Many people who work in manufacturing don’t necessarily use computers on a daily basis. Workers need to get their jobs done accurately and efficiently. Having a manufacturing intranet in SharePoint Online can make this a lot easier. SharePoint Online is part of Office 365 which has numerous tools for sharing information with your workforce in the plants.
A key example is being able to rapidly collect and share information with people on their phones. SharePoint Online integrated with Microsoft Forms, which allows people with low technical acumen to create beautiful forms or surveys to gather information from people, including anonymous surveys. That information can be routed to review or notifications to emails, MS Planner tasks, and even Microsoft Teams posts using Power Automate.
Technologies Used

Why We Like This Manufacturing Intranet in SharePoint Online Design Example
The below example showcases important manufacturing documents being displayed in SharePoint Online as well as Microsoft Teams. It also shows those same important files in a mobile layout on a phone. Setting up a document repository for procedures, guides, drawing, and more is easy once you are organized and geared up properly in SharePoint Online.
Additionally, you can rapidly create data collection forms for manufacturing or other business processes, such as a catering form in MS Forms. A Microsoft Form can collect that data and notify the person who created the form instantly to help make important decisions such as what is for lunch!
