Digital Strategy & Target Operating Model

For digital strategy and digital target operating model - considering digital opportunities and technologies - the focus is on the application of digital technologies with the aim of creating new differentiating business opportunities and business models. The newly developed digital strategy, which also describes the future digital target operating model, contains a structured action plan that leads to the concrete implementation of the digital transformation in the company. This transformation equally affects all areas of the company, touches and changes the leadership culture, the organization as well as the responsibilities. We support you in the creation of your digital strategy and your digital target operating model, starting with an inventory of where you currently stand and where you want to go. Thus, we provide the link between vision, strategy and the organizational structure. The basic principle for the development of the Digital Target Operating Model is the inclusion of the current operational management to be able to clearly represent necessary changes.

Do you have a clear and consistent digital control concept, supported by the latest technical solutions, with the help of which the company is controlled in real time? Is your control concept and the associated value flows consistently and appropriately reflected in your ERP system? Do you already use your data for further realtime analyses and do you have a clear BI strategy? These and other questions pose new challenges for CFOs, because the digitized enterprise requires new competencies, data processing capabilities and processes. Traditional finance needs to grow beyond traditional functions and provide new insights and forecasts that accelerate decision making across all business functions. We support you in digitizing as well as optimizing your finance and controlling and in developing your finance department into a "best-in-class" finance organization.

To meet today's demands for automated production such as optimized machine utilization, integrated production planning, data collection for tracking or evaluation of production metrics. We support you in defining your digitization concept in close cooperation, designing as well as optimizing the production processes and accompany you in the solution selection and implementation in your organization. We are happy to support you with:

• Assessment of your MES maturity

Processes and especially processes along the value chain can be further automated or intelligently designed with digital tools. The standardization and automation of processes is focused on increasing costs and efficiency. The digitalization of processes, for example through the application of artificial intelligence (AI) or machine learning, opens new opportunities, promotes market growth and leads to strategic advantages over the competition. Based on our many years of industry experience, we have a comprehensive process library of core business processes and have derived sustainable best practices from it. This enables us to efficiently determine your process maturity level, develop optimization proposals, and implement the new or optimized processes in a targeted and sustainable manner.
