Production chain optimisation

We want to create capability to meet the holistic sustainability requirements of the markets, legislations, and finance sector – and go beyond – by optimising operations of the whole value chain online and offline and changing cultures and business models. This creates totally new value for the production chain players.

Adaptive asset management

We want to develop sustainable lifecycle asset management. A key is to build capability for a new kind of a collaboration between actors across the whole asset lifecycle: to be able to share data between actors, operate optimally with the data and utilise it in a new way – for the best of the assets and all actors. This requires new business and operational models. This requires new channels to build trust between partners, and consequently new tools, business and operational models to gain all the benefits to achieve all sustainability targets of the production organisation.

Future operations and work

Industrial work is changing, also with the progress of production models, which, in turn, influences on work roles and processes. At the same time, steps are taken in the path of digitalization. However, the new digital tools should exhibit good user-experience, in providing feeling of control and avoiding frustrations. The new tools should be suitable in view of the aims and challenges involved in the workers’ tasks. Some of the job assignments might totally change due to the new tools. These issues have a huge impact on the willingness to use digital tools, which is the reason why user experience aspects should be integrated into technology development. It is our mission to support the industry in developing new work assignments, tools and processes.
