trucks.

What is a Forklift Pre-Shift Reports?

Forklift Pre-Shift Reports is the central location where data is turned into real information that can be use to make various level decisions. These forklift pre-shift reports reside in the telemetry Dashboard where you can analyze any aspect of the pre-shift forklift inspection for any length of time and focusing on certain aspects of the forklift pre-shift inspection.

Here are a few ways you can use the information for decision making purposes.

Failed Forklift Inspections

If and when a forklift fails, there’s a story to be told. The story is the life of a forklift…its performance, breakdowns and patterns of the breakdowns. Was it due to lack of maintenance or was there a problem within the manufacturing of the machine. These comes through in the reports.

By analyzing the data from the forklift pre-shift reports, you’ll gain insights in to the frequency, when it began, what the problems were, time of day, and who was operating the forklift during the times of issues. This can bring answers to the situation so you can make an informed decision as to what is going to give longevity to the forklift.

Near Miss Forklift Accidents

The importance of a near miss is the patterns that it forms. These patterns are what helps you identify the ‘hot spots’ or area within the facility that has all the right conditions for an accident. A near miss reading that forms in particular areas within the facility is what we identify as the precursor to an accident.

By understanding areas that are receiving high amounts of near misses are in need of evaluation in order to deter the future accident. There are some other aspects to consider for near misses such as the forklift operators. Is it being experienced by just new drivers, or experienced ones as well? If let’s say for instance both, then the area is primed to be inspected and changes can be made to lesser the risk. If you got it right, or think you got it right, you should see the near miss be affected.

Facility Comparison

If you have more than one facility, this is an opportunity to quickly view how each are performing. With the separation, you will be able to quickly know if one facility is performing better, worse or the same as the other. If there is a drastic difference, you can drill down into the data and begin to understand if it’s the lift trucks, a particular operator or is there a different problem that needs to be addressed such as near misses, or impacts.

Summary

Collecting data on the front end, the S2 or S3 solutions, need to go somewhere where you can easily view the data results and begin to gain insights. That’s what the Dashboard does for both the S2 and S3. This is a single Dashboard where all data for both products are centralized.

The Dashboard is graphics based so you can get the data you want…fast and make the decisions necessary to correct any situation. To get a first hand view of the Dashboard and its capabilities, contact us as at sales@siera.ai.
