Overview

A Fortune Global 500 chemical manufacturer faced high maintenance costs, fragmented systems, and limited project visibility. Aligned Automation developed a configurable web-based Engineering Service Request (ESR) application with role-based controls and a unified repository, achieving 10% error reduction, 15-20% cost savings, and a 50-100% increase in user adoption within the first year.

Challenges

  • Fragmented systems: multiple sites utilized locally developed, non-scalable applications.
  • Limited visibility: no unified view of all engineering projects across various locations.
  • High maintenance costs: rest lack of standardization: inconsistent project management processes and metrics.
  • RCEs spent: on maintaining multiple, disparate applications.

Value Delivered

  • Configurable web application: developed a web-based engineering service request (ESR) application that is fully configurable to meet site-specific requirements.
  • Role-based access control: implemented role-based access controls to restrict and enable functionalities based on user roles within the organization or project.
  • Unified repository: created a centralized database for all engineering projects, enabling future insights into key learnings, challenges, costs, and durations.
