While digitization is a strategic advantage in numerous industries such as the automotive industry or mechanical engineering, other industries like the German quarrying industry have not yet established a transformation towards a digitized industry. This leads to inefficient work and inaccurate forecasting capabilities. To address these challenges, digital platforms can incentivize digitization
by supporting the capacity utilization and forecasting capability of these companies. In this paper, the quarrying industry is analyzed by a morphology and different types of companies are identified. Knowing the digital maturity of these companies and by determining the key factors to forecast demands and the capacity utilization, different operating models are derived. Combined with a morphology and the value creation system, different scenarios for the identification of platform services are examined. These scenarios are weighted in a utility analysis to get an operating model blueprint to develop and establish digital platforms in less digitized industries.
Das Gegenteil von Theorie ist die Praxis. So sagt man landläufig und unterstellt damit oft, dass wissenschaftliche Erkenntnisse nicht immer für den Alltag taugen. Dass Theorie aber nicht gleich Theorie ist und Wissenschaft und Praxis trotz aller Unterschiedlichkeit aufeinander angewiesen sind, darauf weist das FIR an der RWTH Aachen schon mit der Auflösung seines Akronyms hin: „Forschung. Innovation. Realisierung.“ Hier zielen alle Forschungsaktivitäten darauf ab, Lösungen für reale Herausforderungen aus der Praxis zu schaffen, die am Ende auch umsetzbar sind. Eine nutzenbringende Verbindung zwischen den beiden scheinbar so unterschiedlichen Welten ist dafür unabdingbar und diese Lücke schließt das FIR mit Industriekooperationen, Wissens und Technologietransfer sowie Weiterbildungsangeboten auf vielen Ebenen. Nicht zuletzt positionierte sich das FIR als leitendes Institut des Clusters Smart Logistik auf dem RWTH Aachen Campus und füllt diese Rolle seit über 10 Jahren erfolgreich aus.
Digitalization is changing the industrial landscape in a way we did not anticipate. The manufacturing industries worldwide are working to develop strategies and concepts for what is labelled with different terms such as the Industrial Internet of Things in the USA or Industrie 4.0 in Germany. Many industrialized economies are driven by the production sector and this sector needs specific approaches and instruments to take up other than those approaches we know from start-ups and ventures coming from Silicon Valley and other places. In this paper, we demonstrate an appropriate approach to transform producing companies in a systematic and evolutionary approach.
In particular, the objective of this paper is to provide results from two initiatives which conceptually build upon each other and are of particular relevance for the production industry. First, we present a global survey on the state of implementation and the future perspectives of the concept Industrie 4.0 from 2016. Findings from this study have forced parts of the German industry to heavily invest into a common approach to accelerate change towards Industry 4.0 in order to stay competitive in worldwide economy. This approach is presented in a second part.
Understanding the Organizational Impact of Robotic Process Automation: A Socio-Technical Perspective
(2022)
Interest in AI-driven automation software is growing constantly across
all industries, as these technologies enable companies to almost automate administrative processes completely and significantly increase operational efficiency.
However, many implementation attempts fail due to a lack of understanding of how these technologies affect the various socio-technical aspects that are intertwined in an organisation. This leads to a widening gap between value propositions of automation software and the ability of companies to exploit them. For long-term
success, collaboration between humans and software robots in the organization must be optimised. Therefore, the social, technical, and organizational impact of Robotic Process Automation was investigated. Following a socio-technical systems approach, a model was developed and validated in a use case of a company in the mechanical engineering sector. Knowing the influencing factors before launching large-scale automation initiatives will help practitioners to better exploit
efficiency potentials and increase the long-term success.
In der neuen Expertise des Forschungsbeirats Industrie 4.0 untersuchen das FIR e. V. an der RWTH Aachen und das Industrie 4.0 Maturity Center den Status-quo und die aktuellen Herausforderungen der deutschen Industrie bei der Nutzung und wirtschaftlichen Verwertung von industriellen Daten. Handlungsoptionen für Unternehmen, Verbände, Politik und Wissenschaft zeigen auf, wie der Nutzungsgrad der Datenbasis erhöht werden kann und wie sich Potenziale bei der Monetarisierung ausschöpfen lassen. Der Fokus liegt dabei auf produzierenden Unternehmen.
Generation of a Data Model For Quotation Costing Of Make To Order Manufacturers From Case Studies
(2022)
For contract or make to order manufacturers, quotation costing is a complex process that is mainly performed based on experience. Due to the high diversity of the product range of these mostly small or medium-sized companies (SMEs) and the poor data situation at the time of quotation preparation, the quality of the calculation is subject to strong variations and uncertainties. The gap between the initial quotation costing and the actual costs to be spent (pre- and post-calculation) is crucial to the existence of SMEs. Digitalization in general can help companies to get a better understanding of processes and to generate data. For improving these processes, an understanding of the important data for that specific process is crucial. Accurate quotation costing for customized products is time-consuming and resource-intensive, as there is a lack of an overview of data to be used within the process. This paper therefore derives a data model for supporting quotation costing in the company, based on literature-based costing procedures and recorded case studies for quotation and calculation. Based on the results, SMEs will have a first overview of the needed data for quotation costing to optimize their calculation process.
