Project description

  1. The client came to us to take over the problematic project from the current contractor, which as a result of many iterations was not able to provide the client with a stable BI (Business Intelligence) system with functional elements for informing the production area (MES Manufacturing Execution System). The client wanted to complete the project with the final satisfactory result of cooperation.
  2. Our main task was to provide a solution for advanced data analysis and advanced BI and MES (Business Intelligence, Manufacturing Execution System) reporting.
  3. Due to the company's emphasis on service quality, the company decided to implement a project that aimed to increase consumer satisfaction rates with their food products thanks to conclusions drawn from advanced analyzes of actual production data. Thanks to the integrated system for processing real production data, the company wanted to ensure even better quality of its food products.
Project description

Customer challenges

  1. Implementation of an IT solution that will be used to improve production processes on the basis of advanced analyzes of production processes, with such a large and complex production. It is practically impossible to perform advanced analyzes without a dedicated IT solution
  2. Effective acquisition of software for advanced analysis of real production data, thanks to which the customer will be able to evaluate production processes and implement improvements in production processes based on these analyzes
  3. The client's main challenge was to complete and save the project, which was lost to failure
  4. Thus, the client was looking for a company that would undertake the rescue of an extremely difficult and complex project

  2. Flexible approach to the client - Focus on remote work and work at the client's premises only in the case of initial analytical work on complex topics
  3. Application of IT business analysis (parallel analysis and design) - We conducted an extended business analysis workshop with the client, thanks to which we eliminated redundant, unnecessary activities. The workshop was preceded by an analysis of the achievements of the previous contractor's work, in particular the evaluation of the architecture of the proposed solution
