The five keywords to win the challenge of productive and energetic efficiency
Speaking about productive and energetic efficiency we aren't referring only to the moment in which production starts. Efficiency is guaranteed thanks to the implementation of a series of strategic tools that we can identify with 5 keywords.1) Digitization as a basic cultural attitude.
As essential element for progress, digital innovation must be the starting point for optimizing business processes. We think of digitalization as a tool for solving real and specific organizational and production problems, as well as for marketing purposes.In 4.0 industry, digitalization goes further and allows machinery and equipment to be communicated to us, providing solutions to problems such as:- manage the massive amount of data, making sure that the information reaches us thanks to timely and legible data visualization models, allowing, even where required, to go in depth;
- acquire standard platforms that do not conform to the real needs of the business process. Thinking and approaching digitally the production process, - from data collection from plants to their analysis and use, helps to implement standard platforms or develop totally customized environments;
- to dissociate the cost of digitization from the real benefit. The digitalization of processes avoids unplanned downtime, avoids delays not considered as costs, avoids production waste and non-compliance. It will therefore be possible to monitor this real benefit by developing further improvements.2) Analysis of the aspects to be improved.
If digitizing processes allows us to collect more and more useful information, they are valuable only if analyzed.
This is why it is fundamental for development, to think of productive, organizational, procedural and communicative processes as something that is constantly evolving, always improving. For this purpose it will be useful to compare the analysis of the internal systems and the inputs from the external world.3) Comparison.
Include in the companies the method and the intelligence of professionalism that contribute to find solutions to real problems and seek a constant comparison to set a progressive and continuous development.4) Economic and environmental sustainability.
Real innovation is possible in the short, medium and long term. Each intervention must therefore be accompanied by a specific cost-benefit analysis document, both economic and environmental. For some time now, and even more so in the near future, the customers of our companies, whatever their nature, will no longer be able to disregard the requirements of environmental sustainability, whose requests are increasingly deeply rooted in the conscience of all the inhabitants of the planet.
On the other hand, there are multiple sources of financing for real improvements in energy, production and environmental efficiency.5) Expertise
Those who do business know well that exchange based on mutual trust, both between internal resources and external ones, is a difficult but tremendously necessary science.
A stable and well-functioning production organization is the result of complex activities that are carried out by people who, by definition, must enjoy the trust of their collaborators. The measure of trust is an objective fact: expertise.
"Interdependence" will be one of the key concepts of the way of conceiving and living of companies in the present and in the future, where there will be real revolutions due to the entrance of AI (Artificial Intelligence) and robotics that can evolve into more and more forms. of an android nature. These instances that today seem to be the prerogative of large organizations, are actually already closer than you think and adaptable to companies of any nature and size, from manufacturing to services.
