  • From production and the front office teams, a collective average of 14 hours per day are spent physically tracking down parts  
  • Collectively, operators spend 3 hours per day finding information on how to process parts  
  • On average, manual data entry amounts to 8 hours daily (invoicing) and another 4 hours daily (generating shipping documents)
