Mechanical engineering and plant construction is more dependent on developments on the world markets than almost any other industry. High technological and product competence, consistent internationalisation and permanent innovation have made many German manufacturers of machinery and plants world market leaders. Digitisation pressure, material shortages, climate policy measures and intensifying international competition are the key challenges that the industry is currently facing. Prompt adjustments in the service portfolio of machine and plant manufacturers are in demand - from internationally active industry leaders as well as from smaller supplier companies.
Process optimisation in mechanical engineering and plant construction
Industry 4.0 and the ongoing digitisation of services and processes are causing large transformations in companies and require new business models time and again. IoT (Internet of Things) supported processes are revolutionising the networking of components and machines. Plants coordinate procurement, production and maintenance processes as independently as possible. Information technology and manufacturing engineering merge increasingly.
In order to successfully master these challenges, machine and plant manufacturers must better understand their markets and the requirements of their customers, adapt their market strategies and constantly optimise their processes and organisational structures and consistently align them to the market.
