　　Manufacturing Work Instructions:

　　o The Richmond plants lack robust manufacturing documentation for shop floor employees. This documentation is critical for ensuring the plant is producing a consistent product that conform to all applicable safety, quality, and statutory regulations. The scope of this project will be to identify all tasks that are missing manufacturing documentation, work with operations and engineering to create new documentation packages, then deploy the information to the shop floor. Richmond is also investigating to use of augmented reality tools for training applications, specifically the Microsoft Holo Lense 2. The project leader will review the capabilities of the Holo Lense and prepare a report for how this technology can be used at Richmond.

　　In-process Inspections and Test Data Management

　　o The Richmond plants support data center customers who have very high standards for product quality. The demands of these customers have created the need for Richmond to improve its in-process quality inspections. Additionally, Richmond lacks a standardized tool for capturing in-process quality inspection and final test data. Eaton has an application for test data management called PCaT however implementation of this software is complex and will require coordination with quality, engineering, and IT.
