Simply access the app via your browser and start adding value!

Increasing your productivity with the Digital Factory – even today, this can be done much faster than it seems. Instead of carrying out multi-million dollar digitization projects with an unclear outcome, it is worthwhile to go productive immediately with apps that are application-specific and absolutely easy to use. These are equally suitable for large and small companies.

The Digital Shift Book is such an app with an immediate guarantee: With it, you achieve better internal communication right away, achieve more process reliability when recording information, have less effort searching for information and benefit from faster shift handovers. Simply open the app via your browser and get started! 

The Digital Shift Book is a true on-demand application

The Digital Shift Book ensures quick success on your way to the Digital Factory (Industry 4.0). The Shift Book app is a true on-demand application (SaaS), which means it is ready within minutes, easy to use and can be used on all mobile and stationary IT devices. As a cloud-native application, it meets the highest demands of companies of all sizes alike. It was completely redeveloped in 2022 and is based on New Solutions’ Connected Worker platform and more than 20 years of experience with shift book applications. 

Set of basic functions

The Digital Shift Book App focuses on the shift worker who records and processes shift events. The app offers a set of basic functions such as. 

  • Define shift books and record, edit and delete shift events
  • Overview of all shift books and shift events in the dashboard
  • Shift handover and shift reporting, open events are transferred to the next shift
  • Easy search and filtering of shift information

Flexibility in operational processes

Thanks to its cross-platform capability, the Digital Shift Book App adapts excellently to operational processes and circumstances: For example, an employee can briefly enter a shift book entry on his personal mobile device (smartphone, tablet, etc.) during his tour; later, he can complete and finalize it on his PC. The entries are visible in a dashboard for all authorized persons, and they are kept in an audit- and IT-secure manner. The Digital Shift Book thus also functions as a kind of “knowledge database”: you can search for previous entries and evaluate information in a targeted manner to make better and, above all, faster decisions. The more employees use the app, the faster it will develop into a plant- or company-wide shift book by itself and without further effort. 

Marketplace of use cases

With the Digital Shift Book, you run your Digital Factory successfully from the start, adding value, meeting your needs and being expandable at any time. We offer a variety of practical apps for concrete use cases from everyday production. The app spectrum ranges from fire safety checks to complaints management, from asset management to digital rounds reports – all of this combined in a marketplace of (almost) unlimited possibilities.
