In this project, qoncept delivered the foundation for a next-generation MES tailored to the packaging industry. The work focused on setting up a proof of concept to demonstrate the capabilities of the qontrol framework in supporting essential shopfloor use cases. Alongside this technical validation, a modern UI/UX concept was designed to provide intuitive, web-based interaction and ensure alignment with future application standards. In parallel, a comprehensive set of packaging-specific use cases was defined, providing a clear basis for future solution development. By combining proof of concept, user-centered design, and structured requirements engineering, the project established a solid groundwork for the subsequent realization of a fully featured MES solution.

In this project, qoncept delivered a software solution for structured scrap yard management based on its qontrol framework. The system covers the definition and administration of materials, storage locations, and stock movements with full digital traceability. A key element is the Scrap Yard Cockpit, providing operators with real-time guidance for material transfers and bucket loading through a clear and touch-optimized interface. All movements are recorded automatically, ensuring accurate inventories and seamless communication to downstream steelmaking operations. By integrating user management, material tracking, and operational workflows into a single solution, the project established a reliable foundation for transparent scrap yard processes and improved connectivity with production units.

In this project, qoncept implemented a software system to seamlessly integrate the final processing of flat steel into the customer’s IT landscape. The system, based on the qontrol framework, covers the complete workflow from order preparation to pallet handling and ensures reliable monitoring and control of all production steps.

At Level 2, the solution provides real-time process monitoring and control. It records and processes cyclical data and events, transmits setpoints to Level 1.5 systems, and observes production steps through an integrated camera system. Downtime and error tracking are managed in real time, while live production status updates provide operators with full transparency across all units.

At the MES level, the software enables structured production management and data integration. Functions include master data management of products, materials, storage locations, equipment, and manufacturing specifications. Orders received from the ERP system are prepared, sequenced, and released for production through fine planning. Product and material tracking, combined with reporting interfaces for external systems, ensures end-to-end traceability and operational efficiency.

With its modular design and deep IT integration, the solution establishes a digital backbone for the final processing of flat steel, supporting optimized workflows, consistent data flows, and improved production reliability.
