KSB uses Fabasoft to digitalise supplier documentation

KSB’s project-related mechanical engineering division develops custom-made pumps. Managing large-scale projects of this kind while ensuring that deadlines are met and that everyone involved has a uniform level of information is extremely time-intensive. To address this, KSB sought a digital supplier documentation solution for a pilot project at its Pegnitz plant in the context of implementing its “Digital Factory” project. Using Fabasoft Approve, KSB now has a central, cloud-based platform for coordinating, managing, and reviewing technical documentation.

Prior to the start of the project, KSB carried out a profitability analysis for the digital supplier documentation, which found that the costs for the pilot plant in Pegnitz would be amortised in under one year. Currently, the pilot operation is running with about 200 employees at the site. In the next phase, expansion to the Frankenthal and Halle facilities is planned with the aim of launching the application worldwide.

“Fabasoft Approve has enabled us to process complex special documentation for project-related mechanical engineering in a transparent, effective, and user-friendly way in a cloud platform. Elaborate review and approval procedures can now be handled in a way that is reliable and traceable, saving us roughly 4,500 working hours per year,” confirms Christian Strobl, Operative Purchasing Pumps & Systems at KSB.

“We are proud to have contributed to KSB’s massive efficiency increase, both with our product and with our agile approach to project implementation,” adds Andreas Dangl, Business Unit Executive at Fabasoft.