Development of a platform business model for co-creation ecosystems for sustainable furniture
(2023)
Existing design platforms with multi-dimensional value chains currently have deficits in terms of their business models, resulting in insufficient attention to sustainability goals and individual requirements for products of these platforms. Co-creation approaches, such as the Do-It-Together (DIT) approach for furniture, involve customers and manufacturers as equal partners in the design and production process. This allows customers to have more influence on the sustainability and individualization of products. The existing literature addresses sustainability-oriented design principles for platform business models, but concrete platform business models for multidimensional DIT cocreation of furniture are still missing. Therefore, the objective of this paper is to develop a business model for a DIT co-creation platform for the furniture industry based on a four-step business model innovation framework. This method will then be applied to a specific project scenario to derive a project-specific DIT co-creation business model. This generates knowledge about the collaborative manufacture of sustainable and customized furniture and contributes to the cross-sectoral transfer of platform business models for the development of sustainable products.
Um auf steigende Kundenanforderungen und das sich änderndes Unternehmensumfeld reagieren zu können, müssen Unternehmen ihre Agilität und Reaktionsfähigkeit, insbesondere in Produktionsprozessen, erhöhen. Dafür müssen die Auswirkungen der möglichen Änderungen im Unternehmensumfeld auf die eigenen Geschäfts- und Produktionsprozesse untersucht und verstanden werden. Das Prozessverständnis allein reicht jedoch nicht: Es werden Daten aus unterschiedlichen Quellen benötigt, um die Ereignisse in der Prozess- und Lieferketten nachzuverfolgen, um das Material eindeutig zu charakterisieren und in Unternehmen vorhandene Algorithmen oder Modelle mit Eingangsdaten zu versorgen. Daher spielt die Datenverfügbarkeit eine wichtige Rolle auf dem Weg zur adaptiven Produktion. In diesem Beitrag wird die Wichtigkeit der Datenverfügbarkeit erläutert sowie ein Konzept der Datenplattform zum sicheren, überbetrieblichen Datenaustausch vorgestellt.
Schwerwiegende Gesundheits- und Wirtschaftskrisen wie die Weltfinanzkrise (ab 2007) oder die Covid-19-Pandemie im Jahr 2020 haben aufgezeigt, in welch turbulentem Umfeld sich die globalisierte Welt heutzutage befindet und wie schnell gewohnte Abläufe in Wertschöpfungsketten unterbrochen und angepasst werden müssen. Die alltäglichen Anforderungen in dem sich immer schneller wandelnden digitalen Zeitalter wachsen stetig und sind komplexer denn je.
Unternehmen sind angehalten, immer kurzzyklischer auf sich ändernde
Bedingungen und Störungen zu reagieren und strategische Entscheidüngen
zur Gestaltung von Wertschöpfungsketten zu treffen. Nur mithilfe
einer umfassenden Datengrundlage und -kommunikation kann die strategische Planung der Supply-Chain effektiv erfolgen und somit die benötigte Robustheit und Agilität ermöglicht werden.
Künstliche Intelligenz (KI) hat als Technologie in den vergangenen Jahren Marktreife erlangt. Es existiert eine Vielzahl benutzerfreundlicher Produkte und Services, welche die Anwendung von KI im Alltag und im Unternehmen vereinfachen. Die Herausforderung, vor denen Anwendende, gerade im betriebswirtschaftlichen Kontext, stehen, ist nicht die technische Machbarkeit einer KI-Applikation, sondern deren organisatorisch und rechtlich zulässige Gestaltung. Zu einer zunehmenden Dynamik in der Gesetzgebung kommt ein gesellschaftliches Interesse an der Kontrolle und Transparenz über die für KI-Modelle erhobenen Daten. Die Diskussion über Datensouveränität im geschäftlichen und privaten Alltag rückt mehr und mehr in das Zentrum der öffentlichen Aufmerksamkeit.
Datenbasierte KI-Anwendungen stehen damit in einem Spannungsfeld zwischen den Potenzialen, die das Erheben und Teilen von Daten über Unternehmensgrenzen hinweg bietet, und der Herausforderung, die Datensouveränität der involvierten Personen zu wahren. Die vorliegende Studie soll erstens über die Auswirkungen der Datensouveränität und die damit verbundenen aktuellen und kommenden Regularien auf KI-Anwendungsfälle aufklären. Dafür wurden Expertinnen und Experten aus den Bereichen Recht, KI- und Organisationsforschung befragt. Zweitens zeigt die Studie Potenziale und Best Practices von KI-Anwendungsfällen mit überbetrieblichem Datenaustausch auf. Dafür wurden Fallstudien in Unternehmen durchgeführt, die bereits erfolgreich Datenaustausch in ihre Geschäftsmodelle integriert haben, um ihre KI-Applikationen zu betreiben und zu verbessern.
