50–80% less processing time for suitable recurring workflows.
The goal of secondFactory is not “more software”, but less unnecessary work. Where processes are recurring, rule-based and backed by sufficient data, the system takes over large parts of the preparation and downstream processing. Employees review, correct exceptions and approve.
Repetitions, handovers and media breaks cost capacity.
Office & sales
Reading inquiries, transferring data, searching for missing information, preparing costing data and compiling standard quotes.
Design engineering & CAM
Rebuilding similar models, defining machining strategies, selecting tools, generating programs, running simulations.
Production & logistics
Searching for information, asking about status, assigning documents, transferring feedback, manually maintaining delivery and quality records.
Routine shrinks. Expert work remains.
This is how the work shifts in a workflow with a high share of routine: the system largely takes over capturing, transferring, searching and standard preparation. Reviewing, deciding and handling exceptions stay with your team.

| Workflow | Expert work | Routine |
|---|---|---|
| Manual today | entirely with the team | fully manual |
| With secondFactory | unchanged with the team | 20–50% of the previous effort – i.e. 50–80% less (target range, depending on workflow) |
Schematic representation, no measured values. Measured on the real process, before and after.
From inquiry to delivery: automate routine, review exceptions.
The potential is measured on the real process.
50–80% is a target range for suitable recurring work steps, not a guaranteed result for every process. The decisive factors are data quality, variants, approval rules, system access and the share of genuine expert decisions. That is why secondFactory starts with a process assessment and measures the effort before and after.
