When first deploying Amper, many customers understandably want to test the solution out on a smaller scale. You may only have Amper installed on a few machines, but have more assets that have yet to be connected.
If you want unified data, it may be time to consider connecting the rest of your machines. But you may be asking yourself, “is it really worth my time?”
In this article, we’ll dive into reasons why factory-wide Amper adoption is worth it—creating value by consolidating and streamlining your operations moving forward.
This Article walks you through parts of the Onboarding phase of this plan!

From our collective industry experience and the success stories from some of our customers, we have identified 3 factors that are imperative to accomplishing Change Management. Check out the article below on the 3 C’s of Change Management.
🔑 5 Keys to Success - The Amper team took a look at which customers were maximizing their use of the system, and found 5 key factors that played a role in a successful implementation and overall adoption.
1. Engaged Champion
A Champion for the project at a high level (plant manager) who looks at the data and pushes the team on Amper goals
2. Project Owner vs. Champion
The main project owner is not that same person at a high level– the high level person just doesn’t have the time
3. KPI Integration
Amper Utilization or OEE data incorporated into plant KPI’s– looked at daily/weekly
4. Data Entry Enforcement
Operations Supervisor or Leads are involved in using data and making sure it’s entered
5. Recurring Meetings
Recurring meetings with the CSM to train, understand best practices, and get updates on new features
