Tiivistelmä
The goal of this research is to identify and evaluate key points and areas of a Cimcorp Oy project that affect on-site work (installation and commissioning) of large scale Factory automation projects. It has been noted that a key factor for successful project completion is identifying the areas that often affect each other and the final stages of the project, i.e. installation and commissioning.
In less than 10 years Cimcorp Oy has evolved from an automation company with 5-10 M€ projects to an international full factory automatization company with project sizes ranging 80 - 120M€. All project phases have not been able to follow this steep growth pattern.
In the past 5 years Cimcorp Oy has completed several medium and large scale factory automation projects that are the base for this work. Individuals working in the management positions prior and during the Installation and commissioning phase have been interviewed for this research study and questionnaires have been sent. Project documentation of these projects have been gathered together to locate critical areas that affect each other. From this data a project structure has been created with key areas of interest. This data has been put into a Design Structure Matrix, to see the cross reference of impacts on other key areas. From the data of the Matrix we will be able to see different factors impacting each other and site operations.
