Higher Efficiency and Quality
The client reported that the manufacturing process became significantly faster and more structured after implementing the new system. The ability to monitor each stage in real time not only streamlined operations but also led to noticeable improvements in product quality.
Challenge
Our client for this project was a company based in Sweden that specializes in fire retardant wood treatment and provides services to clients in the construction industry. Fire retardant wood treatment is a technically complex process. To accelerate the manufacturing workflow without compromising quality, the company decided to implement software that would monitor the technological process in real time.
The ultimate goal was to increase sales by reducing the time required for product quality control while maintaining a high standard of documentation. The project presented a significant challenge due to the specific nature of the software involved. Before our team was selected, our specialists were asked to complete a test task. After successfully passing it, the Cogniteq team moved forward to the development stage of the custom software solution for the client.
Solution
To address the client’s needs, our team developed a custom web-based system tailored for internal use. It provides employees with full visibility and control over all stages of the fire retardant wood treatment process. The platform ensures real-time tracking of orders and treatment progress while supporting high-quality documentation standards.
Given the complex manufacturing workflow and strict compliance standards, we began with an in-depth analysis of the client’s processes. Together, we created a detailed technical specification covering functional requirements, workflows, and access controls. Development followed the Scrum methodology with 2-week sprints, enabling flexibility and quick feedback integration. The system was delivered within a year and has been successfully operating in production for 12 months. We continue to provide technical support and implement new features as requested.
Project Table View
Orders are displayed as projects in a table format. By opening each project, users can access detailed information about completed stages, customer data, delivery terms, and other essential parameters.
Analytics and Reporting
The software automatically collects statistics and generates reports. Users can visualize key metrics such as shipments, revenue, and expenses through comparative graphs.
Access Rights Management
The treatment process includes seven stages, and each stage is accessible only to specific affiliates. As the treatment progresses, affiliated personnel move the project to the next stage. This role-based access control ensures data confidentiality and operational integrity.
Administrator Role
A system administrator has full access to all data and stages, allowing for comprehensive oversight and management of the entire process.
Modular Workflow
Some wood products do not require all seven stages of treatment. The system supports modularity, allowing certain stages to be skipped based on the product’s specifications.
Stage-Based Reporting with Attachments
Employees are required to generate and save reports at specific stages. They can attach photos for each batch of products to document quality compliance before shipment.
Integration with Salesforce
The system is synchronized with Salesforce. When a project is closed, all relevant data is automatically transferred, enabling sales managers to initiate the shipping process without delays.
iCoordinator Integration
The software is integrated with the iCoordinator system for secure file synchronization and sharing, supporting safe documentation exchange across teams.
Multilingual Support
The system is currently available in both Swedish and English, ensuring smooth operation for employees in different regions.
