    Consulting in production machining
     

    Practical consulting for medium-sized manufacturing companies

    Automation and end-to-end digitalization, including comprehensive data acquisition and analysis, are critical factors for gaining a competitive advantage in the dynamic production machining environment. These enable companies to better meet labor challenges and gain deep insight in their production processes, thereby establishing a solid foundation for informed business decisions and ensuring competitiveness. Many companies are confronted by the challenge where they often lack the internal expertise to effectively implement meaningful automation and digitalization processes along the entire value chain.

    The solution comes from external consulting: With targeted specialist knowledge and an objective outside perspective, our experts support you in a focused and sustainable implementation of the digital transformation. With this approach tailored to your specific company, we work together with you to maximize your efficiency and design your value chain to meet and then exceed the complex demands of the global market. This strategic realignment is the key to your long-term success and improves your competitiveness.

    Why are we experts in production machining?

    Before we started our consulting careers at Tebis Consulting, we had already accumulated many years of professional experience in the industry. This enables us not only to communicate theoretical knowledge, but also to provide tried and proven practical strategies from our own experience. We can therefore communicate with all employees as equals and can understand precisely the challenges they face. We supplement this essential ability by offering the following industry-specific solutions for production machining companies:

    Companies can use standardized key figures from our benchmark database to objectively measure their own performance and evaluate it in comparison with industry standards. This data-oriented approach enables decision-makers to develop their strategies based on solid data. Using the benchmark database thus contributes significantly to sustainably increasing your company's success.

    Future trends in production machining consulting.

    The production machining industry is constantly confronted with new trends and challenges driven by technical advances, changing market conditions and the dynamics of the global economy. The industry is currently facing several challenges that stand to permanently change how production machining companies operate.


    End-to-enddigitalization & data acquisition

    Ongoing digitalization is one of the key trends in production machining. Industry 4.0 or the fourth industrial revolution brings with it increased networking of machines and processes as well as more comprehensive data collection and analysis. Our task as consultants is to support end-to-end digitalization, from conception to implementation. This includes comprehensive data collection and analysis that gives companies deeper insight into their processes and enables them to make informed decisions.

    Through geopolitical changes, crises and climate change, German industry is also facing increased pressure to digitalize its supply chains. Digitalization along the supply chain is an expedient approach to create the necessary transparency and efficiency, support sustainable production processes and strengthen resilience to external shocks.


    Automation and skilled labor

    Automation in production machining confronts companies with the challenge of recruiting and training qualified specialists who can develop and maintain complex automated systems. The demand for specialized knowledge in mechatronics, programming and systems integration is growing, accompanied by the need to continuously train existing employees. A culture of innovation and approaching changes in technology as an opportunity absolutely must be promoted to successfully negotiate this transition. As external consultants, we contribute specialized knowledge and stand on equal ground with your employees to jointly develop optimal solutions for the challenges of automation.


    Sustainability - implementation in small and medium-sized companies

    Sustainability is more than just an ethical imperative, but is increasingly also an economic factor. We support small and medium-sized companies in the practical implementation of sustainability. This can range from the optimization of resource efficiency and the implementation of circular economy concepts to compliance with environmental standards and regulations. Lean management principles can help to integrate sustainability in such a way that it contributes to value enhancement and is not perceived as a cost factor.


    Future use of artificial intelligence

    Artificial intelligence and machine learning are becoming increasingly important for developing innovative machines that can independently recognize and solve problems. In production machining, this enables an increase in efficiency, as machines can independently optimize work processes and adapt to changing conditions. As consultants, we work with you to develop individual concepts to enable effective collaboration between human work and artificial intelligence.


    Efficiency in value creation

    The goal of all these trends is to improve efficiency in value creation, which in turn increases productivity. We work together with you to develop strategies combining the implementation of modern technology with the optimization of business processes. This requires an in-depth understanding of the respective corporate culture and market dynamics in order to create customized solutions that ensure sustainable competitive advantages. Companies who recognize and integrate these trends at an early stage will be well-positioned to successfully handle future challenges.
