Our Services

We aim to:

  • Optimize local or overarching patterns and scale automation to at company level
  • Improve KPIs (Efficiency) and KQIs (Effectiveness) in operation processes
  • Focus on the greatest cost/benefit ratio of innovation solutions with long-term sustainability
Building Up Your Production Automation Maturity

Our approach builds up your production automation maturity by working on:
1. Fitting your operations processes and new technologies, e.g. with retrofitting, sensor systems
2. Supporting operations, e.g. with dashboards and data science
3. Contextual automation, e.g. with fleet management
4. Predictive management, e.g. with edge machine learning
5. Autonomous decision-making, e.g. with self-learning and adapting systems

The Right Tech, Data & User Engagement

We make sure that you apply the right tech (e.g. AGVs, IIoT, Augmented Reality, ...), data (from OT - machine data to IT - plant level data platforms), user engagement (e.g. creating ownership and solution acceptance by appropriate usability) and business aspects (e.g. implications to management processes, technology roadmaps, business cases, ...).

Bringing Your Production to the Next Automation Level

Our services cover an initial Automation Assessment or Automation Thinking 1-day Workshop, where we define an appropriate solution that will bring your production to the next automation level. Plus, we define suitable automation concepts and develop technology solutions with you.

Combining Technologies and a Holistic Approach

Depending on your strategic needs, we combine three aspects to create an appropriate automation solution with you: business, user, technology.

  • The applied technology solution must fit to the user needs and eventually deliver an RoI.
  • We select relevant technologies and adapt that specifically to your needs.
  • Realizing automation usually starts from connecting base systems as used in your business processes.

After analyzing your current production process, we develop suitable technological solutions to increase automation. These solutions can range across different fields:

  • AMRs for intralogistics
  • Factory Data Platforms for further insights and automation
  • Digital Twins of Factories
  • Automated Quality Assurance based on Machine Learning
