In a digitalised production environment, numerous opportunities arise for enhancing efficiency, including aspects such as Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE), preventive and predictive maintenance, traceability, sustainability, data security, and analysis. When various functions within a company have access to pertinent information, all employees can contribute in diverse ways to generate enhanced business value. This extends to various facets, ranging from procurement and material flows to maintenance, product design, and logistics. A more comprehensive understanding of different aspects of the business enables the identification of areas ripe for efficiency improvement. These improvements may encompass elevating utilisation rates, minimising waste, reducing energy consumption, and heightening process comprehension.
At its essence, digitalisation revolves around the conversion of data into profitable business outcomes.
