Automation of test/release processes
Our collaboration with Audi AG
The demands on the production units of AUDI AG are continuously increasing with the expansion of the product range and the shortening of product cycles.
In order to be able to continue to meet these requirements effectively and efficiently, IT supported optimisations are being driven forward as part of the „Digital Factory/ViTech“ project.
Within the car body construction department, attention is paid to the further development in the department „Technology Development Joining“.
One component of this project is the development of a database on joining techniques to create a common database basis with standardised and consistent workflows with the task of enabling central storage with worldwide accessibility. With increasing data volume the process support develops into a knowledge database for all test results and their parameters, thereby enabling automated release processes for car body construction.
The Challenges
- Development of a knowledge database with audit-proof information that serves as a basis for deciding which joining technologies and technology-specific parameters are suitable for which car body parts, taking core premises into account.
- Central administration of rapidly growing amounts of data on test results, expert knowledge on joining technologies, documentation, approved materials, etc.
- Importing, processing and evaluating data of varying quality from different systems.
- Development of an accepted, labour-saving and standardised workflow. Step-by-step automation of approval processes as part of continuous further development using artificial intelligence (algorithms).
- Integration and connection of the application into the existing IT landscape of the group (Audi, VW).
Our contribution ...
With think tank, we have not only made the joining data bank a central and popular application within Audi AG, but have also increased our efficiency enormously.

Ministry of Economy and Finance of Madagascar
Development of central electronic guarantee register
Our cooperation with the Ministry of Economy and Finance
The Ministry of Economy and Finance of Madagascar is interested in enabling investors, especially SMEs, to apply for secured loans to drive economic development in the country.
The project, set up for the Ministry of Justice of Madagascar, is financially supported by the
IFC, part of the World Bank Group, to promote economic growth in Madagascar through
greater transparency in the credit system
Part of this initiative was the design, development and implementation of a central e-guarantee registry. This enables the Government of Madagascar to facilitate access to credit, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises
Challenge
- Cultural differences led to communication barriers and a lack of understanding of local
business practices, which hampered the success of the project. - Infrastructural realities in Madagascar also posed a challenge, making it difficult for team members to collaborate effectively and coordinate their efforts.
- In addition, there are a number of laws and regulations in Madagascar that must be adhered to when implementing a project, which was somewhat difficult, especially for foreign companies.
Despite these challenges, the IT project was completed on time, within budget and to the
satisfaction of all involved
Our Contribution ...
A big congratulations for this huge achievement, and a great way to close of 2022. Thanks for your collaboration, perseverance and solution oriented mindset. Looking forward to the next phase of the project in 2023.

Development of the National Company Register - RNE
Our cooperation with the CRNE
Goals
- Digitalising and securing all administrative processes and formalities: company registration, digitisation of official documents (secure QR codes, electronic signature), online payment of fees, validation process through to publication of all information relating to the economic fabric.
- Guarantee 24/7 access to online administrative services, with real-time monitoring of procedures.
- Automatically centralise the data entered by citizens/agents/registrars, making it easier to find information on companies/organisations on the register.
- Minimise processing time and related administrative costs.
Challenges
- Long queues at counters and frequent journeys to complete administrative procedures are major sources of frustration and dissatisfaction for citizens and entrepreneurs in Tunisia.
- The complex manual processes involved in setting up and running a business lead to inefficiency, slowness, errors and considerable costs (paperwork, etc.).
- The technical challenges associated with the Tunisian authorities’ IT infrastructure, which is often obsolete, need to be overcome.
Our contribution ...
Together with our IT partner think tank Business Solutions, we have succeeded in designing and setting up one of the most efficient and complex IT system in the eGov Environment since 2008, which is the Business Corporate Registry of Tunisia.
