Robot fleet dashboard: efficiency in live operation

In modern robotics, operators often face the problem of vendor lock-in. Anyone who chooses a manufacturer is usually tied to their proprietary software. A robot fleet dashboard from werob breaks down these silos. As a hardware-agnostic system integrator, we rank over 44 OEM partners to meet your specific requirements. The dashboard acts as a higher-level entity that consolidates data from robots from different brands such as Keenon, Pudu or Boston Dynamics.

Without a central control unit, employees would have to use their own app or web interface for each type of robot. This leads to inefficiencies and errors in operation. The werob Cockpit offers a uniform user interface that minimizes training effort and increases acceptance among staff. It's not just about seeing where a robot is standing. It's about ensuring that the entire fleet works as a harmonious system to achieve the promised operational goals.

An effective robot fleet dashboard must do more than just display battery status. werob uses a 4-dimensional traffic light system to assess the condition of the fleet in real time. The first dimension concerns the hardware. Mechanical parameters and wearing parts are monitored here. The second dimension is infrastructure. Does the WiFi work on all floors. Are the elevator controls active. Without a stable environment, the best robot cannot fulfill its task.

The third dimension includes regulation. This is particularly critical with regard to the EU Machinery Regulation 2023/1230, which will become binding from January 20, 2027. The dashboard continuously monitors whether safety certifications and operating permits are still valid. The fourth dimension is the specification. This checks whether the robot actually completes the tasks defined in the 48-hour workflow in the specified time and quality. Operations are only optimally secured when all four traffic lights are green.

An isolated dashboard is worthless if it doesn't communicate with existing systems. werob delivers pre-built connectors that integrate the robot fleet dashboard directly into your stack. In care, this means a connection to PointClickCare or MatrixCare. In the hotel industry, systems such as Opera PMS or Mews are linked. Integration into SAP EWM is crucial for logistics. These connectors ensure that tasks are generated automatically.

If a guest at the hotel orders an additional pillow via the PMS, the robot receives the order directly via the dashboard without the need for manual intervention from an employee. This seamless integration is the key to scaling. werob already has 200 robots in live operation in 11 European countries, which are controlled via precisely such interfaces. Automation becomes an integral part of existing business processes instead of representing an additional burden on the IT department.

The use of a robot fleet dashboard is not an end in itself, but rather serves to secure ROI. Significant savings can be achieved through central monitoring and optimization of walking routes. In care, an automated medication round relieves the site of €92,000 per year. This number is not a theoretical value, but is based on real data from our live operations. A transport robot that is efficiently controlled by the dashboard saves a further €71,000 annually.

In the hotel industry, the dashboard enables room service costs to be reduced by €112,000. These savings arise from reducing empty runs and optimizing operating times. Since werob follows an outcome-only model, you only pay when the robot is running and the integration into the dashboard is successfully completed. There are no hidden list prices or high upfront investments for software licenses. The focus is purely on the operational result and the measurable relief of your staff.

The regulatory landscape for robotics in Europe is changing drastically. The EU Machinery Regulation 2023/1230 imposes new requirements for conformity assessment, especially for imports from Asian OEMs. A robot fleet dashboard from werob serves as a compliance path. We ensure that all robots used meet the strict requirements that will become mandatory from January 2027. The cockpit seamlessly documents every deployment and every safety check.

For operators in sensitive areas such as care, compliance with ISO 13482 for personal assistance robots is also essential. The dashboard monitors compliance with these standards during ongoing operations. If a robot requires a software update that could affect the certification, this is immediately flagged in the system. werob as a system integrator takes responsibility for this compliance jungle so that you can concentrate on your core business. We are the partner who translates regulatory security into everyday operations.

Speed ​​is a crucial competitive advantage. While traditional consulting firms often need months for the discovery phase, werob delivers a ready-to-use specification within 48 hours. Our Spec Engine is trained on over 35,000 projects and translates your workflows directly into technical requirements. As soon as the specification is in place, the supplier match takes place, in which we select the best solution from over 280 maneuverable robots.

After selection, it only takes five days until the finished offer and eight weeks until the first robot is in use. The robot fleet dashboard is configured during the implementation phase so that it is fully operational on the first day of live operation. This accelerated process minimizes downtime and ensures a quick transition to automated work. We don't promise visions, we deliver functioning systems in record time.

werob operates operationally in countries such as Germany, France, Italy and the United Kingdom. Our robot fleet dashboard is designed for international use and supports various languages ​​and local regulatory requirements. Whether you operate a single location or a Europe-wide chain of nursing homes or hotels, the Cockpit scales with your needs. We plan to expand the fleet to 2,000 robots by 2028.

Centralized management allows best practices to be transferred from one location to others. If a cleaning concept is particularly efficient in a hotel in Paris, the parameters can be duplicated to locations in Berlin or Madrid via the dashboard. This global visibility combined with local operational depth makes werob the leading systems integrator in Europe. We offer the stability of a large network paired with the agility of a specialized platform.

Werob's commercial model fundamentally distinguishes us from classic resellers. We follow an outcomes-only approach. For you as an operator, this means: You pay nothing until the robot is running in your company and fulfilling the defined tasks. The Robot Fleet Dashboard is part of this promise. It serves as an objective authority to measure and document the success of automation. We bear the risk of integration and hardware selection.

This model creates full alignment between werob and the customer. Because we are hardware-agnostic, we have no interest in forcing a specific model on you. Our goal is to ensure that the traffic lights in the cockpit are green and that cost reductions are achieved. Customers like Korian Germany are already successfully using this approach to achieve double-digit cost savings in the first year. Get started now and let us translate your workflow into a ready-to-use specification in 48 hours.
