1 Smart Products, Production & Services»Facing the Smart Future«Call for Partners: Consortium Study Join the consortium to» improve your strategy that makes your products, production processes and services smart(er)» receive a broad and structured overview of mature but also new, innovative smart applications & solutions» learn how to implement these smart solutions by assessing the enabling technologies behind them» assess the value of your collected data, define new services, or rethink the whole business model» work on a transition roadmap and best practices to implement smart solutions» be a part of hands-on trials in an industrial test and trial environment at the RWTH Aachen campus» meet with cross-industrial players and experts to network and learn about their needs and focused smart applications Start: July 2017 End: June 2018 Page 1

2 Motivation Initial Situation Major Outcome for Participants Digitalization, connectivity and sophisticated data analytics are major trends and jointly captured by high level concepts such as»industrie 4.0«and»IoT«. Frequently asked questions of companies are: Which implications does this hype topic have for my company, business unit and my team? Which technologies are needed to be competitive in the Smart Future? What could be beneficial Smart Products, Production Processes and Services for me? A detailed overview of applications and enabling technologies for products, production processes and services Technological and economic transparency Access to a large cross-industrial and interdisciplinary partner network Procedure A structured overview of approximately 300 cross-industrial smart applications and solutions will be delivered based on a global scanning & scouting approach Selected applications will be deeply, technologically evaluated by highly renown research instances like Fraunhofer IPT, PEM, WZL, TIME at RWTH Aachen University After the technological assessment, selected applications will be further evaluated with focus on either estimated ROI, potential for new services, a transition process or a first hands-on trial at RWTH campus in cooperation with the demonstration factory Page 2
