    Signaal 63 - SmartSavings
    And so another Signaal appears with the theme SmartSavings. Fortunately, it does not get boring, because there are always new, interesting and promising stories to tell about smart, green investments. Such as Martijn de Graaff's story about electrification in Dutch industry. Interesting, because it is not only about technical innovations for neutral energy supply and circular solutions for raw materials, but also about new strategic 'make or buy' decisions, based on energy costs and the preservation and development of knowledge in the context of changing political forces in the world.

Real top players and top teams realize this and deliver Results. No one is surprised when they do it again and again win or at least be in the final.

    Signaal 60 - SmartSavings
    De Europese klimaatwet maakt als deel van de Europese Green Deal klimaatneutraliteit tegen 2050 wettelijk bindend. Dat is al snel en daarom lezen we dagelijks over nieuwe klimaatregels en ook hoe het regelmatig schuurt om die in te voeren. Helemaal in die sfeer stelt Harry van Dijk in ons hoofdartikel dat in de klimaatneutrale toekomst elektrificatie voor de industrie onontkoombaar is en de sector er dus maar beter nú mee kan beginnen. Dit klinkt zo vanzelfsprekend en dwingend, dat we bijna vergeten waarom.

    Signaal 58 - FastForward
    In de derde industriële revolutie kwam de automatisering van productieprocessen in een stroomversnelling, onder andere door de introductie van PLC-technologie. De huidige vierde industriële revolutie omvat simpel gezegd de introductie van internet in de fabriek. Dit Internet Of Things biedt veelbelovende mogelijkheden met mooie namen als cyber-physical systems, digital twins en predictive analytics. Maar het brengt ook alle keerzijden en mogelijke gevaren van het internet met zich mee…

    Signaal 58 - FastForward
    Vorig jaar hebben we thema’s geïntroduceerd die als een rode draad door onze bedrijfstak lopen: SafetyFirst, SmartSavings en FastForward. We konden niet voorzien dat elk van die thema’s zoveel nieuws zou bieden met zoveel verschillende invalshoeken. Nu de pandemie (voor even) is gaan liggen en oorlog woedt aan de grenzen van Europa, staat de wereld op zijn kop. Zekerheden in de toeleveringsketen staan op losse schroeven, prijzen schieten omhoog en vooraanstaande fabrikanten als Siemens en Schneider Electric trekken zich terug uit Rusland.

    Signaal 57 - Omnichannel
    In our editorial, Robert Rooderkerk of Erasmus University Rotterdam defines omnichannel as the close interweaving of the marketing and operations functions to serve customers better, via whatever channel. To achieve this, far-reaching integration of all information systems is necessary. The goal is a frictionless 'customer journey', in which any frictions must be detected and resolved. According to Robert, companies must be obsessive about omnichannel: incessantly, customer satisfaction must be top of mind.

    Signaal 55 - Fast Forward
    Na de introductie van Safety First als eerste thema van onze series van kennisevenementen, marktinnovaties en producten, volgt deze keer »Fast Forward. Bij »Fast Forward draait alles om sneller produceren in de maakindustrie. En hoe toepasselijk is dat dit jaar! Want vanuit de historische COVID-dip schieten we met elkaar zonder aarzelen door naar de hoogste versnelling. Verwachtingen worden vermorzeld en het optimisme lijkt grenzeloos. Maar toch zijn er grenzen: goede mensen en grondstoffen zijn schaars. Daarom is het belangrijk om juist nu met dezelfde bezetting meer omzet te genereren, bijvoorbeeld met Quick Response Manufacturing.

    Signaal 54 - Safety First
    Onze nationale filosoof Johan Cruijff zei altijd: elk nadeel heeft zijn voordeel. En in zekere zin zou je kunnen stellen dat COVID heeft geleid tot duurzame voordelen, vooral op het gebied van veiligheid. Veiligheid heeft zich in het afgelopen jaar ontwikkeld van een concept tot een tweede natuur. Van theorie tot bewustwording, van extrinsieke motivatie gebaseerd op regels en handhaving tot intrinsiek belang, gebaseerd op oprechte zorg om anderen en jezelf. In onze Signaal-uitgave over voedselveiligheid heb ik al aangegeven dat veiligheid een fundamentele behoefte is volgens de Maslow-hiërarchie. In onze westerse samenleving leefden we al meer dan 70 jaar zonder grote bedreigingen zoals oorlogen en plagen. Nu is een hele generatie wakker geschud. En we doen er verstandig aan om de lessen van de pandemie om te zetten in gedrag, zowel thuis als op het werk. Met andere woorden: laten we ervoor zorgen dat de voordelen van een veiligere werkomgeving nu niet langer puur hypothetisch zijn, zoals professor Reniers opmerkt in ons hoofdartikel.

    Signaal 53 - Technical Support
    Effectief aanpassen aan nieuwe situaties vergt een mentaliteit die gericht is op kansen. Nu we nog steeds in onze voortdurende COVID-uitdagingen zitten, is het van cruciaal belang dat we dit samen in gedachten houden. En nu de urgentie zo hoog is, zijn er ook veel kansen. Laten we daarom, zoals Churchill zei, een goede crisis niet verspillen en gebruik maken van deze kansen. Veel kansen ontstaan door digitalisering, zoals professor van Houtum stelt in ons hoofdartikel. Digitalisering maakt het niet alleen mogelijk om op afstand toegang te krijgen en analyses en interventies te doen, maar legt bijvoorbeeld ook een extra informatielaag over de werkelijke situatie. Deze nieuwe functionaliteiten zijn hard nodig vanwege de toenemende integratie van complexe componenten en systemen. Gecombineerd met het tekort aan gekwalificeerd technisch personeel zal dit ook de aard van de technische support veranderen.
