Factory of the Future and Digital Transformation
Enterprises committing in a digital transformation have issues to identify the technological standards to be adopted and to assess the impact of the change on their organization.
Current solutions are characterized by applications obsolescence, loss of data quality at each migration, lack of adaptability and poor robustness. There are not able to fulfill the requirements of collaborative work in extended enterprise. They don’t efficiently support the integration of production and maintenance processes, and thus lead to unavailabilities and overcosts.
Our conviction is that industry can solve these issues, using the web architecture and standards to build the Factory of the Future, that means a sustainable product-services economy.
Factory of the Future and Digital Business Ecosystem
“A digital ecosystem is a distributed, adaptive, open socio-technical system with properties of self-organization, scalability and sustainability inspired from natural ecosystems”(Wikipedia)
The digital business ecosystem enables the representation of a business community, self-organizing, supported by digital technology standards to achieve the objectives of the Factory of the Future.
