qontrol maps

Short Desription

In this project, qoncept supported a German foundry in achieving two strategic goals: cost savings through raw material optimization and the digital replacement of manual stock yard management.

The solution is based on the qontrol framework and combines two dedicated applications. The qontrol maps charge optimization application calculates the cost-optimized scrap mix for each heat, ensuring smarter raw material use, improved energy efficiency, and substantial cost savings. In parallel, the stock yard management application replaces manual workflows with a structured digital system for managing storage locations and material movements, creating transparency and reliability across the supply chain.

Seamlessly integrated into the customer’s IT landscape, the system provides operators with clear digital charge instructions and management with detailed reporting tools. This project highlights how digitalization not only unlocks measurable cost advantages but also strengthens process reliability, transparency, and resource efficiency.
