process errors and lead to a REDUCTION IN QUALITY
COSTS BY 15-20%. Broad datasets can be analyzed in

DIGITAL LEAN TOOLS (e.g. eCare, embedded systems,
predictive maintenance) provide high optimization
potential along the entire value chain of service and
manufacturing companies. TIME TO MARKET can be
REDUCED BY UP TO 40%. Even within lean processes,
PRODUCTIVITY can be INCREASED BY UP TO 25%.
