Reorganization of production capacities by Digital Twin in Covid times

 

You are sure to have a very intense time and react step by step to a chain of unforeseen events. We very much hope that you are healthy and that you find good solutions as far as possible.

Building on the market requirements, the internal and external supply chain are optimally coordinated in our solutions.

In the coming weeks and months, the challenge of maintaining the ability to deliver will be intensified by the capacities of your suppliers. The ability to deliver concerns you as a company, as well as your supply networks / chains. You will be intensively involved with the alignment, adjustment and, in many cases, restructuring and realignment of your production capacities and production processes through to a reorganization of the supply chain of intercompany production networks. And this with the uncertainty of volatile markets for the time being. The stability of workforce and thus the expertise as a prerequisite for first class quality is also put to a large, hard test over a longer period. In every respect, the action parameters of the highest flexibility and the quickest adaptability of your plants will have to do justice.

STREMLER REALTIME TECHNOLOGIES combined with SUPPLY CHAIN MODELING is an IT – simulation platform, that, as digital twin, is focused on:   

  • Optimizing in-house production processes and generating increases in efficiency

  • Optimizing intercompany supply relationships and generating increases in efficiency

  • Optimizing customers, suppliers and supply chains on the timeline  

Our solution delivers end-to-end visibility and reactivity, proposing real time alternative courses of action when the production planners and the control center are faced with the question of what-if ... due to

  • Current fluctuations in demand

  • Interruptions in the supply chain, inter or intra company wise, affecting the current process

  • Process interruptions due to system malfunctions

  • Process interruptions due to staff deployment disruptions    

Reference projects of “before Corona” show you that efficiency increases of > 20% could be achieved through the application, without capital investments in changed processes, new equipment investments or other fixed assets usually with a return on investment of 6 months.

For the "after Corona" planning horizon, we support the moderate ramp-up of production capacities that is required over the course of weeks under previously unknown framework conditions, such as

  • "thinned out" working groups (corona prophylaxis)

  • cycle times that change over the time axis in the individual process sections

  • unstable material deliveries that fluctuate over the time axis

  • Unstable staffing over the time axis

... just to describe a few planning and control parameters that are fraught with uncertainty. In this phase the Stremler simulation tool becomes a control cockpit. The digital twin is based on exactly the data used in ERP / SAP / BOM and can therefore be universally adapted to the existing production control system.

We support on you way to resilient supply chain and we take care for realizing the planned results and any kind of situation.
