Industry 4.0 and Smart Maintenance represent a great opportunity to make manufacturing and maintenance more effective, safer, and reliable. However, they also represent massive change and corresponding challenges for industrial companies, as many different options and starting points have to be weighed and the individual right paths for achieving Smart Maintenance need to be identified. In our paper, we describe our approach to evaluating maintenance organizations in a case study for the oil and gas industry, developing a shared vision for the future, and deriving economical and effective measures. We will demonstrate our approach, by showcasing a specific example from the oil and gas industry, where a need for action on HSE-relevant critical flanges in the company's piping systems was identified. We describe the steps, that were taken to identify the need for action, the specifications of the project and the criticality analysis of the piping system. This resulted in the derivation of a digitalization measure for critical flanges, which was first commercially analyzed and then the flanges were equipped with a continuous monitoring solution. Finally, a conclusion is drawn on the performed procedure and the achieved improvements.
Smart Service Engineering
(2019)
In our digitalized economy, many traditional service engineering models lack flexibility, efficiency and adaptability. As today’s market differs significantly from the market of the late 20th century, service engineering models must meet different requirements today than they had to meet in the past. The present paper starts off by providing an overview of the requirements that modern service engineering models need to fulfill in order to succeed in today’s economic environment. Afterwards, three promising models that meet several of these requirements will be introduced.
"New Service-Work"
(2021)
Durch die Corona-Krise befinden wir uns auf einmal alle in einer völlig neuen Arbeitswelt. Innerhalb kürzester Zeit waren Unternehmen im Service gezwungen, Antworten für – vielleicht auch manchmal schon länger bestehende Fragen – rund um das Thema „New Work“ zu finden. Daher hat sich der KVD in den vergangenen Monaten im Rahmen einer ausgewiesenen Expertenrunde aus Praxis und Forschung mit dem Thema „New Service-Work“ auseinandergesetzt. Vor dem Hintergrund der aktuellen Herausforderungen haben wir die zentralen Handlungsfelder für die Umsetzung dieser neuen Arbeitswelt einmal intensiver beleuchtet. In über 25 digitalen Treffen wurden die Chancen, Risiken oder auch Hemmnisse zu den jeweiligen Handlungsfeldern intensiv diskutiert und aufbereitet. Mit einigen aktuellen, innovativen Lösungsansätzen aus unseren Mitgliedsunternehmen hoffen wir, auch Ihnen erste Hinweise oder Impulse geben zu können, wie auch bald in Ihrem Unternehmen „New Service-Work“ Einzug halten könnte.
The additive manufacturing technique of "Selective Laser Melting" (SLM) provides the basis for a fundamental paradigm shift in industrial spare part manufacturing, affecting both technological and organizational company prac-tices. To harness the full potential of SLM-technology, considering agility and customizability, decentralized additive production networks need to be estab-lished. According to the principles just in time, just in place and just enough, a global online platform, which efficiently distributes construction orders to local manufacturing hubs could empower the market participants to utilize production capacities at optimal costs and minimal efforts. This work evaluates and selects key factors and creates scenarios for the development of platform-based networks for additive, SLM-based, spare part production. For this purpose, the selected key factors (e. g. material expenses, quality and process management and platform-based business models) are projected into the future, forming the three major scenarios "New distribution of roles in the SLM value chain", "SLM-technology for high wage countries" and "Individualization instead of mass production". These scenarios not only allow estimating the potential of an online network for additive spare part production, but also enable market participants to react pur-posively and agilely to unexpected market developments, and to foster the suc-cess of a platform-based additive spare part production.

„Promovieren? Promovieren!" Mit diesem Slogan wirbt das FIR an der RWTH Aachen in seinen Stellenanzeigen für die industrienahe Promotion am Forschungsinstitut. Was junge Hochschulabsolvent:innen der Ingenieur- und Wirtschaftswissenschaften dazu motiviert, diesen Weg zu gehen, welche Erfahrungen sie am FIR machen und welche Perspektiven die Mitarbeit sowie die Promotion am FIR für ihre zukünftige Karriere eröffnet, beantworteten Dr. Jana Frank, ehemals Bereichsleiterin Dienstleistungsmanagement am FIR und heute 'Country Business Head' für Singapur und Malaysia bei der Henkel AG & Co. KGaA sowie Antoine Gaillard, seit Februar 2022 wissenschaftlicher Mitarbeiter des FIR an der RWTH Aachen im Bereich Produktionsmanagement.
Subscription business models provide an important component for monetizing the potential of Industrie 4.0. Subscription business is based on a long-term and participative business relationship between customer and provider. However, only digitalization offers the necessary framework conditions to realize the characteristic recurring and performance-based billing, and to ensure the necessary transparency about the usage phase of products as well as continuous performance improvements in the customer process. Against this background, companies must not only recognize the much-cited potential that lies in the total dedication to the success of individual subscription customers. Rather, the central obstacles must be addressed, examined, and subsequently overcome in a targeted manner in order to successfully establish subscription business models and place them on the market.
Smart Services als Enabler von Subscription-Geschäftsmodellen in der produzierenden Industrie
(2022)
[Der Sammelband] Widmet sich den in Wissenschaft und Praxis aktuell intensiv diskutierten Fragestellungen zu Smart Services. Befasst sich mit Geschäftsmodellen, Erlösmodellen und Kooperationsmodellen von Smart Services. Geht auf branchenspezifische Besonderheiten von Smart Services ein. (link.springer.com)
Ein Subscription-Geschäftsmodell – das klingt nach maßgeblichen wirtschaftlichen Vorteilen. Daher stellt sich die Frage: Warum haben bisher noch nicht alle produzierenden Unternehmen diese Art der partizipativen Geschäftsmodelle aufgebaut?
Die Antwort: Der Aufbau und die Umsetzung von Subscription-Geschäftsmodellen gehen einher mit zentralen Herausforderungen, die Unternehmen im Zuge einer Geschäftsmodelltransformation bewältigen müssen. Hierbei hilft dieses Expert-Paper.
