Process Improvement & Digitalization: Q2factory

At Q2factory, we combine business process and technology know-how to design operational workflows that are efficient, lean, adaptable, and digital. Our focus is on the following core business processes:

Financial Accounting: Transparent, efficient representation of the financial position.
Cost Accounting: Clear value flows for precise management decisions.
Sales & Production Planning: Optimized planning for high delivery reliability.
Engineering: Forward-looking product development for high quality and efficiency in production and logistics.
Procurement/Purchasing: Efficient material disposition and transparent procurement processes.
Quality Management: Minimization of scrap and returns, increasing customer satisfaction.
Production/Manufacturing: Predictable processes through optimal resource utilization.
Maintenance: Avoidance of failures through preventive measures.
Warehouse Logistics: Smart automation as a driver for efficiency, transparency, and reliable material supply.
Sales: Quick response and on-time delivery as a competitive advantage.
Service: Seamless after-sales processes through up-to-date product data.

Our approach ensures efficient, future-proof processes – independent of the software used.

The methodology essentially consists of the following steps:

01

Analysis

We gain a comprehensive overview of the material, value, and information flows in your factory. This involves both shop floor walkthroughs and workshops with knowledge and decision-makers from relevant areas. In addition to traditional approaches, we also use Process Mining, depending on the conditions and the subject of analysis, to evaluate digital footprints. Celonis and Signavio are two widely used software solutions for Process Mining. Regardless of the tool used, the goal in the first step is to highlight process gaps and media disruptions in a holistic end-to-end view.

02

Action Areas

From the identified process gaps, media disruptions, and weaknesses, we derive specific action areas, evaluate them in terms of benefit, complexity, and effort, and develop a targeted implementation plan.

03

Implementation

Action areas with the greatest business benefit are specified and implemented in a targeted manner. The action areas can be organizational, procedural, or IT-related – or a combination of these.

Business processes and IT are the two central components of our DNA. Based on our years of project experience in digitalizing business processes, our affinity for modern software solutions such as Celonis or Signavio, and our ability to distinguish hypes from real business value, we are your ideal partner for optimizing and digitalizing your processes.

Efficient and digitalized business processes not only form the foundation for employee satisfaction, scalability, and innovation but also for profitability and, therefore, the sustainable competitiveness of our customers.

Don’t view challenges as weaknesses but as opportunities to unlock potential. Whether facing urgent action or preparing for an SAP implementation: take the opportunity to identify weaknesses in business processes, standardize, harmonize, and sustainably optimize workflows. We are always ready to support you as a sparring partner!
