The digitalization of production processes and problem management is now an essential component of industrial transformation, driven by the need for higher efficiency, quality, and faster incident resolution. Many manufacturing companies, especially in the automotive industry, face the challenge of integrating technologies that enable automated real-time data collection and analysis and systematic problem identification and resolution. Such solutions are crucial for maintaining competitiveness, minimizing downtime, and improving production quality in the long term.
Client
Problem: Inefficient identification of production issues
The client faced the challenge of efficiently identifying and resolving production issues to improve the continuity and quality of production. The manual method of recording incidents was time-consuming and error-prone, making it difficult to accurately track the occurrence and causes of issues. They needed a centralized digital solution to enable automated incident management, systematic data collection, and analysis to support decision-making.
Solution: Digitalization of the problem-solving process
Aspecta has developed and uses its product Solvedio to digitalize clients' agendas. In this case, it is a solution for managing issues in the production process, serving as a tool to improve efficiency and automation in managing problem identification and resolution in manufacturing.
Digitalization of problem-solving in manufacturing enables:
- Automated data collection and classification – Using mobile devices, employees record issues in real-time, with each case being classified and localized.
- Systematic problem-solving process – The platform provides clearly defined steps for each issue, from recording to resolution, capturing precise data that is later used for analysis and process improvement.
- Root cause analysis tools – Solvedio integrates tools such as 5 Whys and Fishbone to help identify the root cause of issues and support the team in effective problem-solving.
- Real-time incident tracking and visualization – Managers can monitor the status and progress of problem resolution, increasing response speed to emerging issues and reducing production downtime.
Results: Inefficient identification of production issues
Digitalization brought significant improvements for the client in addressing production issues and overall quality enhancement. The digitalized process enabled:
✓ Accelerated problem-solving process: The Solvedio system enables data collection, analysis, and decision-making automation in problem-solving procedures, leading to faster and more precise problem resolution and reducing production downtime.
✓ Increased efficiency: Solvedio enhances the efficiency of the problem-solving process through automatic classification and incident recognition, significantly reducing the time needed for resolution and ensuring smooth production flow.
✓ Precise localization and problem analysis: The platform allows for accurate localization of issues within the production process, increasing the accuracy of problem identification and reducing the risk of recurring issues. This step significantly contributes to the long-term quality of production processes.
✓ Enhanced product quality: Timely problem resolution and support in identifying root causes enable the production of higher-quality products. Solvedio helps quickly identify and address issues that could negatively impact the final product's quality.
✓ Improved transparency and tracking: Solvedio allows for real-time monitoring of the status of individual incidents, enhancing the ability to respond quickly to new issues and contributing to overall product safety.
✓ Enhanced data analysis: The system enables systematic collection and analysis of large amounts of data, improving understanding of issues and facilitating the development of suitable solutions to support long-term production process improvement.
Aspecta encouraged the client to adopt a proactive approach to managing production issues, which improved the efficiency of issue resolution and enhanced overall satisfaction with the stability and quality of the production process.
Conclusion
