Team
Eric Tenuta, Materials Engineer
Hamid Azizi, Engineering Manager
Timeline & Status
6 months, Completed September 2023
Overview
Burloak Insight integrates PDF scrapers, a centralized database, and data analysis dashboards to streamline data access and analysis, enabling informed decision-making based on diverse data sets. By automating tasks like report retrieval and data access, it enhances operational efficiency within the organization.
HIGHLIGHTS
An internal company dashboard created to centralize truth, analyze data, generate reports, and direct engineering decisions.

An opportunity to improve company operations.
A need for automation and consolidation was evident
Data access, storage, analsysis, and report generation were fragmented processes. I centralized these tasks, enhancing operational efficiency and informing engineering decisions.
Data entry was entirely manual.
A time-consuming and error-prone process, wasting engineering hours.
I automated data entry, increasing speed by over 200x, entering 500+ pdfs of secure data, and centralizing 30+ data stores.

Raw Data DashboardVIDEO
Data analysis was not happening.
Without analysis, engineering decisions were not data-driven.
I implemented a data analysis dashboard to analyze data, enabling informed engineering decisions.

Reports generation was done by hand.
This manual process was time-consuming and error-prone.
I automated report generation, continuing to generate reports in seconds, saving engineering hours and reducing errors.
Report Generation DashboardVIDEO
Machine verification was a reactive process.
Only after a machine failed was maintenance performed.
I implemented a machine verification dashboard to monitor and predict maintenance needs. This proactive approach reduced downtime.

A great experience with many lessons learned.
Tangible results and valuable insights, but always room for improvement
