HOW DO WE SUPPORT?

The 6 steps that detail how we generate value for your business:

1 - Raw data

Analytics ingredients: we use and process data from all relevant sources – ERP to sensor, static to stream, structured to text, sound and image – that most effectively and efficiently contributes to the solution of the business problem.

2 - Data preparation

End to end transparency: we enable end-to-end transparency on processes by integrating and transforming data sources from the cloud and on-premise servers, regional hubs, and decentral processes.

3 - Statistics

Robust solutions: we employ sophisticated statistical analyses and simulations which let us evaluate the quality of the data and how well trends and relationships in the data support new business insights.

4 - Advanced modelling

From data to information: we use appropriate machine learning methods ranging from unsupervised approaches for anomaly detection to deep learning for text analytics and image recognition to extract novel information that makes the data actionable.

5 - Visualization

User centric interfaces: we place the user at the center of all interfaces to our analytics – taking different requirements regarding display and interactivity for distinct audiences for the best possible user experience.

6 - Deployment

Product centric organizations and their R&D- and Engineering departments face unprecedented changes in their environments leading to paradigm shifts in their ways of working:

• Closer customer intimacy than ever before, the anticipation of dynamic markets as well as the flexible reaction to changes in the customers’ and regulatory needs have become more important than ever. 
• The tremendous shift towards developing software defined products offered with or accompanied by new business models requires the ability to collaborate in ecosystems with a variety of different players.  
• Furthermore, leveraging the power of digitalization in operational processes is a strong means to raise efficiency and competitiveness within the product delivery ecosystem – while managing the global shortage of skilled SW and HW engineers. 
•  In addition to the challenges in the face of digitalization, developing sustainable and environmentally friendly products has become a mission critical objective – at the same time, taking circularity into account for future products is expected by both regulators and customers. 
• Last but not least, these transformations must be achieved without compromising quality and product compliance.

Facing these challenges and tackling them as early as possible is inevitable to secure your economic success delivering value to your clients through product and related services. 

At Siemens Advanta, we have a strong heritage and successful track record transforming and improving engineering ecosystems and organizations to cope with a changing environment and market.

Companies are lacking a consistent approach to generate, prioritize, and order ideas for factory digitalization based on waste-free and lean processes. In most cases, solutions in the factory network are not scalable, and there is a lack of exchange between different functional areas in the company.

Our Lean Digital Factory Approach addresses all these aspects and is based on the experience we have gained in our own Siemens factories and with various external customers in recent years.

HOW DO WE SUPPORT?

For years, our consulting team has dealt intensively with the subject of lean digitalization throughout Siemens. We have had a specific focus in the manufacturing environment and supply chain management.

We don't just talk about lean digitalization; we use lean digital solutions consistently in our own internal and external factories, and we have three different approaches for this:

• Factory / Line optimization (Digital Factory Operations)
• Digital concept of a new factory (Digital Factory Lighthouse)
• Factory network digitalization (Digital Factory Organization)

Not only do we accompany you with individual consulting approaches, but we also bring our experience from different branches of industry and technology to bear. We would like to share this valuable knowledge with you and support you on your journey toward digital transformation.

Companies are struggling to find an effective approach to identify value propositions for different personas and prioritize relevant technologies to implement promising use cases.

CHANGE MANAGEMENT

Effective Change Management has always been important and a critical success factor for business transformations.

It is only through their successful implementation in and adoption of your organization that drive lasting results. We’re ready to work with you for robust yet flexible solutions that smoothen out your transformations and help you evolve.

CHANGE MANAGEMENT AS CATALYST IN YOUR PROJECTS

If your company has a straight timeline and already set target dates, we’ll implement well-planned and defined strategies that have been proven to yield the best possible results. Siemens Advanta has a great track record of successful change initiatives: from organizational set-up changes over business turnarounds to implementing new business models.

CHANGE MANAGEMENT FOR DEVELOPING ORGANIZATIONS

If your company’s change journey is adventurous and driven by a long-term vision, then all milestones and deliverables will not be set from the very beginning. The deeper the change, the greater the chance that things will develop differently than expected. Transforming the working mode for you and your employees is a change to the company culture and a huge challenge that takes years to achieve. During this time, the shifting global landscape will cause you to adapt your roll-out plan and respond swiftly to unexpected events along your journey. Our digital change approach — built entirely on agile principles — will allow you to move forward without limiting your options.

CYBERSECURITY

In the last decade, digital systems and services have become essential to the business world — IoT and Digital Transformation are now two of the main pillars of global competitiveness. However, as networked digital devices become ubiquitous and the amount of data collected grows, so does the number of vulnerabilities that can leave your company exposed to hackers. We can work with you to ensure your data is protected from bad actors and negligence, equipping you with the necessary tools and services to shield your valuable information and allow you to continue growing your business on solid foundations.
