High Coordination Demands Combined with Dynamic Operational Workflows<\/h2>\n
In the metal fabrication industry, project-based manufacturing, individual customer requirements, and an intensive flow of materials all come together. This results in specific challenges in day-to-day operations:<\/p>\n
- \n
- Unplanned or poorly coordinated deliveries of raw materials and components<\/li>\n
- A high proportion of external service providers (e.g., assembly, maintenance, logistics) with varying access requirements<\/li>\n
- Tightly scheduled production processes with limited space for loading and unloading<\/li>\n
- Safety risks due to the simultaneous movement of people, forklifts, and trucks<\/li>\n
- Lack of a centralized overview of external personnel and vehicles on the premises<\/li>\n
- Theft is common in the metal industry, e.g., through forged delivery documents<\/li>\n
- High coordination effort due to the large number of contractors involved in maintenance and manufacturing<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n

With the VISIT visitor management software from ASTRUM IT GmbH, Zollern can keep a constant eye on visitor traffic on its premises and easily communicate safety guidelines at its two locations in Laucherthal and Herbertingen.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div>\nThe Challenge<\/span><\/h3>\n
The existing solution only covered pre-registration, but did not provide complete documentation of visitor and delivery processes.
\nVisitor access was recorded manually and archived on paper, while there was a lack of transparency regarding delivery traffic\u2014particularly from express, courier, and postal services.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\nTHE SOLUTION<\/h3>\n
Implementation of VISIT, including<\/p>\n
- \n
- Centralized tracking of all visitor, delivery, and shipping processes<\/li>\n
- Digital pre-registration in the corporate design<\/li>\n
- Supplier management, including truck call-ups and CEP documentation<\/li>\n
- Self-service registration at the kiosk, including multilingual safety instructions<\/li>\n
- Centralized, real-time data availability across all locations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n
The Result<\/span><\/h3>\n
- \n
- Significant reduction in the workload for reception, plant security, and specialized departments through automated processes<\/li>\n
- Complete transparency regarding all non-employee individuals and vehicles<\/li>\n
- Enhanced security, particularly in critical situations<\/li>\n
- A more professional image toward visitors and partners<\/li>\n
- High level of acceptance and extensive use in day-to-day operations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/i><\/div><\/div>\n
\u201cThanks to the implementation of VISIT, the manual registration of non-employees has been automated and fully digitized, significantly reducing the workload for reception staff. The visitor invitation and welcome email help project a professional image to the outside world.
\nVISIT adds value for Zollern and was implemented very competently by the assigned Technical Account Manager.\u201d<\/p>\nAlfred Danner | <\/b>Head of Plant Security<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
