Successful Scaling of an R&D Team

Successfully scaling up an R&D team is a challenge, the amount of information and data from machines, planned and executed experiments and result analysis increases very rapidly as more people become involved. To efficiently coordinate workflows, and to reduce the time needed to integrate new knowledge into the production chain, it is important to invest in the structured dissemination and automation of results, documentation and core knowledge from an early stage.

Applied Nanolayers recognized the need to integrate their R&D activities early in their collaboration. After investigating several different solutions, they decided to adopt the XperiDesk Process Development Execution System. This enabled seamless collaboration, communication, documentation and knowledge management.
