DIGITAL-READY COMPANIES
Digital competences: a critical success factor for many companies
In the near future, to sustain the pace of technological development and to remain competitive in an unstable and rapidly changing market environment, going digital will increasingly be a necessity, not just an opportunity.
Many companies have already embarked on a digital transformation, known as Industry 4.0. In fact, more and more we are hearing about the Smart Factory, an interconnected network of machines, communication mechanisms and processing capabilities.
Technology, however, must be an enabler of the improvement process, not the end: it must be functional to goals and processes and not a “must have” by definition. One must also not run the risk of digitizing waste and make the correct investments, identifying the solutions that truly improve business processes and thus performance.
The Smart Factory according to the STAUFEN. approach, through the combination of Lean and Digital, avoids these issues and increases the value generated along the Value Stream.

-Digital roadmap definition in which I analyzed all company processes and defined a three-year plan composed by various digital streams with the indication of the cost for each of those.
