A solution has been implemented for a customer from the automotive industry. Due to the signed NDA, it is not possible to appoint our customer.
Problems:
- Changing legal requirements, for example, rehabilitation for workers in a loud environment.
- Increasing costs for physical and psychical damage and rehabilitations on workers.
- Inability to identify the creator of the manufacturing error. Identification of deficiencies, specific employees for training needs.
- Unfair distribution of bonuses for employees.
- Inefficient employee planning. Inability to respond to change, such as the absence of an employee.
Based on a thorough analysis of the customer’s site, we designed and implemented an integrated information system. This solution is a decision support system (DSS) that provides real-time information based on real-time data from production.
This system is Integrated to:
- Attendance system – Information on absences, real arrival, and movement of the employee.
- Card system – Use existing employee cards to identify the employee’s position and activities in the production process. Of course, in real-time.
- Integration into the production process (linking information about what is produced with information about who works)
- HR system (In this case SAP system
Integration, data processing, and mathematical modeling allows us to create new processes as:
- Planning worker rotations. Job planning based on legal requirements (Maximum time in a loud environment, etc.), employee skills, and current production needs. The system allows a real-time response to change (for example, the absence of an employee).
- Work monitoring and real-time information for supervisors and managers.
- Quality monitoring.
- Calculations of allowances, bonus, overtime, and rehabilitation
