Productive Engineers = Faster To Market
Improve efficiency and process methods to help Engineers be more productive.
In order to accelerate product development, product engineers need ways to save time and be more productive. At SPK, we take this seriously. By example, with one client, we saved 500,000 clicks by engineers through automating selected processes. This automation enabled engineers to focus more on the products they were producing and less time on how to use the software and follow the processes. The removal of manual work is our specialty and we can help find ways to maximize engineering time no matter what the task.
