Increased productivity and flexibility through networked platforms and data management
- Learn more
Advancing digitalization is breaking down the traditional barriers between corporate divisions and entire industries. Companies that used to operate in clearly separated business units with specific products and services are increasingly experiencing networking and integration. Instead of isolated solutions and services, today we see platforms and networked ecosystems. This development brings numerous advantages: faster development cycles, more flexible and intelligent supply chains, and the efficient use of data to respond quickly to changes in the ecosystem.
However, building and implementing smart ecosystems presents significant challenges, particularly in terms of the necessary IT infrastructure and a corresponding mindset. In our Couch Talk on the Smart Eco-System, we show you how companies can benefit from the development, introduction and operation of intelligent, scalable ecosystems. It is not just about integrating individual components or services, but also about designing a comprehensive IT ecosystem – from material planning across the entire production value chain to end customer applications.
- The main topics of our Couch Talk Smart Ecosystem
- Approach and structure of intelligent ecosystems
- Customized applications and components
- Networking of MES and ERP systems, AI-supported applications and digital twins
- Strategies for the transition to the cloud
- Practical examples from industry
