Providing a strategic Vision

Harald Kokelkoren, entrepreneur:

Rather than being a consultant that conducts months of research to produce a report that simply disappears into a filing cabinet, Harald Kokelkoren offers customised models that businesses can quickly put into practice. The founders of VisionWaves used their years of experience in the air force to compile an effective “Enterprise Management System” through the VisionWaves Delta Application for implementing new business strategies. According to founder Harald Kokelkoren, ‘VisionWaves Delta very quickly makes it clear who needs to do what to achieve the desired goals.’

VisionWaves Delta is implemented at a number of different clients, one of which has been the Chilean Air Force since the Netherlands sold 18 Dutch F-16 fighter planes to Chile. The core aim is to ‘accumulate as many flying hours as possible, for as little money as possible.’ Lockheed Martin, which delivered ten new aircraft to Chile, also opted for VisionWaves’ approach. VisionWaves Delta orchestrated the implementation of the logistical management information
system (ERP) for the Chilean Air Force for the entire F-16 series. ‘The implementation therefore covers everything from operations, maintenance and supplies to contracts with industry’, says Kokelkoren. ‘Everything is geared to successful missions, which ensures cost effectiveness.’

Colonel Leopoldo Porras of the Chilean Air Force: ’Our old logistical software system was outdated and we had been looking for an efficient new solution for several years. There were many different possibilities, but nearly all of them required a significant amount of customisation according to our needs, which is expensive and time-consuming. However, the total VisionWaves solution was already a proven system and was much easier to implement. We expect a lot from the system and the contribution that it will make to the management of our fleet.’ www.visionwaves.com
