In order to introduce load management in the manufacturing industry, some obstacles need to be pointed out. This paper presents a feasible approach on how to implement load management measures in companies.
To this end, load management and energy management are explained and distinguished in a first step. Subsequently, the implementation method is introduced. Therefore, by means of this paper, companies will be enabled to use load management measures and significantly reduce their energy costs. In the second part of the paper, the introduced approach will be applied.
Hence, a use case of a manufacturing company is described. Alongside energy analyses with consumption data, specific measures are presented.
Nowadays, cyber physical systems support the improvement of efficiency in intralogistics by controlling and manipulating the production and logistic environment autonomously. Due to the complexity of the individual production processes, designing suitable cyber-physical systems based on their existing production environment is a challenge for companies.
This paper presents a new methodology on how to design cyber-physical systems conceptually to suit an individual production environment. Compared to existing design approaches, this methodology matches immediately the required functions to existing information and communication technology’s components insisting on the neutral assimilation of requirements.
Therefore, the requirement specification asks for needed functions in relating to offered functions of information and communication technology (ICT) components. The paper focusses the use case of implementing a cutting-edge mobile network technology into an existing tracking and tracing process.
Real-time data analytics methods are key elements to overcome the currently rigid planning and improve manufacturing processes by analysing historical data, detecting patterns and deriving measures to counteract the issues.
The key element to improve, assist and optimize the process flow builds a virtual representation of a product on the shop-floor - called the digital twin or digital shadow. Using the collected data requires a high data quality, therefore measures to verify the correctness of the data are needed. Based on the described issues the paper presents a real-time reference architecture for the order processing.
This reference architecture consists of different layers and integrates real-time data from different sources as well as measures to improve the data quality. Based on this reference architecture, deviations between plan data and feedback data can be measured in real-time and countermeasures to reschedule operations can be applied.
The design of data-driven industrial services in the context of industry 4.0 represents a major challenge for industrial service providers and manufacturing companies for investment goods. Data-driven services require technological and strategic components that most companies have not build up yet and that differ from current configurations. That is why many companies lack a systematic approach and implementation competence for the use of data in the context of industrial services and therefore face the challenge of not being able to expand their market position in an ever-growing competition for data.
The present paper addresses this research deficit with the aim of describing strategic features and characteristics of data-driven industrial services by identifying the related crucial features and characteristics through a morphological approach. This will enable industrial service providers to improve strategic and operative management decisions in order to define a specific strategy and to configure data-driven services.
The importance of social networks and, in particular, enterprise social networks in business contexts is increasing significantly. Regarding the prerequisites for a successful implementation of an enterprise social network, exclusively providing the technical infrastructure is insufficient. A holistic view that considers and integrates different perspectives is crucial for success. This includes technological, organisational and human aspects as equally important parts of the network. This paper identifies prerequisites for a successful launch of enterprise social networks and groups them along these three dimensions.

Der Wirtschaftsstandort Deutschland ist bislang vorrangig auf die Produktion von Gütern ausgerichtet: Kraftwagen und Kraftwagenteile, Maschinen, Datenverarbeitungsgeräte sowie elektronische und optische Erzeugnisse stellten wertmäßig die Hälfte der Gesamtausfuhren des Jahres 2013 dar. Die fortschreitende Globalisierung führt zu einer verstärkten internationalen Wettbewerbsintensität bei sich schneller ändernden Produkten und einem wachsendem Differenzierungsdruck. Industrielle Dienstleistungen stellen vor diesem Hintergrund eine Möglichkeit dar, die technische Leistungsfähigkeit von Produkten zu erweitern und zeitgleich die Abgrenzung und Differenzierung von Wettbewerbern auf internationalen Märkten zu realisieren. Produkte werden durch industrielle Dienstleistungen zu umfassenden und spezifischen Lösungen erweitert, die über die Kerneigenschaften der Produkte hinausgehen und Probleme der Nutzer und Kunden als integriertes System lösen. Sach- und Dienstleistungen werden nach Belz als Leistungssysteme beschrieben, die ausgewählte Kundenprobleme nicht als einzelnes Produkt oder einzelne Dienstleistung, sondern umfassend und wirtschaftlich als Kombination aus Leistungsbestandteilen lösen.
Working capital management is one of the key disciplines that must be prudently monitored for a firm in pursuit of profits, liquidity and growth. The focus of this paper is on the engineer-to-order manufacturers, and the objective is to analyze the correlations between the reference processes of the engineer-to-order production approach with the key postulates of working-capital management and deliver a mathematical operating curves model, whose purpose and goal is basing on the rationale, that is underlying in the parent logistic operating curves theory.

Die Produktentwicklung beeinflusst die Kostenentstehung eines Produkts über den gesamten Lebenszyklus. Daher müssen vielfältige Restriktionen frühzeitig berücksichtigt werden, wie Beanspruchungen an das Produkt oder Restriktionen aus der Instandhaltung und dem Recycling. Die Produktentwicklung beeinflusst auch maßgeblich die Variantenentstehung und legt die Produktvielfalt, die Produktstruktur und die Kosten der Varianten fest. Die Koordination der Aktivitäten in der Produktentwicklung basiert auf einem produktübergreifenden Projektmanagement, um die interdisziplinäre Zusammenarbeit zu organisieren.

Die zunehmende Konzentration von Unternehmen auf ihre Kernkompetenzen und das Agieren auf einem weltweiten Markt führen zu einer stärkeren Kooperation in Unternehmensnetzwerken. Die Organisationsformen von Unternehmensnetzwerken können durch ihre Struktur und ihren Grad der Koordination beschrieben werden. Als Beispiel eines geführten und polyzentrisch strukturierten Unternehmensnetzwerks wird die Virtuelle Fabrik erläutert. Die Virtuelle Fabrik schafft Rahmenbedingungen für Unternehmen, um sich effizient in Ad-hoc-Kooperationen zu organisieren. [https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-662-55426-5_29]
