2021: Implementation of operational resource planning

On July 5, 2021, IBS announced the completion of the implementation of the operational resource planning system on the SAP MRS platform at Voronezh Sintezkauchuk JSC, which is part of the SIBUR group. The deployed system allows you to plan and allocate employee resources, increasing the efficiency of the production process.

The project team with IBS implemented the transition from resource planning in Microsoft Excel to planning in SAP MRS. The specialists provided the toolkit with the process of end-to-end maintenance planning (maintenance and repair) in SAP ERP, from the stage of annual plans to the execution of work by executing employees using mobile devices.

The implemented IT solution ensures the process of work planning with accuracy up to minutes, the daily work schedule of M&R for each employee is now formed in the system. The work of operational resource planners consists in the formation of temporary teams of maintenance and maintenance contractors, taking into account information on the availability and qualification of personnel, the distribution of the weekly and daily scope of work among the executors. Unlike working in Excel, SAP MRS allows you to see the availability of employees based on personnel management system data, as well as track the load of personnel on repair work in related industries. said Igor Zverev, head of the IBS SAP Solutions team.

The project on implementation of operational resource management at the enterprise of JSC "Voronezh sintezkauchuk" provided pilot implementation of IT-tool, which supports changes of business processes of M&R in SIBUR, aimed at increasing operational efficiency. Based on the results of the assessment of the livelihood of the tool, a decision was made on the success of the pilot project and the need to scale it to other enterprises of the company, noted Rodion Vorotnikov, senior project manager of SIBUR.

The practical implementation of the project took only six months. 3 months after the start of work, the solution was launched in the volume of MVP, and for another three months IBS specialists were engaged in adapting the system to the request of the customer. When starting the SAP MRS platform in pilot operation mode, IBS consultants were on the site of Voronezh Sintezkauchuk JSC and maintained the survival of the process of operational planning of M&R using "action training."
