What Mill Managers Say
We used to fly a consultant out twice a year at $10K a pop. Now our operators can train any time, and I can track who's completed what. The ROI was obvious within the first quarter.
Operations Manager
Midwest Paper Mill
The interactive quizzes actually get operators thinking instead of just sitting through slides. We've seen a measurable reduction in slitting defects since implementing WindPro.
Winder Superintendent
Southeast Converting Facility
New hires used to shadow for weeks before running the winder alone. Now they complete the training modules, pass the assessments, and they're productive in days, not weeks.
