Z Modular, a subsidiary of industry steel giant ,
Zekelman Industries implemented
Offsight’s project management software at their Chandler, AZ, Killeen, TX and Kitchener, ON manufacturing facilities to streamline product quality and production progress tracking. Offsight’s software helps manufacturers maximize scalability in their process, coordinate with many internal and external project stakeholders and provides a level of flexibility necessary to accommodate Z Modular’s wide variety of commercial, hospitality, and multifamily modular projects.
For Z Modular, one of the primary advantages of Offsight’s solution is the ability to visualize a quality and production process in real-time and easily scale it across several large factories. This is a critical time-saver for general managers who require
executive reporting on the product level across factories and for coordinating with general contractors during installation at the job site.
Offsight’s software can be set up based on each factory’s existing manufacturing workflow process. By leveraging a
defined set of features in Offsight, operators and quality managers can set up their factory visualization, flag and resolve quality issues, and report project progress to stakeholders with images. This ensures an easy and seamless implementation process.
For enterprise manufacturers like Z Modular, spending additional time and effort deploying custom solutions at each factory site is very costly and time consuming. Unlike custom solutions, Offsight was implemented at Z Modular’s
220,000 sq ft Chandler, Arizona factory in record time. A second
230,000 sq ft factory in Killeen, Texas was onboarded in a matter of weeks by simply spinning up a new Offsight account, adding in a different set of checklists and users into Offsight’s software. The highly customizable factory layout and workflow enables processes modifications for differences in state and regulatory reporting. This was valuable in scaling shortly afterwards to Z Modular’s Kitchener, ON location in Canada.
