Producing companies are one of the pillars of the German economy. In a highly dynamic and technically and economically complex environment, they operate in more global and ever more volatile sales, raw materials and financial markets. In this competitive environment, companies in the manufacturing industry must also comply with the changing legal requirements for information and sustainability. Aspects, which the end-user increasingly includes in his purchasing decision. Especially in the areas of energy and the environment, energy-hungry, manufacturing companies are faced with not yet comprehensive challenges. The advancing digitization of further industrial service areas poses new and increased demands on employees and organization.
The initial networking of the Internet of Things (IOT) leads to the shifting and reorganization of whole value chains of established industries. This also presents a variety of challenges for management and control, but also offers huge opportunities for the establishment of new innovative business models.
Many industrial companies are forced not only to optimize the value-added depth, but also to create a differentiation that extends beyond the "hard" product offering through industrial services, and to tap new revenue potentials. The control of these service units differs significantly from manufacturing companies. The different revenue models, the volatility of demand, the high relevance of resource management in the provision of services. In addition, low market penetration barriers are hampering the market for small competitors in the service sector. Producing companies therefore have to align their business model stringently with customer expectations and usage. Performance and Lean (Service) Creation and management become a continuous task and are the core success factor to create an organization and processes that can be flexibly adapted to these market requirements in the future.
