About

Mercateam has proven in the last 4 years its aptitude to bring a bright answer to new big challenges faced by the industry:

·  an aging workforce;

We have developed a SaaS solution based on the latest technologies for mapping skills on production sites and organize know-how.

This has led to a number of other key features managed by Mercateam, including:

·  smart planning of work assignments under constraints;
·  a training module adapted to the operational workforce;
·  a workforce strategic planning.

Mercateam had a strong commercial track record in the last 3 years and supports over 150 industrial sites, among which LVMH, Andros, Richemond, Dior, LISI, Collins Aerospace, etc… in 12 different countries, with his 360 industrial workforce-centric solution.
