挑战
GG Group 是一家全球电缆、电线和线束制造商，在预算分配和流程标准化方面面临着重大挑战。该公司严重依赖电子表格和纸质表格来准备预算和分配资源，这导致状态会议缺乏可见性并浪费时间。由于员工采用不同的项目管理方法，该公司的运营变得分散。此外，GG Group 还面临着确保全球 4,500 名员工的一致性的挑战。该公司的关键工程流程“变体开发”在很大程度上依赖于员工个人及其对各种流程的个人知识。该流程耗时 6 至 12 个月，并且需要跨多个地点的 100 多名员工。
关于客户
GG Group，也称为Gebauer & Griller，是全球领先的电缆、电线和线束制造商。该公司的产品用于当今大多数车辆以及世界上许多电梯、变压器、电机和光伏阵列。 GG Group 成立于 1940 年，是一家家族经营的原材料和半成品贸易机构，此后将其产品线和办公地点扩展到 13 个不同地点，包括美国、德国、印度、中国和墨西哥。该公司在全球拥有 4,500 名员工。
解决方案
GG Group 采用 K2 软件来转变其财务审批流程和变体开发。该软件加速了财务审批流程，将投资请求的时间缩短了一半，每年节省了大量的员工工作时间。这带来了更快的业务决策、更具战略性的资金分配以及对运营的即时可见性。在流程标准化方面，K2 Software 在变体开发中自动化了多达 60 个单独的流程步骤。这使得产品变体得到了全面测试并准时投入生产。该软件还确保所有员工遵循相同的标准化流程，消除不一致和冗余。自动化工作流程可以自我管理，使员工能够更加高效并确保一致的产品质量。

Wireless Improves Efficiency in Compressed Air Systems
Hollingsworth and Vose wanted to improve the efficiency of their compressed air system, lower the electricity expense component of manufacturing cost in their commodity industry, and conserve energy leading to lowered greenhouse gas emissions. Compressed air systems degrade over time and become leaky and inefficient. Hollingsworth and Vose wanted to increase the frequency of system inspections without paying the high cost of manual labor.

Process Predictive Analysis in Pulp and Paper Mill
Common paper breaks consequently lead up to 60 minutes of downtime, delaying a potential $10K per hour of production value process. Thus, defective products cause financial and damage company's reputation. Improving quality and reducing defect rates can generate millions of dollars of revenue per year for your company.

Industrial Video Monitoring for Security and Regulatory Compliance
Because of the Stevenson mill’s proximity to the Tennessee River, WestRock was required by the USCG to comply with the Maritime Security 33CFR (MARSEC) regulations. WestRock needed a video security system but wanted to add other applications not required by the government, such as video process monitoring, condition monitoring, and wireless network management. WestRock needed a reliable video solution to avoid the compliance fines and possible security risks – but the solution needed to be implemented in the most cost-effective manner possible.

ECOsine Active Increased Reliability in the Paper Industry
The paper and pulp industry is interlinking intelligent hi-tech machines to highly efficient production lines. Higher power DC and AC motor drives perform the automation tasks. Every kind of interference that negatively affects the reliability and safety of the installation may lead to production downtime and consequently to significant financial losses. AC and DC motor drives are so-called non-linear loads as they draw a nonsinusoidal current from the grid. Resulting harmonics of current and voltage can interfere with the operation of nearby consumers and overload the electrical infrastructure. In this particular application, the load cycles of the drives often caused interruptions in the production process because of disturbances coupling into the fieldbus system.
