Digital transformation not only impacts the emergence of technologies and the reformulation of some sectors of the organization. It is also a change of mindset and processes within a company, as Professor Marco Coghi commented in his post , consisting of implementations of flow, technologies and vision of his own business.
Therefore, it is necessary to have a systemic view for the change to occur broadly and integrated otherwise will be created “bottlenecks” and silos generating technological disparity in the operation.
But what really is the concept of systemic vision? It means making assertive decisions considering all the factors involved. It is a way of managing the business by understanding each of the parts that make it up. This competence is extremely important for strategic decision making and assists in the expansion of business and improving results.
Therefore, to develop the systemic vision it is necessary to know the company well and its departments. In addition, it is essential to understand business objectives and their goals for the short, medium and long term.
Investing in training can also be useful for developing systemic vision in the company's leaders. Identifying obstacles and its origin is also important to make assertive decisions considering all the factors involved.
Another tip is to think of processes instead of separate departments. This helps to see the business globally and get out of the comfort zone.
Main advantages
Some of the main advantages of systemic vision include:
Decision aid - When considering all factors involved in a situation, it is possible to have a broader and more complete view of the scenario, which can lead to better founded and effective decisions.
Continuous improvement - processes are done with greater attention and quality. This is because the systemic view allows a broader and more integrated understanding of processes and relationships between them. With this broader understanding, it is possible to identify opportunities for improvement and implement changes that promote continuous improvement.
Increased productivity - it allows a broader and more integrated understanding of processes and relationships between them. This can lead to process optimization and greater efficiency in performing tasks.
Failure reduction - When considering all factors involved in a situation, it is possible to make better and effective decisions, which can lead to a reduction in failures.
Systemic view in digital transformation
Digital transformation is a continuous, dynamic and organic process. During its evolution, there is also the advancement of technology itself, which increases the complexity and the need for adequacy to fluid innovations.
Within the systemic view, it is also important to see these production processes as a continuous flow and not segment them in several independent units. This ensures that the whole operation is aligned with the transformation process.
There are several ways to address a company's digital transformation and the best way can vary depending on the organization's specific needs and objectives.
In addition, it is important to implement a culture of innovation and keep the team engaged, as well as consider successful models such as SAAS (Software as A Service). Digital transformation must be a continuous process and it is essential that the organization is committed to adapting to generate competitive advantages.
Systemic view through IoT
The Internet of Things (IoT) has revolutionized business processes as one of the pillars of digital transformation. IoT allows devices, sensors, platforms and applications to connect to the digital world, enabling communication between components and data analysis.
Intelligent sensors help in capturing and generating data that can be transformed into information so that companies can cut spending, have higher level of automation and be able to avoid medium and long term problems. IoT can influence companies in various scenarios, which makes this technology a true digital transformation mechanism.
IoT Industrial is one of the main technologies implemented in a digital transformation process and represents an foundation for all other complementary technologies and needs to be modular, with a layer architecture that allows the centralization of information and wide connection of protocols, equipment and systems .
To contribute to companies in advancing digital transformation, Above-Net offers Bridgemeter , an industrial cloud IoT solution that enables connection to any market sensor and PLC and monitors equipment operating conditions. In addition, Bridgemeter has integration layers from assets to legacy systems through data structure and process automation that continuously monitor all technological innovations.
The solution also features dashboards and smart rules programming for data analysis and prediction, identifying anomalies that could evolve into a failure and avoiding unplanned stops. The intelligence of the solution dispenses with the need to monitor dashboards that can be accessed when necessary.
Conclusion
In the information age, to have multiple systems that generate data, but do not talk to each other, it is one of the main mistakes of many companies on the path of digital transformation. Flexibility in data collection, allowing the acquisition of various sources, as well as interoperability with existing systems in the company make Bridgemeter a solution completely aligned with the concept of systemic vision.
Regardless of the technological maturity of the operation or the amount of protocols involved in the TI/TA routine, Above-Net, through Bridgemeter, can help your company turn data into information that will make a difference in everyday life.
