Overview
Following a new corporate strategy to expand market leadership, we validated strategic elements and implemented them in the context of corporate logistics. The implementation was based on a capability assessment along the supply chain and scenarios derived from it. At the core of the activity was the development of strategic business model options, as well as the differentiation of existing services as a basis for additional growth in the context of new strategic cooperation and platform models.
Fields of work
Business capability analysis along the supply chain, scenario analysis and development of the target picture, road mapping, transition and implementation approach for expansion of logistics and supplier management

Due diligence must be a basis for good decisions. Often a standard due diligence falls short. We go one step further: Our results not only help with the assessment but also show potentials and fields of action. We create transparency and trust for all parties involved. With an interdisciplinary project team, we have developed a due diligence with a 360° view and interdependencies, which within a very short time provided the client with a foundation for the upcoming decisions in the M&A process.
Fields of work
Research, due diligence analysis, as-is architecture analysis, recommendations for action

Overview
In our co-creative project with DHL, we developed an MVP that supports a data-driven strategic management of the global application portfolio. The AI-based solution identifies relevant information from project documents, highlights critical gaps and makes dependencies transparent.
Integrated into the existing processes, the tool follows a “collective intelligence approach” that focuses on the interaction between people and technology. In this way, both user expectations and technology can be subjected to a reality check. Bringing the transformative power of new technologies on organization and mindset to real live.
Fields of work

In order to offer customers a fully comprehensive service in a highly competitive environment, it is necessary for all physical and digital touchpoints along the customer journey to function in a coordinated manner. Together with all responsible parties of the customer, from marketing to sales to customer service, we concretized the target picture as well as the corresponding roadmap and the associated transformation approach. In addition, new approaches to governance and collaboration were set up to effectively manage the more than 50 initiatives and enable the realignment of the business and IT areas.

Overview
As part of the customer’s strategic business model transformation, the existing technology organization had to be repositioned as the “driver of digitalization”. At the heart of the change was the establishment of a business IT unit with capabilities critical to the digital strategy, including a unit that works as an incubator together with the business units on the strategic transformation of current business models. In addition to a technological maturity step (esp. in the areas of: cloud, data & analytics, automation, DevOps), cultural and collaboration aspects were key to success.
Fields of work
User research, organization and potential analysis, target picture, upskilling management team, transition management, new collaboration models, agilization

What we do_
Digitalization needs diversity - this is how we set priorities. Our approach and our services are integrated seamlessly.
Trends, business development, innovation, digitalization and IT transformations can not be done within boundaries or silos. The challenge is to understand the interdependencies despite the project focus and to act integratively. Our services are geared towards realization.
Business model innovation
We combine talent with experience and methodology. No matter whether your roadmap is already set or you have more of a sense of what digitalization means for you so far: We bring the latest technology trends and connect them to the specifics of your business. We move fast: from idea to prototype, from prototype to "minimum viable product", we approach the finished result step by step, including the anchoring into your organization. Always with the end customer in mind, technically sensible and economically successful.
Work of the future
New work is what the world is asking for! Sustainable digitalization means changing the way we work and the way we respond to change. "Change for Change" is the perspective we open up for your organization - to enable it to work together in new ways to better respond to ongoing change. Structure, skills and culture are the key areas we focus on in our approach.
Machine Learning and AI
The robots are taking over - not. Artificial intelligence and machine learning are nonetheless changing the world in which we live and work at the speed of light. We help you to identify potentials, qualify effects and validate them quickly. We place a special focus on "superminds" that arise when humans and machines collaborate ideally.
Information Security by Design
In a highly technological world, your business risks are shifting. But don't worry: We got your back. We make sure that the protection of your value chain and especially of your data is not only maintained, but increased. Security by design as a concept ensures that you can sleep well regardless of the technological environment you have.
Cloud and IT Transformation
The future is in the clouds. Cloud computing is changing the way we look at IT and business. We support you on your way into the clouds: starting with your business model, via process architecture towards integration. With the necessary view on the changes impacting your organization.
CXO as a Service
No matter where you are in your journey - we help you to accelerate. By closing potential skill and management gaps in your organization while ensuring that know-how will be built up on your end. Seamlessly and directly measurable.
