Design and implement the transformation of industrial operations

The operational and digital aspects of industrial projects have become inseparable: There is no longer any project for new lines, changes in the master plan, or a performance project that does not simultaneously address the performance levers through digitalization.

Industrial departments must now know how to integrate all these dimensions into their roadmaps:

  • Align technological ambitions with business challenges and performance objectives
  • Plan digital resources at the same time as capacity investment plans
  • Redesigning processes and businesses to take advantage of technological breakthroughs
  • Implementing performance plans based on the deployment of IT tools for execution: Planning, production, maintenance, quality, internal logistics and storage, etc.

In this context, the industrial director must also coordinate action to respond to new issues:

  • How can we get the most value out of industrial data, both technically (process, maintenance, quality, etc.) and managerially (to drive decision-making)?
  • How to generalize and industrialize Industry 4.0 use cases at the right pace, between integration of disruptive technologies and management of obsolescence?
  • What skills should be acquired, and in which organizations should they be adjusted to operate production systems that contain as much software as machines?
  • How can we take into account the challenges of sustainable development, energy management and social responsibility?
