IoT-based service at HOERBIGER – connected, automated, and measurably efficient

To successfully implement new business models in the field of wellhead compression, HOERBIGER fundamentally restructured its service processes. Together with proaxia, the company developed an end-to-end IoT and cloud solution based on SAP technology — from machine to invoice.

Operating data from more than 400 mobile compressors is automatically captured, analyzed, and, when necessary, converted into service assignments. Tickets, reports, and invoices are generated digitally, accurately, and largely automatically — including mobile technician connectivity, even without network access.

The result: higher availability, fewer service visits, improved data quality, and an innovative billing model precisely aligned with actual performance. HOERBIGER demonstrates how smart technologies create real business value.

Performance-based invoices are generated directly from machine and contract data.
Status and performance available anytime via desktop or mobile device.
Error codes automatically trigger service tickets in the system — without manual intervention.
Time and material entry directly on the tablet — available even offline.
Early fault detection enables targeted planning and reduces routine visits.
Standardized processes with a template-based approach enable easy international rollout.
