Case Study: Scott Electronics Inc. achieves increased productivity and operational excellence with Visual Knowledge Share Ltd

Scott Electronics Inc. - Customer Case Study

Scott Electronics Inc. is a family-run contract manufacturer (nearly 200 employees across Salem, NH and Nogales, Mexico) specializing in wire and cable harnessing for industries like medical and homeland security. Facing a high-mix, low-volume environment, scheduling customer variations while standardizing work, sustaining continuous improvement and gathering reliable KPIs proved difficult; ERP/MRP systems alone weren’t enough, so Scott Electronics Inc. turned to Visual Knowledge Share Ltd and its VKS Enterprise software for visual work instructions and data capture.

Visual Knowledge Share Ltd implemented VKS Enterprise to replace paper instructions with standardized, visual, real-time work procedures and built-in data collection. The solution reduced process variation, improved traceability and cross-department communication, increased throughput and operational efficiency, and made quality data readily available for faster decisions. Customers report a smarter, Industry 4.0–capable factory, and Scott Electronics Inc. achieved measurable gains in control, consistency, and capacity following the VKS deployment.
