TWI digitalization: standard work that lives on the shop floor.

The TWI methodology (Training Within Industry) has been proven — since the Second World War — for standardising work processes and onboarding new employees faster. The problem: TWI job instructions often live in binders and Word documents. They get created, used once, and then forgotten or outdated.

Digitalisation changes that. The TWI methodology stays at the heart — Job Instruction, Job Methods, Job Relations — but the delivery changes: from paper to digital, from one-time to living, from static to current.

What changes when TWI goes digital?

Standard work lives. Not in a binder, but at the workstation. Operators see the current version, not last year's.
Faster onboarding. TWI's three-step Job Instruction approach reinforced by per-step video links — operators literally see what's meant.
Audit trail. Every session is logged. Available immediately for ISO 9001, IATF 16949, and customer audits.
Continuous improvement. When Job Methods leads to an improved standard, it's visible across the organisation in minutes.

"What's beautiful about this collaboration is that the TWI discipline stays intact, but the operator on the shop floor can finally see what the standard actually is — not what it was supposed to be last year."

— Babette Huizinga, TWI Company (quote pending)
