From UAT Findings to a Successful Visitor Management Rollout

IT Manager · May – Aug 2026

  • In use at 2 Myanmar factories
  • Interim register for about a month
  • Interim retired
Business problem
Factory testing showed the group's new visitor system did not yet fit how visitors are handled on site, so it could not go live as it was.
My role
Factory-side coordinator: ran UAT, turned user feedback into change requests, and kept visitor registration running with a temporary Microsoft 365 register.
Outcome
The improved system is in use at both Myanmar factories, and the temporary register has been retired.
System review and decision02

Turning Production Feedback into a Better IT Decision

IT Manager · Implementation / Feb – Oct 2026

  • Group system for 8 factories
  • 2 Myanmar factories affected
  • Rebuild in progress
Business problem
A group production tracking system did not fit our two Myanmar factories: teams entered data every day but got little back, and both factories asked to stop using it.
My role
The link between production teams, the group's overseas IT team and the developers: gathered feedback, explained the gaps and reported to the Director.
Outcome
A stop-or-rebuild discussion led to a rebuild that is now close to going back into use.
