A performance platform within Nexans’ global digital transformation

Nexans is transforming its manufacturing footprint towards Industry 4.0, combining several key building blocks: automation, data infrastructure, predictive maintenance and digital performance management on the shop floor.

Within this transformation, Fabriq is the platform selected by Nexans to digitize its performance management standard across 40 plants worldwide.

At Group level, Schneider Electric is Nexans’ partner for the overall digital and industrial transformation (systems, integration, innovation). Fabriq is one of the operational components of this broader journey, used daily by production teams.

What Fabriq brings to Nexans’ US plants

In Nexans’ US plants, Fabriq replaces paper boards with real‑time digital performance boards directly on the shop floor. It helps teams:

• monitor safety, quality, delivery and cost indicators,
• structure communication during shift handovers,
• log incidents and follow up on corrective actions.

Daily routines – checks, basic maintenance, safety and housekeeping audits – are digitized and standardized, making it easier for operators and front‑line managers to focus on performance.
