The Challenge

Self-Service BI Platform:

The main challenge was to assure continuous reporting during and after new ERP rollout in entire organization enriched with new modern approach – self-service approach, dashboards and in-memory model.

IoT Predictive Maintenance Platform:

Optimizing costs of production line maintenance and minimizing downtime. Reducing product return rate and warranty claims.

The Solution

Self-Service BI Platform:

  • The solution was deployed in 10 countries and built in an Agile approach simultaneously with the ERP deployment (Microsoft Dynamics AX)
  • The architecture and tools were based on Azure with an in-memory model. ITMAGINATION designed and implemented new central business data model including sales with product P&L, finance with controlling information, purchase, and manufacturing
  • This allows Tikkurila to track the product journey from factory to client. The modern approach to reporting is based on Power BI, which provides mobile reporting and dashboarding for self-service reporting

IoT Predictive Maintenance Platform:

The project covered the usage of sensor data previously used only by production line vendor: temperature, composition, environment parameters, vibration, electric current and voltages, etc. Full cloud solution architecture. Integrated with business data analytics systems: Global BI solution delivered also by ITMAGINATION. The solution included: predictive maintenance models and predictive quality models.  Used algorithms and data processing: Classification in neural networks, decision trees and AFT models.

The Results

Self-Service BI Platform:

As a result, Tikkurila was able to conduct full analysis of income, cost and effective margin on both customer and product levels with a more modern analytical solution allowing ad-hoc dashboard creation and a self-service approach to analytics and BI.

They gained centralized tools to analyze global and local business KPIs as well as fast, online and mobile access to reports and dashboards.

IoT Predictive Maintenance Platform:

  • The solution helped reduce downtime during production cycles and reduce product warranty claims and increase final product quality.
