IT Vendor

Analysis: A construction company simultaneously implementing many investments in different cities and countries had difficulties in assessing its financial situation. This problem resulted from the lack of an appropriate, for its scale, method of organizing and managing information on implemented investments and financial data of special purpose vehicles over time and correlation with the Management Board Budget, which resulted in problems with financial liquidity.

Solution: Preparation of an ERP class system for mobile devices for field workers and workstations for office workers based on cloud architecture using a mobile and browser application. The system allows for independent management of budgets of special purpose vehicles, including investment budgets and transfer of financial results of companies over time to the Budget of the Management Board of the parent company, which allows for assessment of the current and planned financial situation. In turn, budgeting mechanisms allow for quick and efficient bidding and conducting analytics based on the history of completed investments, which, combined with the subcontractor ranking system, supports managers responsible for preparing documentation and offers and ultimately those responsible for the accepted investment in selecting the best subcontractors and materials – including forecasting cost changes in relation to historical data.

Technologies: Workstations, industrial tablets, smartphones, cloud servers, web and mobile applications.

Analysis: The company, which worked for its clients on an hourly basis, found itself with increasing scale in a situation where each additional team member caused a decrease in profits per employee on a monthly basis. This forced the decision to block further employment growth for fear of leading to a situation in which the risk of the contract in relation to the potential profit would be unacceptable.

Solution: Preparation of an IT system, in the form of a desktop and web application, where employees have structured work schedules and assignment to client projects, thanks to which after starting the workstation, the system allows for very fast switching between tasks and thanks to this automatic logging of time spent for a given client. As a result, data is collected in real time, and the time needed to generate hourly reports for clients is many times shorter: originally, preparing to settle 12 full-time positions took 16 hours per month, currently settling 45 full-time positions takes 2 hours and each report results from a template agreed with the client, which results in further time savings at subsequent stages of settlement resulting from a systematized procedure.

Technologies: QR code printers and labelers, workstations, smartphones, cloud and local servers, web and window applications.

Analysis: The cosmetics manufacturer wanted to develop its product range while using its own warehouses and its own online sales system. The existing solution only allowed the use of one warehouse per store, and eventually there were plans to launch sales of other product lines as separate brands – there was a concern about the time needed to coordinate sales from different stores and warehouses, which would force the sales and logistics team to expand.

Solution: Creation of an integrated IT system consisting of an e-commerce solution, ERP system and WMS, which allows for sales in a multi-store system using multiple warehouses in different locations. Each new product line is a separate brand sold within a different online store, however, all stores can use multiple physical warehouses, have different price lists, and the whole is managed from one Panel, which significantly facilitates sales coordination and reduces the required warehouse space. An additional advantage is the fact that each subsequent store can be based on the same project of the arrangement of functional elements of the interface for buyers, thanks to which launching another one is only a fraction of the price of the first, fully functional store (less than 10% of the initial store, without restrictions on the number of subsequent stores).

Technologies: Workstations, smartphones, cloud and local servers, web application.

Analysis: The printer filament manufacturer is dynamically developing its production capabilities, which allows it to meet the needs of its distributors in the Central European region, but also to think about expanding into Western European markets. In connection with this, problems resulting from low automation and digitization of the post-production process have become apparent, and specifically, controlling the appropriate separation of goods ready to be divided into saleable items for the B2C customer.

Solution: Design and implementation of an integrated IT system that will improve the division of a finished
semi-finished product into a final product for a B2B and B2C client. A system consisting of devices (scales, RFID gates and readers, barcode
printers and labelers, and IT equipment: industrial tablets, workstations, TVs, servers) was created for the post-production warehouse, integrated with the MES system, thanks to which the process was controlled from order acceptance, through its planning within the existing machinery park in relation to the current and planned occupancy of production lines, and consequently improving the efficiency and utilization of equipment operating time. The client not only increased processing capacity, but also reduced the amount of waste, which is now an assortment for the B2C client, and is not useful in B2B sales – all supplied by one warehouse and managed from one administration panel.

Technologies: Artificial intelligence, production lines, filament winders, building access system, QR code printers and labelers, RFID gates and readers, workstations, smartphones, cloud and local servers, web and mobile application.

Analysis: The growing medical company was struggling with the difficulty of coordinating the work of facilities with the same profile. The scaling and lack of coordination of its customer queue meant that the queues in different facilities were of different lengths, although customers could use any of them. An additional problem was the different types and versions of the operating systems of the medical devices on which the diagnostics were performed and from which the results were needed in different facilities – including partner ones.

Solution: We designed and implemented an integrated IT system for queuing and coordinating the work of facilities using similar diagnostic devices, while allowing for the free exchange of medical documentation between facilities in real time. The entire system was based on servers and applications that mediate the exchange and conversion of medical images in various formats and from multiple operating systems to a uniform version, which is stored and made available from a central data warehouse thanks to a custom-made web application. This allowed for averaging the length of patient queues in individual facilities operating in the same region, which positively impacted the return on investment in the machine park consisting of Gamma Cameras. The staff can freely manage queues and decide on the occupancy of the machine park of a given facility.

Technologies: Artificial intelligence, medical facility devices – gamma cameras, barcode printers and labelers, workstations, smartphones, local servers, web application.
