FAQs on Knowledge Loss in Manufacturing

What happens when manufacturers don’t capture knowledge before employees retire?
The result is longer downtime, inconsistent execution across shifts, and costly mistakes that impact customers and profitability. Over time, the Knowledge Walkout compounds into lost competitiveness.
How are manufacturers currently trying to address knowledge loss?
Most rely on shadowing, paper manuals, or basic training programs. These are limited—they don’t scale, and they don’t preserve the why behind expert decisions. And until now, AI-powered solutions have focused only on written documentation, which fails to capture the most critical knowledge — tacit knowledge — that keeps operations running.
How can Murray help with the manufacturing skills gap?
Murray can capture, organize, and deliver expertise in real time. Instead of losing knowledge when employees leave, manufacturers create a living, evolving knowledge base that’s available on demand to every operator.
Who benefits most from solving knowledge loss—sometimes called the ‘knowledge walkout’?
Everyone in the organization gains. Executives see greater resilience and fewer costly disruptions. Seasoned experts spend less time answering routine questions and more time solving unique problems. And the newer generation workers solve problems faster, building confidence on the floor.
