CHALLENGE

Manual Handoffs
in Production Line Quality Assurance

A leading electric vehicle manufacturer struggled with fragmented quality assurance processes. Their production line QA workflow involved engineers, line workers, and external auditors, each using different systems and spreadsheets to track defects and approvals.

The problem? Critical delays occurred when:

  • Engineers identified defects but line workers didn’t receive updates in time.

  • External auditors required specific compliance documentation that was often missing or incomplete.

  • Manual handoffs led to vehicles sitting in limbo for days, costing millions in lost production time.


For a company where precision and compliance are non-negotiable, these inefficiencies meant delayed deliveries, fines, and reputational damage.

The conversation contains the process.
The current workflow loses it.

SOLUTION

Automation-Ready Process
Deployment with patchley

The automotive manufacturer used patchley to design and deploy their QA workflow directly into Camunda. Here’s how:

A

Live BPMN 2.0

As stakeholders discussed QA checkpoints, patchley captured decisions in real time and generated a BPMN 2.0 diagram ready for Camunda’s automation engine.

B

Automation-Ready

Produced import-ready XML for Camunda, including Service tasks, user tasks, and process gateways.

C

Handoffs

Connected engineers, line workers, and auditors in a single workflow, ensuring no vehicle was left in limbo due to miscommunication.

By the end of the project, the team had a fully automatable process in Camunda, with every step linked to real-time data from their production line systems.

RESULT

From Months to Hours With
Full Automation

patchley transformed manual, error-prone QA workflows into a Camunda-powered automation, cutting vehicle downtime by 70% and eliminating compliance fines.

Process efficiency: Improved by 65% with automated handoffs

Cross-team collaboration: Enhanced with real-time updates and shared workflows

Automation-readiness: BPMN 2.0 diagrams imported into Camunda in one click

"Before patchley, our QA process was a patchwork of spreadsheets and emails. Now, it’s a seamless, automated workflow that keeps our production line moving."
