Tackling the Labor Shortage in the Era of Electricity 4.0

Nov. 20, 2024
How to improve daily operations with predictive maintenance and remote monitoring.

The integration of operational hardware and smart devices is delivering efficiency gains, enhancing safety and improving sustainability. And it also is changing the workplace.

Today’s workers need a broad set of skills that includes the ability to understand communication systems, software, and data analytics. So while Electricity 4.0 is digitalizing the workplace and enabling improvements in performance, it also is complicating things — particularly for veteran workers.

The result is a labor shortage that impacts daily operations and throws a wrench into the cogs when it comes to making crucial repairs.

According to Bill Bentz, Schneider Electric’s vice president of service execution in the United States, the labor shortage challenge can be transformed into a golden opportunity with the implementation of a member-based service plan.

Find out how the Schneider Electric EcoCare service plan improves operations with:

  • Continuous equipment monitoring to identify anomalies in real time
  • Predictive maintenance based on performance data
  • Remote monitoring to address operational issues
  • Resource allocation that ensures maintenance and repairs are carried out by workers with appropriate skills
  • AI and algorithm-based analytics that provide a solution and apply it throughout a facility or across multiple sites.
