About Kawasaki Motores de México

Kawasaki Motores de México S.A. de C.V. is a leading company in the automotive sector, dedicated to the manufacturing and distribution of motorcycles and other high-performance motorized products. With a workforce of 1,200 employees and the collaboration of 50 contractor companies, it manages the annual access of approximately 400 external workers to its facilities.

Ensuring safety, regulatory compliance, and operational efficiency in contractor management was a key challenge for the company, which was looking for an innovative solution to optimize its processes. 

In a highly regulated environment like the automotive industry, safety and compliance are not optional: they are a priority.

The challenge: when Managing Contractors Becomes a Burden

Before implementing Twind, Kawasaki Motores de México managed its contractors' documentation manually, through emails and individual reviews. This system presented several drawbacks:


  • Lack of centralized control over documentation.
  • Slow and bureaucratic entry processes.
  • Difficulty in effectively tracking external personnel.

Given that safety and regulatory compliance are priorities within the automotive sector, the company needed a tool that would allow it to manage its contractors' information efficiently and securely. It was clear that they needed a more agile, secure, and modern solution.

Objectives

Improve control in contractor administration

Streamline authorization and access processes for external personnel

Ensure the availability and validity of documentation

Strategy and Actions: How They Transformed Their Process

  1. Document Centralization with Twind
    All contractor documentation was digitized and centralized on a single platform. This relieved the administrative burden on the EHS team and improved traceability.
  1. Automation of Daily Plant Access Thanks to Twind
    The company was able to control, in real time, which external workers were authorized to enter, ensuring that only those with valid documentation could do so.
  1. Advisory and Training for Contractor Companies
    Advisory sessions were held to ensure that contractor companies correctly used the platform and complied with access requirements.

Why Twind?

Because we offered exactly what they needed:

Total Digitization

Real-Time Control

Compliance without Manual Effort

The Reflected Change

Since implementing Twind, Kawasaki Motores has achieved:


  • 75% improvement in contractor document control.
  • Much faster plant entry processes, optimizing operational times.
  • Greater traceability and visibility into the status of external personnel, facilitating real-time decisions.



The Key Feature:

Automatic Document Review with AI

One of the elements most valued by the Kawasaki team is the automatic document validation with artificial intelligence. With this feature, they can now:

  • Detect expired documents within seconds, avoiding delays and risks of non-compliance.
  • Automate requirement verification according to customized regulations, ensuring compliance without manual effort.
  • Offer real-time alerts so that safety and compliance personnel can act immediately.

The Result: Fewer Errors, Fewer Risks, and More Peace of Mind

Twind has allowed Kawasaki Motores to move from a manual and fragmented management process to a digitized, automated, and secure one. Today, its EHS team works with more focus, less stress, and greater control.
