Why Administrate

Purpose-built manufacturing training management system

Manufacturing training is complex. It’s a highly regulated, hands-on, and often global enterprise. Administrate is designed to manage every moving part, from equipment training and compliance to multi-site scheduling and system integration.

Skills-based schedules

Use training requirements, not just time slots, to automate complex, shift-based schedules. Administrate ensures the right people get the right training, at the right time, without scheduling conflicts.

Connect LMS, eQMS and ERP

Connect Administrate’s TMS to the systems you already use, like SAP, SuccessFactors, and your Electronic Quality Management Systems (eQMS).

Centralize everything

Capture every training record in one system to support OSHA, ISO, and EPA requirements. Maintain full traceability for every learner, instructor, and session—no more spreadsheet chaos.

Operate globally

Standardize training, support local languages, meet compliance needs, and easily access instructor availability. Whether you manage three plants or thirty, Administrate adapts to your global footprint.

Standardize training operations across every region like Wilmington PLC did

  • Onboarded new employees 47% faster.
  • Gave over 100,000 learners a consistent experience. This could help provide you with additional workforce flexibility and retain workers across regions.
  • Standardized reporting with the metrics that mattered regardless of where the training was held and which team scheduled it.

Before Administrate, the learner experience was very inconsistent—as was our data, reporting, and processes management. Now, Administrate acts as our source of truth for data, handles planning and scheduling, and gives a reliable platform on which we will build new learner experiences.
