The mission
To successfully transition from a project-driven to a product-driven engineering organization, we aim to streamline operations and enhance efficiency across all levels of the company.
The challenges
- Highly variable market requirements and application portfolio
- Significant order backlog and workload of the engineering organization
- Strong competitive pressure on time-to-market
The approach
We build a detailed project plan for the development of a standard product
- Engineering & Procurement Catalog (all building blocks, As-Is and To-Be standardization level, standard/preferred solutions and suppliers)
- Standard project set-up (RBS, PBS, WBS, OBS, WP, Deliverables, tools, etc.)
- Standard way of working (Planning, Project Management, Engineering, Production, Construction)
- Adapted organization
The impacts
- Measurable Cost Reduction: Engineering -30% ; Procurement -15% ; Construction -20%
- Visualized standardization framework (product portfolio and the related processes & responsibilities) for a follow-on project
- Estimated standardization potentials (within the product tree, the documentation/deliverables, etc.)
