When I came to F\u00e5rbo, some of the things I wanted to contribute to were better management and follow-up, and then with the help of digital technology and a little later with AI tools. Among other things, we have an advanced AI agent that handles customer orders, reads emails and extracts information that feeds our ERP system. Other AI agents handle supplier orders, optimize inventory, and assist production. All this contributes to our quality focus through fewer errors and higher efficiency.    <\/p>\n\n<p>&#8211; The ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001 certification is both a guarantee and a carrot for my and my colleagues&#8217; continued work with quality, environment and work environment. This gives us confidence and competitiveness in the market,&#8221; Mikael concludes. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":5664,"template":"","news-categories":[],"class_list":["post-5670","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/farbomanufacturing.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news\/5670","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/farbomanufacturing.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/farbomanufacturing.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/news"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/farbomanufacturing.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5664"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/farbomanufacturing.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5670"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"news-categories","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/farbomanufacturing.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news-categories?post=5670"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
