weasl for Enterprise: Manage Globally, Scale Locally

Trusted by hidden champions and global players alike

The challenge

Your production system ends at the terminal. Your value creation does not.

Planning, orders, and quality specifications are managed in ERP, MES, and CAQ – for each plant. Yet at the workstation, last week’s printout often still takes precedence. Anyone managing multiple plants must ensure that every change to the standard is immediately communicated to the relevant workstation. Digital work instructions alone cannot achieve this. To do so, you need a platform.

Every plant operates differently

Same products, fundamentally different processes: Standards often stop at plant boundaries, and improvements have only a local impact.

Knowledge is leaving the company

The know-how, tricks of the trade, and testing knowledge are all stored in the minds of experienced professionals. When they leave, that knowledge goes with them.

Performance data remains unclear

A lot happens between the time an order is placed and a response is received, but the details are either recorded only on paper or not at all.

Enterprise-ready. From day one.

A platform for all your works

Multi-site capability

Manage plants, companies, and production structures on a single platform – from the front lines to plants around the world.

Enterprise Governance

Centrally manage roles, permissions, standards, and organizational structures, and handle approvals according to the dual-control principle.

IT/OT Integration

Integrate ERP, MES, CAQ, machines, and shop floor systems – via weasl Connect, REST API, OPC UA, or MQTT.

Enterprise Operations

Operations every factory can rely on: SaaS from Germany, unlimited availability, monitored interfaces.

Rollout to various plants? Easily done with weasl

Global standard. Local execution.

Define globally. Adapt locally. Execute reliably.

Your headquarters define standards, templates, roles, and reporting procedures once. Each plant adapts these to local differences – language, machines, workstations, products, and variants. At the workstation, weasl executes every order and work step exactly as approved and reports back on quality and results.

Seamless integration

Integrated rather than a standalone solution

weasl imports orders, material data, bills of materials, and work plans from your core systems and guides your workers through their tasks error-free based on their qualifications and the specific variant—including process locks and quality gates. Results, process data, and inspection data are automatically fed back into the system. ERP and MES remain the leading systems, but weasl covers the “last mile.”

Rollout from the first plant to the last

How to scale weasl to all your projects

You decide how to get started: as a standalone solution, up and running from day one, or integrated with ERP, MES, and other systems—typically within 2 to 4 weeks. After 90 days at the pilot plant, you’ll see proof of your ROI directly through your improved key performance indicators. After that, you’ll roll out the solution in phases.

Phase 01 · Align

Define goals and scaling

Your executive board, plant representatives, and IT team agree on a target vision and determine where the rollout will begin.

Set goals and KPIs for each plant
Select the pilot plant and the order of the phases
Involve the works council and IT security early on

Result

Rollout plan with pilot plant, phases, and control group

Completion criterion

The control group approves the plan.

01 Align Define objectives, pilot project, and scaling

Phase 01 · Align

Define goals and scaling

Your executive board, plant representatives, and IT team agree on a target vision and determine where the rollout will begin.

Set goals and KPIs for each plant
Select the pilot plant and the order of the phases
Involve the works council and IT security early on

Result

Rollout plan with pilot plant, phases, and control group

Completion criterion

The control group approves the plan.

02 Connect Run as a standalone application or integrate it

Phase 02 · Connect

Start immediately or connect systems

weasl is integrated with your existing systems right from the start.

Integrate user management
Import master data from ERP and MES
Check interfaces in the test system

Result

Data flows automatically between weasl and your systems

Completion criterion

The IT department is responsible for the interfaces.

03 Model Mapping plants, lines, and roles

Phase 03 · Model

Map your organizational structures

Plants, lines, roles, and rights are created once in a centralized manner in weasl.

Create plant and line structures
Define roles and permissions centrally
Set languages by location

Result

Organizational model for all plants

Completion criterion

IT and plant management approve the model.

04 Standardize Establish cross-functional standards

Phase 04 · Standardize

Establish global standards

You determine which processes are standardized across the board and where plants are allowed to make adjustments.

Describe core processes globally
Set local scopes for each work
Set up an approval workflow for changes

Result

Catalog of global standards with local flexibility

Completion criterion

The process owners approve it.

05 Pilot Launch a pilot project and demonstrate its benefits

Phase 05 · Pilot

Prove it at the pilot plant

A plant goes live. The results will determine the next steps in the rollout.

Launch pilot lines
Train workers and team leaders
Measure KPIs against the baseline

Result

Pilot report with measured KPIs

Completion criterion

KPI target achieved; approval for phase 1.

06 Scale Roll out to other plants

Phase 06 · Scale

Roll out in waves

Roll out each section one by one following the same procedure – as demonstrated by the pilot.

Pilot plant Phase 1 • plants 2–5 Additional rollout phases All plants

Every work goes through the same seven steps:

1Factory inspection

Day-to-day operations with clear responsibilities

Completion criterion

A regular review process involving all works has been established.

Frequently asked questions

What companies want to know before the rollout

Do we need an IT project to get started?

No. As a standalone solution, weasl is ready to go from day one: Users and master data are imported or created in weasl, and the pilot project begins without integration. At the same time, you plan the integration with your systems.

Can we use existing work instructions?

Yes. You can import existing instructions from Excel, CSV, or PDF files. Departments can create new content using the drag-and-drop editor without needing IT support.

What hardware do we need?

None in particular. weasl runs as a web application in a browser, on a tablet, PC, or industrial terminal.

Can weasl both read from SAP and write data back to it?

Yes. Orders are sent to the system via the REST API, and status updates and responses are sent back – for example, to SAP, HYDRA X, proALPHA, or Microsoft Dynamics 365. We'd be happy to demonstrate this on your test system.

Can weasl map out our corporate structure?

Yes. It maps companies, plants, lines, workstations, and stations exactly as they are. weasl Enterprise integrates operations across multiple plants, locations, and companies.

Can we set global standards while still allowing for local variations?

Yes. For example, you can centrally approve work instructions and roll them out to all plants with a single click. However, each plant also has the option to make local adjustments or work with its own instructions. You determine what applies globally and what can be adjusted locally.

In how many languages is weasl available?

weasl can support all the languages you need in your structures. German and English are defined by default; additional languages can be easily added through configuration.

How long is the pilot, and how soon will other plants follow?

As a stand-alone solution, weasl is ready to go from day one; when integrated with ERP, MES, and other systems, it’s typically up and running within 2 to 4 weeks. After 90 days at the pilot plant, you’ll receive proof of ROI based on your key metrics. After that, you’ll roll it out plant by plant in phases.

Can we determine which version a worker was using?

Yes. Every approved instruction is versioned, and the approval process – whether immediate or multi-step – follows the n-eyes principle. Documentation is generated as part of the process, and you can create audit logs with the click of a button.

What level of availability do you guarantee in the contract?

We work with you to establish customized Service Level Agreements (SLAs) that are tailored to your business.
