The Leonhard-Weiss construction company was founded in 1900 as a family business. Today, the group employs over 4,400 people.<\/p>\n

The business areas include road and network construction, rail infrastructure construction, civil engineering and turnkey construction.<\/p>

\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n

The road and network construction segment covers the construction of roads, paths and utility networks. Mainly in Southern Germany, 400 machines and 180 machinists are in operation.<\/p>\n

These have to be scheduled for use on the various construction sites in accordance with the specific requirements.<\/p>\n

Ten construction machinery planners are responsible for scheduling construction machinery and machine operators at the main sites in G\u00f6ppingen and Satteldorf and at the G\u00fcnzburg and Bad Mergentheim branches.<\/p>\n

Renting third-party equipment and ordering transport are also part of their tasks. Until 2009, this planning was done in various ways in Excel, on paper and planning boards.<\/p>\n

The big disadvantage of this was that each dispatcher only had his own planning in view, but no insight into the planning and availability of resources of his colleagues.<\/p>\n

Thus, consultations and telephone inquiries among the construction machine dispatchers were often necessary.<\/p>\n

For this reason, Leonhard Weiss decided to introduce a central tool for IT-supported deployment planning for construction machine scheduling in the Technology department in order to improve planning transparency and clarity.<\/p>\n

A decisive criterion for the selection of a solution was its ability to integrate with SAP PM, as this is where the resources for the operations are stored.<\/p>\n

The choice finally fell on MobileX-Dispatch from MobileX AG. The solution was introduced in the fall of 2009.<\/p>\n

Effectiveness increased<\/h3>\n

Since spring 2010, the construction machine dispatchers at Leonhard Weiss have been working with IT-supported deployment planning.<\/p>\n

Scheduling is usually done one to three weeks in advance, but also from one day to the next - depending on the client.<\/p>\n

The advantages of the central scheduling solution come into their own, especially when it comes to short-term planning. Since all construction machine dispatchers now work with the same tool, it is possible to see at a glance which machines are available and where they are located.<\/p>\n

For this purpose, the dispatchers can display the resources in a Gantt chart, in a list or on a map.<\/p>\n

The resources are divided into certain groups according to machine types. Among them are the individual vehicles such as excavators, caterpillars, rollers or tractors and their respective master machinists.<\/p>\n

If a requested machine is not available, the dispatcher must rent the machine from an outside service provider and also organize its transport to the construction site.<\/p>\n

Planning transparency across locations<\/h3>\n

After five years of scheduling with MobileX-Dispatch, those responsible for construction machine scheduling at Leonhard Weiss GmbH & Co. KG draw a positive conclusion:<\/p>\n

\"Planning transparency and clarity in the area of construction equipment scheduling in the Engineering department has improved through the cross-site use of MobileX-Dispatch.\"<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Technical field service<\/h3>\n

The technical field service, which is responsible for the maintenance and repair of the machines on site, will also be scheduled with MobileX-Dispatch in the future.<\/p>\n

To this end, the rollout of the solution is currently taking place for three workshop dispatchers who control 15 field service employees.<\/p>\n

The dispatchers create the orders in SAP PM and plan them in MobileX-Dispatch. The lead time for maintenance here is about one week.<\/p>\n

In the event of malfunctions, the field technicians usually have to be sent to a construction site at short notice. Here, the foremen are supported by a telematics system installed in the vehicles.<\/p>\n

GPS tracking allows them to recognize the current location of the technicians and thus send the colleague to the job site who is not only available, but also nearby.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
