2022: Digital Product Development "Digitalization Management System"

As part of the Business Solutions and Technologies project to develop digitalization programs, the concept and prototype of the digitalization management system for PJSC MMK, a solution was required that could combine the project office, production and the customer in a single system for structured management of the digitalization portfolio. The solution to the problem of creating a digital product "Digitalization Management System" was entrusted to the web integrator "Fact."

Tasks

• Implement a convenient and visual interactive map displaying the effectiveness of all digitalization programs in terms of physical objects and directions
• Create a roadmap for digitalization, from initiative to accounting for the effectiveness of the implemented product
• Develop a map to cover business processes with digital solutions
• Combine disparate data on all digitalization programs, investments and digitalization effects into a single and visual web interface
• Implement personal access to the necessary data and key business indicators for each business role
• Integrate the system into the information space of MMK PJSC

Decision

The interactive map allows managers and investors of the enterprise to see a general picture of projects, solutions and digital initiatives with reference to the geographical location of the object. Familiarize yourself with the object-specific summary information , as well as detailed information in the form of a schedule with the display of specific initiatives and projects.

At all levels of the map, aggregated visualized information on project indicators is presented, broken down by direction, loaded from integrated corporate systems.

The digitalization roadmap allows you to get complete information on the progress and plans for the implementation of programs by year/quarter in the context of business processes and functional areas.

On the map of digital solutions, it is possible to analyze projects, initiatives, products in the context of production units and sort them by economic efficiency.

All information about the digital solution is collected in one place, the section allows you to combine the project office, production and the customer, when creating unified business information and project indicators. The digital solution card details information about the digital solution, in terms of: responsible, implementation dates, economic indicators, investments, economic effect, as well as links with other projects. For the initiative on the digitalization project, a personal type of card was implemented to protect the project before the digital committee.
