Cases

Three technicians at a bottle filling line, one checking a drawing on a tablet

When the line stops, every minute counts

The filling line stopped in the middle of peak season. The technician on shift was capable, but new to this machine, and the manual was a thick binder in German, written for an older version. The supplier's service engineer was in Europe, days away. The few people who really knew the line had moved on. Every hour without production meant lost sales the brewery could not win back.

The brewery moved its documentation to Ospra. Now the technician enters the machine's tag number on a phone, tablet or laptop and gets the documentation for exactly that machine, explained at the right level and in the technician's own language, with drawings, troubleshooting steps and notes from experienced colleagues.

Faults are now solved on site, in hours instead of days. Less depends on the supplier's engineer, and the knowledge stays in the plant when people move on.

Two engineers checking a sample at a CO2 recovery plant, one with a tablet

Recovering the CO2, and the money

The brewery had invested in a CO2 recovery plant to capture the gas from its own fermentation. On paper, it could cover most of the brewery's CO2 needs. In practice, it often ran at low capacity or not at all. Operators were unsure of the start-up sequence, filters and dryers were changed too late, and quality was hard to guarantee. So the brewery kept buying CO2 by truck, at a high price and with its own supply risk.

Ospra turned the recovery plant's documentation into clear operating procedures, maintenance intervals and quality checks, linked to every component and tag number. Operators now follow the same steps on every shift.

The recovery plant runs as intended. The brewery buys far less CO2, has better control of beverage-grade quality, and the investment is finally paying back.

Two technicians in a spare parts store comparing a part with its drawing on a tablet

The right part, the first time

The spare part had spent weeks in transit and customs. When it finally arrived, it didn't fit. The part list was outdated, the supplier had changed the item number, and nobody could see which version was actually installed. Meanwhile, the line ran at reduced speed, and the warehouse was full of parts nobody could use.

Ospra linked every spare part to its drawing, item number and the exact machine and tag number. Changes made over the years are recorded, and correct part numbers go straight into the maintenance and purchasing system.

Today the technicians identify the right part from the drawing in minutes and order it right the first time. There are fewer wrong orders, shorter waits and less money tied up in the wrong stock. Critical spares are on the shelf before they are needed.

Three people at a bottling line, one holding a tablet

From micro-stops to full output

The bottling line was rated for far more than it produced. It rarely stopped for long, but it stopped often: a jam at the labeller, a sensor out of position, a conveyor running slightly too fast. Each stop lasted only minutes, but over a shift they added up to hours of lost output. Maintenance happened when something broke, because nobody had a clear plan.

With Ospra, the manufacturers' maintenance requirements became a clear plan for every machine on the line, exported to the maintenance system. Correct settings, changeover instructions and adjustment procedures are available at the machine through the tag number.

Operators now set up the line the same way on every shift, and maintenance happens before things break. Micro-stops have dropped, and the line delivers far more of the output it was built for.

About Ospra

Ospra is built on professionalism and hands-on industry experience. Our roots are in project management, installation and commissioning of beverage, industrial gas and refrigeration plants, including breweries and bottling plants in Africa. We know the plants, the machines and the everyday challenges from the inside.

Our vision is to make technical knowledge accessible and usable for everyone in the plant, whatever their level of experience. When more people can operate a plant safely and efficiently, the plant produces more, stops less and earns more.

Our approach is simple. We make complex technical knowledge clear and easy to understand. Every explanation comes in three levels of detail, from a quick overview to full technical depth, and in the language your team prefers. A new operator and an experienced engineer can use the same platform, each at their own level. That improves safety, motivation and work processes at every level of the organisation, from the boardroom to the people solving the day-to-day challenges on the floor.

We believe that social sustainability is the link between good governance and environmental responsibility. Building local skills and keeping knowledge in the plant is how we turn ESG from a vision into everyday practice.

We believe in long-term partnerships where innovation and responsibility go hand in hand. Our mission is to deliver real improvements that strengthen businesses and make a positive difference for the people who drive them forward.
