Hi, I'm Mario Bergsch — building AI-driven smart operations systems for manufacturing and logistics.
31+ years in production, logistics, and process optimization Now: Architect at the intersection of lean management + modern automation (Claude AI, n8n, Kubernetes)
Looking for a specific project?
| Project | Status | Link |
|---|---|---|
| AI Shift Handover System | ✅ MVP Validated | → Repo |
| Smart Operations Automation Lab | 🔄 In Development | → Repo |
| Smart Operations Framework | ✅ 20 Playbooks | Private Vault |
Clone & run the validated MVP:
git clone https://github.com/mario-bergsch/ai-shift-handover-system.git
cd ai-shift-handover-system
pip install -r requirements.txt
export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY=your_key_here
python shift_handover.pyTransform unstructured shift notes into structured management reports automatically.
Status: MVP validation complete (12/12 test criteria passed) What it does:
- SBAR reports (5-minute read, management-ready)
- RCA analysis (6M + 5-Why root cause)
- Hallucination-resistant (marks missing data instead of guessing)
Tech: Claude 3 Sonnet API, Markdown, Python
📚 Repository: mario-bergsch/ai-shift-handover-system
Kubernetes-based platform for deploying, testing, and scaling smart operations workflows.
Status: Phase 1 complete (Proxmox), Phase 2 in progress (k3s, n8n) Deadline: 2026-06-30
What it will do:
- n8n workflow automation
- Prometheus/Grafana monitoring
- Slack integration
- SAP OData connectors
Tech: Kubernetes (k3s), n8n, Docker, Prometheus, Python
📚 Repository: mario-bergsch/smart-operations-automation-lab
20 documented Lean Management Playbooks covering:
- Shopfloor Management
- 5S & Visual Management
- OEE optimization
- KVP (continuous improvement)
- Safety & escalation procedures
- RCA & problem-solving
Status: ✅ Documented & active Use case: Standards for production teams, training material
