Our approach

Smart Products & New Business Models

New operating concepts, optimized product development and engineering processes, along with re-shaped product and service portfolios, enable companies to transform with smart, connected products and new business models.

Intelligent products are reshaping industry boundaries and enabling a new era of hyper-personalized customer experiences. To transform traditional products and services into sustainable smart ones requires a customer-centric and agile development approach.

We accelerate this journey along the entire product lifecycle, from innovation to market roll-out of new products and digital services. We leverage innovative methodologies and strategies, such as digital continuity, model-based-system engineering, intelligent product development, sustainability, business model innovation, platform design, and customer-centricity.

Our cross-industry experience across diverse sectors, including manufacturing, automotive, life science, aerospace, and agriculture, enables us to tailor individual approaches that expedite speed to market. We help clients explore, design, prototype, and develop smart innovative products and new business models for sustainable growth.

To navigate disruption and gain competitive advantage, industries are reimagining their supply chains and manufacturing with intelligent operations. This is a new world in which a digital and sustainable future will be enabled by technology and data.

As technology and global trends disrupt markets, industry leaders must address evolving needs for product and service customization, transparency and trust, new sales and delivery channels, and innovative business models. Industrial networks are being rebuilt and centralized to drive efficiency.

How do you find the right balance between customer satisfaction, sustainability, regulatory requirements, and efficiency? Add to this an avalanche of disruptive technologies, such as AI, demand sensing, digital twin, 5G, and autonomous objects, and the need to adapt is clear.

Our deep sector and functional expertise, and our unique combination of design, technology, and data science, help clients respond, regain operational agility, and capture market share. We empower sustainable, data-led operations with a focus on supply chain, smart plant, and industrial procurement.

To achieve insightful digital transformation at scale, companies need the right data and AI strategy and the related technologies in place to intelligently design and deliver innovative and sustainable solutions that generate industrial performance and new revenues.

Intelligent Industry continues to evolve at speed. New digital technologies enable extended and faster connectivity, greater reliability, and advanced artificial intelligence supporting human performance. This is accompanied by a proliferation of data which, if harnessed correctly, can transform your entire business.

By infusing intelligence everywhere, from engineering through to customer services, manufacturers can deliver disruptive innovation, invent intelligent products, transform operations and business models, and reimagine employee and customer experiences. All driving both top and bottom-line growth.

To seize this opportunity, we help clients unleash the power of data at scale. We define the right data strategy and roadmap, and identify the best combination of digital technologies, from 5G and IoT to cloud computing, machine learning, and green AI.

We take you from idea to prototype to full deployment at speed and scale.
