The client faced challenges with their production rate tracking and baseline adjustment processes, both of which are connected to logistics data analysis. The manual, labor-intensive procedures led to delays, errors, and inconsistencies in production data. This hindered efficient decision-making and risked overproduction or underproduction, impacting the overall supply chain performance. The lack of automated data validation, common templates, and governance created new possibilities for creating new, robust solutions to standardize and streamline these processes across various locations.
Appsilon developed two R Shiny applications to address these challenges.
App#1 standardized the production rate templates and automated data validation, ensuring compliance with mandatory fields and providing instant feedback to users. This reduced manual errors and enhanced data integrity.
App #2 enabled planners to accurately adjust and track production targets weekly, replacing the error-prone manual processes with a streamlined, simple interface. Both applications included comprehensive documentation and training for the client's data analytics and support team to ensure a smooth transition and user adoption in the future.
