How Wilkhahn Powers Production with Mobile SAP Data via Ontego

When you choose Wilkhahn furniture, you're not just buying a chair; you're bringing a unique vision for your office to life. Behind these designs is a cutting-edge, functional production process, powered by Ontego Mobility for SAP.

It all started with a simple goal: to effortlessly track work and break times for every team member in production and shipping. We then combined this with real-time feedback on production orders and a seamless way to log items for quality assurance. The result is a complete mobile software solution that constantly ensures our products meet the high standards you expect from us.

From there, we expanded step-by-step, introducing new features for our warehouse processes. Standard tasks, like assigning storage bins, were quick to go mobile. Thanks to Ontego's ready-made templates, we only needed a few small tweaks to get them up and running. A real game-changer has been the direct label printing for crates and cardboard packaging—a feature our team loves because it makes their job so much easier.

Using mobile devices on the factory floor isn't a new concept, but it always requires a shift in routine. At Wilkhahn, we took an inclusive approach. We started by rolling out features that genuinely made our colleagues' lives easier. The newfound transparency in time-tracking led to more accurate payroll and fair, achievable goals for everyone. From day one, Ontego's interface was designed to be fast and intuitive, so the focus could remain on the skilled work at hand, not on navigating software. The Ontego Mobility solution is the key—it’s straightforward and built for everyone to use with ease. Ultimately, it allows every employee to work with SAP, even if they don't realize it.

Key Highlights:

• Streamlined payroll through accurate time-tracking
• Gradual and seamless expansion of warehouse features
• Initial rollout completed in just a few weeks
