    From tomorrow on I'll be system architect (together with a colleague), trying to bring order into the chaos of non existant processes and a lot of different solutions for similar problems in our division, and on the same time trying to reduce complexity, make everything a bit more robust and less "manual" while bringing us into the future. Whish me luck

    M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

      Don't try and do everything all at once. One bite at a time. Pick some low-hanging fruit to start to - get some quick successes and impress the higher ups - test and fine tune YOUR processes Involve the people that will be using your solutions. If you can steer them to the 'correct' solution and make them think it was their idea, you will get buy-in a lot faster.

              I hope you like drawing pictures; I don't know how you pull it off otherwise. (Mine were used to outsource me in the end ... no problem, got paid a bonus to stick around for the extra 6 months to educate the replacements).

                        Don't try and do everything all at once. One bite at a time. Pick some low-hanging fruit to start to - get some quick successes and impress the higher ups - test and fine tune YOUR processes Involve the people that will be using your solutions. If you can steer them to the 'correct' solution and make them think it was their idea, you will get buy-in a lot faster.

                        Yeah, Luckily I already learned this (the hard way). I hope to not repeat the same error. #1 - Get knowledge about the current status quo, there is a lot of variance and I don't know every permutation #2 - Trying to get a good feedback from management about which direction do they want to take #3 - Organize things in "can die a natural death", "it needs a double tap", "we need this and we have to take it with us" #4 - Once the system has been cleaned up from zombies and not needed stuff, start working out how to improve it #5 - We'll see when we come there...

                        That's something I have always tried when programming PLCs for others, nobody know the machine better that the one using it everyday.

                        That's something I know, but that I don't master (yet) Thanks for the tips, Matthew :)

                                      I don't, but I suppose I will have to do a good bunch of schemata.

                                      Visio and hyperlinks are your friend. (If they would have kept me on, I would have had to go to Toronto ... lose-lose).

                                        From tomorrow on I'll be system architect (together with a colleague), trying to bring order into the chaos of non existant processes and a lot of different solutions for similar problems in our division, and on the same time trying to reduce complexity, make everything a bit more robust and less "manual" while bringing us into the future. Whish me luck
