Integration of BI Dashboard, MotionBoard Cloud and Electronic Reporting Tool, i-Reporter Cloud

WingArc1st Inc. and CIMTOPS CORPORATION announce that the BI dashboard MotionBoard Cloud and electronic reporting tool i-Reporter Cloud have been integrated to enable automatic data synchronization.

Through seamless integration with i-Reporter, paper forms can be replaced with electronic forms, which achieves digitization and paperless operation in the field. This enables automatic synchronization of business data stored in i-Reporter with data storage in MotionBoard Cloud. By visualizing i-Reporter data using MotionBoard Cloud, it is possible to understand trends based on the data and effectively utilize the data at construction and manufacturing sites to reduce man-hours and improve productivity.

The integration between i-Reporter and MotionBoard has been implemented mainly as an on-premises solution. It provides digitalization of various forms, such as daily reports and inspection sheets at manufacturing sites, as well as the ability to visualize and analyze data. The use of cloud services has increased in recent times, especially among small and medium-sized enterprises, reducing man-hours required for server operations. This integration is expected to contribute to in-house system construction and DX promotion.

Before:
Ifuku Seimitsu, which boasts advanced cutting technology, had been running its operations on paper and Excel, and was experiencing several issues such as a time lag in information, poor searchability and secondary use of data for reporting and analysis.

After:
Ifuku Seimitsu uses i-Reporter to operate processing policy manuals, conduct 5S patrols (*1) and digitize data as electronic business forms, which are aggregated and visualized in MotionBoard Cloud. It is now possible to understand the situation in real time and identify trends based on the data.

・The processing policy document, which used to take a week to create, can now be created and viewed in real time.
・Reporting the results of 5S patrols, which used to be once a month, is now reported immediately upon completion and used for trend analysis.
・Man-hours related to temperature control operations, which used to take 10 hours per month, were drastically reduced to 2 hours.
・Visualizing production sites has enabled data-driven decision making.
