Challenges in Industrial Lighting Configuration for Large-Scale Facilities

The client faces inefficiencies with their existing lighting configuration software, which contains numerous unused features, leading to prolonged setup times, operational complexity, and increased costs—particularly problematic for large projects involving thousands of luminaires. The complex interface hampers technician productivity and scalability of operations.

About the Client

A mid-to-large manufacturing company specializing in industrial equipment and infrastructure, requiring streamlined lighting system design and implementation for large industrial and warehouse facilities.

Goals for Developing a Streamlined Lighting Configuration Solution

  • Develop a simplified, intuitive desktop application tailored to the client's core lighting configuration needs.
  • Reduce configuration time for large-scale installations by optimizing workflow and minimizing user interactions.
  • Enable project saving, opening, cloning, and easy customization to facilitate rapid deployment across multiple facilities.
  • Incorporate functionality to save lighting configurations to files for efficient reuse and replication in similar projects.
  • Implement integration features to support seamless data exchange with proprietary lighting control systems.
  • Create a modular platform allowing future feature extensions based on evolving client needs.

Core Functional Specifications for the Lighting Configuration Software

  • Step-by-step workflow guiding the user through installation and configuration processes
  • Project management functionalities including saving, opening, cloning, and customizing configurations
  • Ability to save and load configuration files for rapid deployment across multiple zones or facilities
  • User interface tailored for minimal clicks and maximum ease of use to enhance productivity
  • Integration with proprietary DALI-based lighting control systems and external documentation transmission software
  • Support for future expansion with additional features based on client feedback

Preferred Technologies and Architectural Approaches

Desktop application development using WPF (Windows Presentation Foundation)
Integration with existing proprietary control systems via external software modules

Necessary External System Integrations

  • Proprietary lighting control system for seamless configuration deployment
  • External documentation transmission tools to ensure accurate data exchange

Non-Functional System Requirements

  • Application must run on Windows operating systems with high performance and stability
  • User interface should be intuitive, reducing configuration steps by at least 30%
  • Data security and integrity must be maintained during project file handling
  • System should support project scaling for large facilities involving thousands of luminaires

Projected Business Benefits of the Lighting Configuration System

By developing a tailored, efficient lighting configuration application, the client aims to significantly reduce project setup times—by an estimated 40%—leading to lower labor costs and faster project completion. Additionally, the ability to reuse configurations will streamline future projects, enhance scalability, and improve overall operational efficiency across multiple facilities.
