WE SEE THE OVERALL PICTURE
WHICH FACTS, PROCESSES AND STRUCTURES DEFINE THE PROJECT?
Our advisers and project managers work according to a consistent procedural model that is adapted to suit the individual needs of a particular company, product, process, task or goal. And that model takes into account all the relevant aspects:
YOUR MARKET
We start our work by finding out about your market, your customers, your suppliers and partners and your most important competitors. What are the specific requirements placed on your products and services? What price is the market prepared to pay and what does it expect to get for that price?
YOUR COMPANY AND ITS STRUCTURES
Understanding your company exactly is the next step. What do you sell and what concept do you employ? Just how well and how easily do your sales teams embrace this concept and embody this in practice? What happens when you get an order, how is the CAD system adapted, how are parts lists compiled? How transparent and consistent are the subsequent procurement, production and assembly processes? And what structures do your service staff use?
YOUR PRODUCT
We take a long, hard look at your product – the appliance, the machine, the plant. What configurations are available? What subassemblies are used? How does the mechatronic structure function with mechanical, electrical, control and software components? What is the functional structure in CAD or for offers? What ERP setup are you using?
YOUR IT SYSTEMS AND THEIR OVERALL CONSISTENCY
Does your system guarantee consistency of data and processes across different areas of your company? Sales and offers, mechanical CAD, electrical CAD, controls and software, order processing, purchasing, logistics, production and services?
How does the coordination between CAD and ERP function in the case of new developments or within the scope of product maintenance or adapted designs? How do you integrate offer configurations and order processing in your ERP system?
