The Challenge
Mahindra needed an innovative way to train operators on new variants, while performing this training ‘live’ on-the-line – which caused unnecessary and increased costs as a result of the frequently experienced production delays, inefficiencies and rework.
How We Did It
By implementing ODIN Workstation throughout the entire line.
