Why offboarding documentation needs an upgrade
With traditional handover documents, much of the practical know-how gets lost when experienced employees leave. The small but crucial details rarely make it onto paper. This leads to:
- Loss of role- and process-specific expertise
- Frequent follow-up questions during handovers
- Slow ramp-up of replacements
- Quality deviations and avoidable downtime
Video-based offboarding guides give successors clear and contextual explanations of tasks, decisions and responsibilities. This makes complex knowledge easy to understand and repeat.
Benefits of knowledge management in production:
- Capture and preserve essential knowledge before it leaves the company
- Shorten ramp-up times for new or temporary staff
- Avoid disruptions caused by incomplete handovers
- Ensure consistent execution across teams, departments and locations
- Increase clarity, accountability and confidence during transitions
What is a video-based instruction manual?
