Industrial site running SESAHUB since 2026

In a demanding industrial environment, communication cannot be approximate. It has to be visible, structured and instantly understood by everyone. That is the challenge the CNH site took on by turning its traditional visual management into digital visual management. We spoke with Tony Vaucher, Operations Manager, who led the transformation.

Tony Vaucher, before SESAHUB, how would you rate communication at your site?

"We needed to grab people's attention. Communication wasn't always smooth or fully effective."

In our company culture, communication is a fundamental pillar. It had become essential to modernize our practices and turn our traditional visual management into genuine digital visual management.

What was the real problem you identified?

"In our culture, communication is a very important pillar. We have to communicate on KPIs, site life and news flashes."

The problem wasn't a lack of indicators. The problem was how effective they were. We had identified several limitations:

"Checklists were still done on paper. We needed to save time, cut down on data entry and reduce paper."

So the challenge was twofold: make KPIs more visible, and digitize processes to make steering more reliable and faster.

How did you discover SESAHUB?

The project took on a new dimension during a visit to the SESA SYSTEMS Academy.

"We discovered the interactive touchscreen. It gave us ideas straight away."

We very quickly decided to test the solution on the shop floor. A pilot screen was installed in part of the operation, and SESAHUB was deployed as a POC (Proof of Concept) for several weeks.

How did the POC go?

"We used SESAHUB for several weeks with support from SESA SYSTEMS."

The objective was clear: validate adoption on the shop floor and measure the real impact. No theoretical demo — a genuine operational trial.

How did your three shifts (morning, afternoon, night) react?

"Very quickly, we had very positive feedback from all three shifts: morning, afternoon and night."

The solution was understood, used and naturally built into management routines. The decision was obvious:

"We decided to standardize the solution across the entire site."

Digital visual management has become an operational standard.

In practical terms, what changed in terms of time saved?

Before digitization, updating indicators took several manual steps. Today:

"Managers enter the information once, and within two minutes every dashboard is up to date."

Real-time KPI tracking becomes smooth and instant. The concrete results:

And in terms of how well teams understand the figures?

"We have real clarity in how our various figures and results are presented."

In briefings, the impact is immediate:

"Understanding across all our employees has improved significantly."

KPIs are visible, consistent and understood by everyone. Digital visual management strengthens collective engagement.

Was going paperless an obvious step?

The transformation isn't just about what is displayed.

"We now work entirely digitally."

Checklists are built into the solution. Traceability is better. Data-entry errors are reduced. A concrete step towards digital continuous improvement and an environment fully geared to Industry 5.0.

What is the first benefit you would point to?

Without hesitation, overall consistency.

"Communication is assured across the board, and we know for certain that all the information has reached every team."

Every shift now has the same indicators, the same up-to-date data and the same messages. Visual management has become a true strategic steering tool.
