Business Process Optimization (BPO)

FACTSHEET: Business Process Optimization (BPO)

Solution

How does it work?

The solutions allows for scenario verification for factory process changes before implementation. Based on descriptions and targets from the user, the solution calculates if the desired target is feasible to achieve, and if so, how to do this.

The production manager collects the required information on the agents in the factory and feeds this to the software module. The module runs the analysis and delivers the scenario outcome in the form of a report.

What problem does it solve?

What is needed to use it?

It helps factories run scenarios before making investment decisions. Therefor it contributes to the knowledge to base decisions on.

A computer with an internet connection and a person to feed the required information to the program.

Business Process Optimization

The Business Process Optimization (BPO) module determines an optimized solution to the optimized motion task sequencing problem. BPO is focused on actions that have to be executed by factory floor agents, meaning any logistic entity (e.g., humans, AGVs, etc.), to carry out logistics motion tasks.

Process Optimization

The objective of Process Optimisation is to perform process quality and efficiency optimisation using nonlinear model predictive control. The system learns the dynamics of the production process, and then it can predict the process output quality metrics given the current values for the control parameters.
