Stanford d.school article featuring Guidewheel

This article featured by Stanford University’s d.school highlighted how Guidewheel has continuously improved the manufacturing operations cloud to align with manufacturers’ priorities. Excerpts include:

“The approach of designing the tool for the factory’s top priority - production - also meant more people using Guidewheel to make decisions. When energy had been the only focus on the app, Guidewheel was only used by a few engineers in the factory. Now, with more people using Guidewheel, the energy efficiency metrics were being used to inform much larger decisions around operations and purchasing - which we believed would help us eventually have a much greater impact towards our mission”

“Two years later, as COVID-19 hit, we thought back to that “10X Sales” mindset shift. In the context of massive global changes, working harder at the same things was clearly not the answer. Now was the moment to skip the incremental changes and try completely different things.”
