Integrated Work Systems
Integrated Work Systems (IWS) drive frontline efficiency, safety, and quality.
Augmentir’s Connected Worker Platform provides the digital foundation to implement and sustain IWS at scale.
Integrated Work Systems (IWS) are foundational to driving operational excellence in modern manufacturing, aligning frontline work with safety, quality, and continuous improvement goals. By standardizing processes, empowering operators, and enabling real-time visibility into shop floor activity, IWS creates a structured approach to sustainable performance.
However, traditional paper-based or siloed systems often fall short in delivering the agility and insights needed in today’s dynamic environments.
Augmentir’s Connected Worker Platform provides the digital infrastructure to successfully implement and scale IWS across your operations. With built-in integrations to ERP, MES, CMMS, EH&S, LMS, and QMS systems, Augmentir provides a flexible way to modernize without ripping and replacing core infrastructure. This integration infrastructure allows Augmentir to act as a “Single Pane of Glass” for a manufacturer’s frontline operations.
Key IWS use cases supported by the Augmentir platform include daily management, 5S audits, Gemba walks, defect handling and tracking, centerline management, CIL (clean-inspect-lubricate) processes, changeover management, and more. These use cases are supported by Augmentir’s core platform capabilities and AI foundation—ensuring sustained performance and operational excellence.

Visual dashboards offer clear, actionable insights at a glance, enabling data-driven decisions and continuous improvement across production lines.
Augmentir’s AI-based workforce intelligence insights identify productivity opportunities across work processes and your workforce. Our suite of connected worker tools is designed to optimize performance management in manufacturing.
Augmentir’s Industrial AI Agent Studio empowers manufacturers to build, customize, and deploy their own Industrial AI Agents quickly and easily, with no-code tools, providing frontline operators and supervisors support for daily IWS activities.
Augmentir’s smart integration strategy is a key enabler for IWS programs, helping manufacturers extend the digital thread to include frontline operations. While Augmentir’s connected worker solution empowers teams to digitize work instructions, checklists, and SOPs, its true strength lies in the ability to create dynamic, integrated workflows that fully connect frontline workers to enterprise systems.
Augmentir has internal PaaS (Platform-as-a-Service) services to build, run and support connectors for popular enterprise applications like SAP, Salesforce, ETQ, Oracle, IBM Maximo, and more.
All third-party integrations running in the Augmentir connected worker platform carry the same SLA, geo-redundancy, disaster recovery, privacy, and enterprise-level security as the core Augmentir platform. By facilitating connected worker platform integrations with enterprise systems in this way, we have provided leading manufacturers with increased workforce visibility, improved productivity, digitized and standardized processes, enhanced training and collaboration, and more—without the burden of extra IT overhead.
By digitally connecting frontline work to the broader operational ecosystem, Augmentir helps manufacturers implement, scale, and sustain IWS strategies more effectively.
