Digitisation As a Road to Efficiency

MAN energy solutions is a turbine and compressor manufacturer based in Germany. The company faces — similar to the entire mechanical engineering sector — growing pressure to increase its productivity, efficiency and time to market. The envisioned approach to accomplishing this included digital initiatives such as documenting and automating quality assurance processes to improve overall efficiency.

Digitisation was defined as one of MAN’s strategic cornerstones, preparing MAN for the future. As one of theses first “fast-track” projects, Monstarlab Berlin built — in cooperation with MAN — a solution for quality assurance documentation. The aim was to deliver a solution with very strict budget and time constraints.

With the Right Resources, MVPs Can Be Built in Less Than a Month

The Swift Vapor Framework, a proven technology from the Monstarlab tech stack, was used to build the backend infrastructure. For the frontend, the templating language Leaf and the Monstarlab Admin Panel were used. Through four one-week sprints, MAN Energy Solutions and Monstarlab collaborated to build an MVP.

A Shift from Paperwork to Innovation

In 25 days, across four sprints, Monstarlab was able to provide a robust solution and a web-based MVP for planners, inspectors and foremen. The MVP allows engineers to document quality assurance in the cloud via tablet or PC and spend their time on the development of new products. Paperwork was reduced by approximately 50%. The implementation of further features and the roll-out to other plants is underway.
