Conagra Brands Improves Quality & Reduces Downtime With Connected Work
THE CHALLENGE
Paper-based work instructions hinder collaboration and do not capture the complexities of various standard operating procedures. Conagra Brands wanted to improve operations at its plants by using a digital, mobile-first approach for its frontline employees to execute work, seek real-time help, access information quickly and collect actionable and accurate data.
The ACCENTURE + PARSABLE SOLUTION

“Before, you would have to leave the floor, go to the shop, log in, etc. With this, if you have it on you, by the time it would have taken you to walk there, you’d already have it done.”
– Corbin P., Maintenance Lead
