Take training from the classroom to the floor

Alchemy Playbook® and Alchemy Coach™, in the Intertek Alchemy App, standardize on-the-job training, prove it stuck, and show who can run every task. Works on iOS, Android, and Windows devices, even without Wi-Fi.

Our cross-functional training strategy could have never become a reality without Playbook. The tools make on-the-job training and learning incredibly efficient.

See the Intertek Alchemy App in action

Train your frontline from anywhere on-the-floor, verify the work is getting done correctly, and know who’s qualified, all in one app. Watch how it all comes together.

Consistent on-the-job training on every shift

An SOP binder can’t show someone how the job is done, and on-the-job training shouldn’t depend on who’s teaching. Playbook records your best people doing it the right way, so every worker learns the same approved steps, and skills management stays current.

With Alchemy Playbook:

  • Record video and photos of experienced employees doing the task correctly
  • Deliver digital work instructions where the work happens, not from an SOP binder
  • Stop shortcuts and bad habits from spreading through job shadowing
  • See who’s qualified for any task, so you can cover an absence fast
  • Track each employee’s progress toward their next qualification

Behavior validation that proves training stuck

Training records show an employee took the course. Coach shows whether they're applying what they learned on the floor. Supervisors use pre-built observations to watch the work, confirm it matches SOPs and document the result.

With Alchemy Coach:

  • Verify and document performance against SOPs and regulatory requirements, with records ready for your next audit
  • Use customizable Intertek Alchemy observations, or build your own
  • Give supervisors scripted corrective actions to use when a step is missed
  • Reinforce training and introduce new skills through regular check-ins
  • Build, monitor, and track coaching plans for each employee

“Prior to Playbook, it was all tribal knowledge, which as time goes on will leave out three or four different steps. Playbook fixes that.”

Senior EHS Manager, Ajinomoto North America

Classroom and floor, connected

The Alchemy Training Platform is purpose-built for manufacturing: training delivery and audit-ready tracking. The Intertek Alchemy App covers the floor: Playbook and Coach turn training into verifiable performance on the plant floor. Together with Intertek Alchemy’s courseware and consulting, they form the Frontline Performance System.

Frequently asked questions

Playbook builds and tracks skills: it standardizes on-the-job training and records who is qualified for each task. Coach verifies behavior: supervisors use it to observe employees on the floor, confirm they’re following the SOP, and coach when they aren’t. Both live in the Intertek Alchemy App.
