Devices, machines, plants, components
After the impulses on the production side through Industry 4.0, many digital lighthouse projects have emerged on the market side through enormous innovation efforts in recent years. The problem with these lighthouse projects – they do not shine. It turns out that the hoped-for savings on the cost side and the additional growth on the revenue side have not materialised. If you look at the map of initiatives, you often find a number of well-made isolated solutions that were deliberately created to avoid unwanted dependencies on the core organisation. Companies have learned so much.
However, these isolated solutions are not suitable for the increasing demand for digital sales and service concepts and the higher market penetration of “connected” products.
Digitalisation
Innovative B2B platform
Leading manufacturer of pumps, valves and related services
The digitalisation of pumps with KSB Guard on a B2B platform: sensors on the pump, data processing in the KSB Cloud, information available on the move via the KSB Guard web portal or with the KSB Guard app.
Time to convert the islands into a platform solution
On the one hand, a platform can exploit the digitalisation advantages on the cost side and, on the other hand, map the customer journey as an end-to-end experience from initial interest to search and purchase to delivery and subsequent service. To this end, we have built a digital platform that is the only one of its kind on the market: KPS/growth – Instant Platform for mechanical engineers and component manufacturers. For the first time, all of your industry’s market-facing processes are united with the best technology components available on the market on a single business platform, instantly accessible and ready-to-use – and this for all customer interactions and dockable to the operational core business.

Lincoln Electric
World market leader for welding equipment and solutions
KPS has been working with Lincoln Electrics for several years and supports the manufacturer in the expansion of the global Digital Enterprise SAP platform. The integration of acquired companies and their products and services into the existing process and system landscape is just as much part of the ongoing project initiatives as the organisational integration of the new companies into the group structure.
