KnowledgeOps → Governed retrieval → Every workflowKnowledgeOps

Capture once.Govern once. Reuse everywhere.

Turbine turns SOPs, manuals, videos, and tribal knowledge into a governed repository—then powers every product through the same semantic retrieval layer.

How it works
3-step governed flow
Governed RepositorySOPsManualsVideosTribal knowledge
Capture

  • SOPs, manuals, videos
  • Tribal knowledge
  • One governed repository
Govern
Once
  • Versioning
  • Tagging
  • Permissions

  • Semantic retrieval
  • Same knowledge base
  • Powers every product
Reuse Everywhere means one knowledge base powers AI Assistants, Apprentage, LearningOps, ReportingOps, and more—without duplicating content.
Result: faster onboarding, consistent answers, and audit-ready proof—because every workflow pulls from the same governed source.

KnowledgeOps

The Governed Foundation for Everything You Build

Capture knowledge once. Embed it into a managed vector database. Retrieve it with semantic search—anchored to governance rules.

  • Centralize SOPs, manuals, videos, and tribal knowledge with versioning, tagging, and permissions
  • Content embeds into a vectorized database—retrievable via semantic search, controlled by org boundaries
  • Retrieval uses context + policy: filters by topic, difficulty, and objective—answers stay anchored to approved material
  • Updates propagate consistently: knowledge → assistants → learning → reporting

LearningOps

Knowledge Becomes
Instruction—Automatically

Governed retrieval converts your KnowledgeOps content into lesson plans, activities, rubrics, and visuals—turning stored knowledge into instruction, not a dead repository.

  • Same knowledge source: training draws from the same governed vector database as assistants
  • Auto-generated curricula:employer-specific courses from manuals, SOPs, and recordings
  • Standards-ready export: SCORM/xAPI packages for TurbineLMS or your existing LMS
  • Real-time tracking, assessments, and ROI

AI Assistants

Managed AI Assistants
Powered by Your Governed Knowledge

Assistants draw from the same vectorized knowledge layer—so different roles safely use different slices of the same underlying knowledge store.

  • Governed retrieval: answers anchored to your approved docs, videos, and SOPs
  • Management controls: prompt versioning, guardrails, namespace control, and usage monitoring
  • Multi-role deployment: operators, supervisors, HR, and maintenance each get tailored access
  • 24/7 on-demand answers reduce downtime and accelerate learning in the flow of work

  • Voice-first capture: hands-free logging of tasks, observations, and equipment insights
  • Auto-classification: feeds KnowledgeOps libraries and the governed vector database
  • Downstream streaming: captured knowledge flows into courses, checklists, and compliance workflows
  • Expertise escapes silos—becomes institutional memory

VELA

Evidence-Grade OJT

Every Record Has a Transcript. Every Transcript Matters.

VELA delivers 100% transcript coverage across thousands of real-world OJT records—no blank logs, no missing narratives.

Unlike traditional logbooks that merely record hours, VELA ensures what gets logged is useful, auditable, and defensible. The Transcript Quality Index (TQI) evaluates each entry for evidence strength—detecting action verbs, measurements, outcomes, and role-specific technical language.

  • Built-in quality intelligence distinguishes minimal notes from audit-grade narratives
  • Approval without friction—supervisors verify participation while quality intelligence confirms evidence strength
  • Coaching without policing—identifies entries needing improvement for supportive, targeted guidance

Turbine Solves 8 Systemic Workforce Problems

1.

Disconnected Training, SOPs, and Compliance

Problem: Employers rely on siloed tools to manage training, job tasks, documentation, and audits.

Turbine Solution: A unified platform integrating LMS, OJT tracking, SOP delivery, voice capture, and compliance in one system. See Platform, TurbineLMS, and VELA.

2.

Manual, Inefficient Administrative Work

Problem: Staff spend hours tracking time, managing forms, and compiling reports.

Turbine Solution: Automates workflows using Otto, Report Agent, and Smart Notifications. Cuts admin time and increases accuracy.

3.

Slow and Uneven Onboarding

Problem: New hires ramp slowly due to inconsistent mentoring and unclear skill paths.

Turbine Solution: Competency-based onboarding via TurbineLMS, Career Pathways, and LearningOps. Drives faster, more consistent productivity.

4.

Limited Workforce Intelligence

Problem: Leaders lack real-time visibility into training status, compliance, or skill readiness.

Turbine Solution: Dashboards and analytics from ReportingOps and Report Agent surface progress, gaps, and ROI.

5.

Field Knowledge Stuck in Silos

Problem: Critical on-the-job knowledge is undocumented or hard to access across teams.

Turbine Solution: VELA and KnowledgeOps capture voice logs and experiential know-how, turning tacit expertise into searchable, reusable assets. Learn more in Knowledge Management.

6.

Disjointed Apprenticeship Operations

Problem: Sponsors and employers struggle to manage paperwork, reporting, and tracking across partners.

Turbine Solution: Apprentage centralizes registration, WIOA/PIRL tracking, time logs, and retention — all built on the Turbine platform.

7.

Audit Stress & Compliance Risk

Problem: High-stakes audits (WIOA, SOC2, Perkins) are difficult due to scattered documentation and manual prep.

Turbine Solution: AI-powered validation, automated audit workflows via Otto and ComplianceOps. See Standards & Compliance.

8.

Barriers to Scaling Workforce Strategy

Problem: Employers want to grow and retain talent but lack systems to scale learning, mentoring, and career growth.

Turbine Solution: Train & Retain integrates analytics, microlearning, and mentoring into scalable development programs. Explore Career Pathways and TurbineLMS.
