Deloitte + Siemens energy solutions

Alliance delivers amplified business value

There’s a paradigm shift underway in the Energy, Resources & Industrials (ER&I) industry. Product R&D strategy, lean product development, digital product development and analytics, and organizational and talent systems are moving from being managed separately to being directly integrated into core business processes. ER&I leaders know that they need to digitally transform to make this paradigm shift happen. The Deloitte and Siemens alliance can help them do it.

At the center of the paradigm shift that’s underway in the ER&I industry is the digital thread, a reimagined version of the value chain that cuts across manufacturing, engineering, and supply chain; is powered by data and advanced analytics; and is optimized for the digital age. Each stage of the digital thread is comprised of and enabled by an integrated ecosystem of digital technologies that work in concert to tackle a particular challenge in the production process. When the digital thread is interwoven with other business processes, it has the potential to create a wave of change in long-held management strategies and deliver amplified business value.

Together, Deloitte and Siemens have the industry knowledge, digital transformation experience, and Siemens energy solutions, methods, tools, and accelerators to help organizations quickly accelerate from product roadmap to increased engineering efficiency, accelerated performance, cost reduction, and improved time-to-market.

Comprised of leading practices and tools, Deloitte’s Momentum methodology enables predictable go-live execution through repeated performance, positioning clients for sustainable success long after their implementation is complete. As a hybrid agile methodology, Momentum supports typical waterfall approaches for technology and change management activities but brings additional flexibility to incorporate user feedback during build and unit testing.

Deloitte’s MBE Center of Excellence provides the business capabilities clients need to achieve connected data across functions and programs, based upon models instead of static data. With MBE as the manufacturing backbone, products are developed virtually and concurrently with requirements from all functions, collapsing organizational silos and dramatically improving collaboration, product cost, quality, and time to market. An agile approach underpins the model-based enterprise’s approach to managing the product/program life cycle.

Deloitte is a market leader in helping ER&I companies implement MBSE, digital twins, and digital thread, capabilities that are critical to becoming a model-based enterprise (MBE). Deloitte offers capability accelerators to enable the digital thread throughout end-to-end Requirements Management and Modern Systems Engineering including Systems Engineering processes, Data Ontology, and methodologies. We are supporting large A&D organizations to implement Model Based Definition, Model Based System Engineering, Digital Twins connected by the Digital Thread, End to End Change Processes, Analytics Platforms and the like.

Digital Twins are virtual models of the physical product or system they represent. They’re the building blocks for MBE that no longer rely on drawings and static data. Deloitte has developed four preconfigured solutions using best-in-class software from Siemens Digital Industries that can help expedite and enhance transformation across digital engineering, industrial simulation, manufacturing execution, and real-time monitoring.

DPLM is an “out-of-the-box” preconfigured accelerator based on Deloitte’s deep experience in lean engineering, industry, process design, technology enablement, organizational change, and program management. Our DPLM pre-configured solution for Siemens Teamcenter accelerates process design through a lean and agile approach, and incorporates industry-leading best practices and lessons learned from 20+ years of client engagements. It also provides XML-based, bi-directional bill of materials (BOM) integration between Teamcenter and SAP.

Deloitte and Siemens co-developed DMES, a process-led, turnkey approach to MES implementation that provides the digital backbone of the manufacturing process to orchestrate assets and resources, guide production, and drive operational efficiency and quality. DMES leverages Deloitte’s deep experience in lean process design, technology enablement, organizational change, and program management to help clients accelerate time to value. DMES+ Mendix App for Siemens Opcenter provides a user-friendly solution accessible through a mobile device for operators, quality technicians, supervisors, and engineers to assist in execution of their day-to-day tasks and maximize the overall effectiveness of operations.

IndustryPrint is Deloitte’s process modeling tool. This standard set of detailed and lean business processes spans end-to-end product development and reflects leading practices for all major operational processes (product development, supply chain, production, human resources, etc.) to accelerate blueprinting. Client-specific process prints developed using IndustryPrint can be used to drive system requirements and tool selection.

The Smart Factory @ Wichita, Deloitte’s new immersive learning center, enables manufacturing clients to optimize their Deloitte-Siemens solutions by narrowing the gap between digital and physical worlds: connecting and collecting production data, analyzing that data to drive better insights, and augmenting human intelligence with machine intelligence to deliver sustained, step-change improvements in performance and safety. By undertaking a smart factory manufacturing initiative, businesses often see numerous benefits, including improved asset efficiency, improved product quality, reduced costs, and improved safety and reliability. Siemens is a top-tier co-founder with Deloitte of the Smart Factory @ Wichita.

Our alliance in action

Oilfield services company Industrial products manufacturer
${tab-1-img-alt}

A major oilfield services company operating a diverse portfolio of products and services across the globe needed to reduce costs through better product design, launch integrated and innovative products, and accelerate the product development cycle by 50 percent. The client engaged Deloitte to assess engineering efficiency and product development capability maturity across the organization. Deloitte conducted value stream mapping (VSM) to identify the root causes of inefficiency and recommend process and organizational improvements. We also developed a high-level implementation roadmap and business case to accelerate Siemens Teamcenter PLM using Deloitte's pre-configured solution and pre-defined business processes. The roadmap helped the company achieve 35-40 percent reduction in cycle time, 25-30 percent reduction in effort time for new product introduction (NPI), and reduce the cost of quality, resulting in more than $165 million in annualized business benefits.

Facing increased product complexity and commoditization, a global electronics and electrical component manufacturer knew it was time for digital transformation. The client turned to Deloitte for help in increasing its product development and manufacturing efficiency and effectiveness to become a first tier engineered solutions partner. We developed and executed a digital development and smart factory assessment, an organization readiness survey, and a digital DNA assessment to define digital maturity. In addition, we conducted visioning exercises with the client’s global leadership team and brought the client team together in a Greenhouse-type lab to prioritize improvement opportunities. Our digital transformation efforts for the client enabled an implementation roadmap and detailed business case with recurring $125 million P&L benefits. Based on the success of this work, the client engaged Deloitte to expand the assessment across additional businesses globally; establish a transformation management office; and lead software selection for product lifecycle management (PLM), application lifecycle management (ALM), and manufacturing execution systems (MES).
