11:00 – 11:30 | Break

11:30 | Manufacturing Experience Design

Manufacturers are aggressively pursuing digital transformation to solve for Operational Technology (OT) and Information Technology (IT) convergence, Integrated Supply Chain disruptions, and more connected and remote operations.

12:15 – 13:30 | Lunch break

13:30 | Applying the Behavioural Sciences to Operating Procedures

Thousands of people die every year on the job. Countless rules are written, regulatory compliance is enforced, but people are still losing their lives. In 2020, over 5000 people in the US alone lost their lives while at work.

14:15 | UX in the Extreme: Ethnography in an Industrial setting

Radiation, fires, explosions, chemical exposure – working at industrial plants is full of pitfalls – and so is designing products for high regulated environments. Safety requirements and labour challenges rule out the ‘move fast and break things’ approach, incremental to traditional UX thinking, reliant on iteration and experimentation. As UX professionals we have to adapt and evolve our toolkit to help some of the most restrictive industries on their path towards digital innovation.

15:00 – 15:30 | Break

15:30 | Help me! Industrial Experience with Remote assistance

With digitization, the workflows in the production process are becoming more and more complex. Malfunctions and maintenance work are increasingly interdisciplinary challenges – often too complex for a single technician on site. At the same time, the pressure to perform in time is increasing as well.

Remote assistance solutions upgrade those required capabilities “at the push of a button” – however, demand minimally invasive interaction concepts in software and hardware. A view from the practice.
