Supply Chain Digitization

Innovative information and communication technologies are decisive levers for optimizing supply chain processes.

By digitizing the supply chain, companies can monitor the status of orders, assets and inventories in real time and make informed decisions at an early stage. In addition, advanced digitalization solutions, particularly in the field of artificial intelligence (AI), enable more precise decision-making. This leads to improved customer orientation and increased resilience.

 

As a neutral research institution, we present the opportunities and potential of these innovative digitalization solutions and discuss promising use cases for your company. We offer comprehensive solutions and customized consulting services to help you make your processes more efficient and secure competitive advantages.

Successful digitalization requires a company-specific framework that fits in with existing processes and points the way forward. We analyse the level of digitalization maturity and define goals and visions for your company. Based on this, we determine fields of action and implementation projects, which we transfer into a digitalization roadmap together with you.

Studies and prototypes

Tailor-made, highly innovative software solutions for your company

There are numerous innovative technological approaches and ideas for the complex challenges in supply chain management. However, there are often no commercial software solutions that are ready for immediate use. For these use cases, we conduct individual potential studies for you and, if necessary, develop appropriate software solutions that are tailored to your requirements - usually based on open source components.
