Colgate-Palmolive: Increasing Collaboration and Reducing Machinery Start Up Time

Colgate-Palmolive supplies products to more than 200 countries and has over 40 manufacturing facilities; each with their own team of engineers. Without a unified source of data, engineers had no visibility into what other facilities were doing. Learn how Colgate-Palmolive used Specright to increase visibility, test and deploy machines faster, and speed up large projects.

  • Ensure correct equipment setup across the globe by digitizing FATs & SATs and linking standards to machinery specifications
  • Increase Asset Utilization by reducing machine start up time
  • Democratize tribal knowledge, enabling better collaboration and best-practice sharing

“I can now ask for pictures and information on equipment from facilities I would never have been able to get before, because we now have this common bond through Specright. The team concept is no longer who is within the 4 walls of the plant, but who are you working with in your technical community around the world.”
