GENERATE KNOWLEDGE FROM DATA

 

Data on measurements, ratings or photos of products are available on the market for every company. Every company can acquire the same data and use it for itself.

But data alone does not deliver added value. Valuable knowledge is only created by enriching the data with the know-how and experience of the company’s own employees. In addition, internal knowledge is often not or only insufficiently made available to other employees. Valuable knowledge is thus lost or simply inaccessible.

Modern companies are making it their goal to drive forward the digitization of processes and workflows. In doing so, procured data is enriched with proprietary knowledge and solutions are made available centrally and to all relevant departments.

The innovative and highly networkable id-x | platform helps you to realize these goals. Through interfaces, comfortable features and automatisms, simple data becomes valuable knowledge, which you can make available individually in the whole company.

DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION

For the digitization of processes it is not enough to just store information digitally on servers. Digitization with the id-x|platform has the goal of

  • the easy searching and finding of information
  • the continuous availability of knowledge and solutions throughout the company
  • the possibility of global collaboration and the standardization of terminologies and processes

In addition, information, whether external or internal, can be enriched with the company’s own know-how, evaluated, classified and processed into solutions.

COST SAVINGS

A major cost factor in companies today, despite advancing digitization, is the administrative effort involved in data management. Collecting, preparing and sharing data takes a lot of time. With the helpful features of the id-x|platform this effort is reduced enormously to use resources more efficiently. Make your success measurable for a tangible ROI.

PRODUCT OPTIMIZATION

Due to the pressure of competition, companies are continuously challenged to make their products better and better and their processes more and more efficient and to use the advantages of digitalization.
Digitization helps to make knowledge transparent within the company. Solutions for improving products do not have to be developed several times, but are available to the development departments. New ideas and innovations are promoted and can be processed until they are implemented.

iTEMs – A MESH OF DATA OBJECTS

For high flexibility and various application

The id-x | platform is based on a structure of networked data objects (iTEMs) which, due to their flexibility and simplicity, can map many use cases from product development. Through the iTEMS any number and any size of data objects can be defined. Thus your use case can be mapped very precisely. In addition, users can create iTEMs themselves or modify existing ones.
iTEMs can be connected with each other in any way to map real use cases. For example, products can be linked to ideas and additionally to technologies, which in turn are linked to technology clusters or to assemblies / components.
iTEMs and clusters are the essential part of the id-x | platform. They make the id-x | platform a tool that seamlessly integrates into your development processes and immediately generates added value.
