Dashboards are important visual aids for decision-makers to quickly and easily evaluate important key performance indicators and thus identify trends. Our customer, one of the world's largest automotive manufacturers, approached us with the task of expanding and redesigning the group's own dashboarding based on the existing SAP FIORI applications. A challenging task in an environment where even small mistakes can have serious consequences

One of the core tasks was to comprehensively map the KPI analysis graphically and to record the efficiency level of manufacturing and production. The dashboard solution we developed is used in the Group as part of the cost analysis of vehicle, construction and model series.

Agile development in a highly sensitive environment

In implementing the challenges, our specialists used their extensive experience in SAP dashboarding and KPI analysis. As certified SAP FIORI/UI5 developers, they were able to consistently implement the required results.

In developing the new dashboards, we relied on the tried-and-tested SCRUM principles in close consultation with the specialist departments involved. The Group updates the programs used in its environments to the latest versions on a quarterly basis. Our many years of expertise in agile software development according to SCRUM enabled us to meet maximum quality assurance standards despite these short development cycles.

The scope of our developments played a decisive role in all innovations introduced. In a highly competitive environment such as the automotive industry, a decision based on incorrect data can have consequences worth millions. In addition, the work was carried out at a time when the introduction of new model series was being driven forward with the highest priority.

Modern dashboards and consistent data situation

Despite the complex initial situation, our engineers were able to successfully implement the modernization of the Group's own dashboarding during ongoing operations. Although the aggregation of KPIs is associated with greater effort due to the non-uniform system architecture group-wide, the dashboarding solution we created supports the decision-makers in optimizing the production processes.
