Jörn Albers leads the warehouse at Bremen-Walle (Lagerleitung Bremen-Walle) for [Blauwal Logistik GmbH](../organizations/blauwal-logistik-gmbh.md).[^s1] His team was part of why Bremen-Walle was chosen to host [Projekt LEUCHTFEUER](../projects/projekt-leuchtfeuer.md)'s [SEAGULL](../projects/seagull-2024-25-quaystone-pilot.md) pilot — regarded as the most change-friendly crew in the estate.[^s2]

At the steering committee meeting on 19 March 2024 he pledged the site team's full support for the pilot, but asked that commissioning capacity be planned realistically during the changeover weeks and that peak loads be kept out of the pilot.[^s3] He also asked that the replacement [mobile data capture (MDE)](../abbreviations/mde-mobile-data-capture.md) devices for the pilot reach Bremen-Walle with enough lead time for the team to practice under live operation before cutover.[^s4]

At the Lenkungsausschuss's 10 February 2025 session he asked that the SEAGULL pilot weekend avoid the month-end peak; the chosen weekend of 22–23 February 2025 does.[^s5]

A week after the cutover, Gezeitenwerk account manager [Tomás Iglesias](tomas-iglesias.md) credited Albers's site team for the pilot's success, saying the implementation crew that worked the cutover weekend in Walle deserved recognition and that "Jörn's team met them more than halfway."[^s6]

At the pilot-operation status handover meeting of 30 June 2025 he and [Sabine Krüger](sabine-kruger.md) gave the site's retrospective on the cutover weekend, reporting the data takeover as complete and free of unresolved differences and the crew as well prepared; the two put the cutover weekend's operational interruption at nine hours, from Saturday 22:00 to Sunday 07:00 — see [SEAGULL](../projects/seagull-2024-25-quaystone-pilot.md) for how this compares with Gezeitenwerk's own account.[^s7] He also reported that his crew, after initial scepticism, would not give the replacement [MDE](../abbreviations/mde-mobile-data-capture.md) devices back, and that feedback from picking had led to mask improvements in two cases which Gezeitenwerk adopted into its standard [QUAYSTONE](../systems/quaystone.md) product.[^s8]
