Use Case: External project management for automated battery module production
Battery production
Objectives and challenges:
To optimize battery production in China through automation solutions, an additional project manager will be appointed to relieve the “Assembly” subproject manager and take over on-site coordination. The goal is to make work progress in this automation project more transparent, resolve errors sustainably, and prevent bottlenecks early on.
Challenges:
- Short implementation time of the automation solution leads to high project complexity and requires quick decisions
- Structural changes during commissioning affect efficiency and require flexible adjustments
- Coordination between equipment suppliers, subcontractors and internal teams to ensure smooth operations
- Complex root cause analysis of errors that occur for sustainable problem resolution, as well as proactive error and bottleneck prevention to stabilize the project
- Travel restrictions due to the Corona pandemic led to changing capacity bottlenecks
About support in planning an automation project:
The external project manager strengthens the project structure for this automation project and supports the structured root cause analysis of problems in the production process. This allows for the efficient integration of measures for short-term and sustainable troubleshooting into the ongoing operation of the automated production. External coordination ensures targeted optimization, particularly in the case of cross-departmental weaknesses in project execution.
Results:
- Management reports for transparency of work progress
- Detailed work plan for capacity control during commissioning
- Catalogues of measures for sustainable error prevention
