Siemens Digital Strategy Workshops

Capital Asset Lifecycle Management helps companies make the transition to digitalization, by offering solutions for the planning, design, construction and operation of a capital asset as well as the systems and equipment that make up the capital asset. The solution weaves a digital thread throughout the capital asset lifecycle - from project delivery into operations - to deliver advanced capital project management capabilities as well as a “simulations driven” approach to design, construction and operations. To accomplish this, the solution aggregates and unifies project and operational data from disparate systems (such as third-party CAD/CAE/BIM authoring systems), enables enterprise business processes to manage the evolution of data, and provides decision-support capabilities via analytics, visualization, and simulation. The new solution helps to address many of the challenges facing todays capital asset stakeholders: greenfield and brownfield capital project delays and cost overruns.

Understanding of transport processes (fluid flow, heat transfer & mass transfer) is key for design, troubleshooting and exploring optimum operating conditions. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and particle modeling with Discrete Element Method (DEM) have been identified as key enabling technologies in finding solutions to many of the challenges that surround scale-up; capable of reducing operating costs across manufacturing and quality divisions. We will also talk about how CFD & DEM simulation can be integrated in to process models/process simulation tools for a deeper insight.

Digitalization is not a one-size-fits-all solution but rather a progression that varies greatly based on every company’s systems, internal processes, and automation tools. To ensure that the right digitalization option is chosen at the right time, it is imperative to gain a holistic view of an operation by answering questions related to production needs, pain points, strategic goals as well as available time and investment. One way to ensure that all aspects of a digital transformation are considered is to take a consultative approach that seeks to answer these questions with the aim of putting together a customized digitalization roadmap. Such a roadmap should go beyond standalone projects by assessing the latest developments in process control, analyzing the increasing amount of intelligence coming from smart field devices and review methods to capitalize on the information they provide. The intent is to, first and foremost, focus on implementing quick win projects with the most solid return on investment. Presented by Jonas Norinder and Charles Fialkowski.
