The Future of Nordic Manufacturing

Nordic manufacturing companies are critical to the economic health of our countries. They are very reliant on public business consultants to help them with automation and digitisation as they can help kick-start their journey towards a better use of new technology. Due to the volume of information and the rate of technological change, it’s increasingly difficult for public business consultants to stay current on the latest technologies, processes,innovations as well as methods to help companies.

Digital business model tool
"Up until now, business has been all about ""maximizing own profit,"" meaning that companies have looked from a vendor-centric manner when conducting business. In this era of digitalization, for instance, industry 4.0 and the Internet of Things and other technologies it is required to collaborate with other participants in shared value ecosystems to enable services and acquire data. Hardware, connectivity, software and applications are needed for that, and a small company cannot comprehend all that in an efficient manner, creating incentive to start collaborating.

ShareB2B
"Visionen med ShareB2B er at skabe en portal, der agerer markedsplads for virksomheder med deleøkonomiske intentioner. Ved en sådan platform der skaber overblik over overskudskapacitet der enten udbydes eller efterspørges, vil virksomheder kunne eliminere store omkostninger forbundet med selv at investere i dyre aktiver, som eventuelt kun skal anvendes for en afgrænset periode. ShareB2B kan ses som en fusion af Den Blå Avis’ design for annoncer og Airbnb’s grundlæggende forretningsmodel.

Hyper-flexible artificial intelligence
"90% of all manufacturing companies in Nordic countries have less than 20 employees and very few have more than 250 [1]. This poses unique problems in how to roll out automation and digitisation solutions in nordic countries. These companies do not have in-house ITC specialists and they have difficulties financing customised IT, automation, or big data solutions. They rely on batch manufacturing and have rapid product changes which makes automation difficult.

Get people with digitalization and automation experiece into the board of directors
"Clear description of the idea: Get people with digitalization and automation experiece into the board of directors of industrial companies. These people can then guide the rest of the board of directors (and the CEO) on available technology and how it can be implemented in the company. How the idea could be implemented: One way to accomplished this is to give companies with a board member with certain key qualifications some sort of tax incentive.

Industry 4.0 eLearning platform
"Idea & Solution The final product of the idea is an eLearning platform offering public business consultants the ability to earn certifications within certain specialization areas of industry 4.0. Eventually these certifications will become a standard for the public business consultants as it will serve as a proof of expertise towards the private manufacturing sector, showing that the consultants have background knowledge and a toolbox to support the manufacturers in the transition towards implementing industry 4.0 strategy and initiatives."

From Big Data to Big Business - Using the Research-based DataProfit model for Data-driven Growth
"Idea in Brief: Problem: There is an enormous profit potential for manufacturing firms in big data, but one of the key barriers to obtaining data-driven growth is the lack of knowledge about which capabilities are needed to extract value and profit from data. Solution: We (BDBB research group at CBS) have developed a research-based capability mapping tool, entitled DataProfit, which the public business consultants can use to upgrade their tool kit to enable data-driven growth in manufacturing organizations.

Technology-augment Nordic manufacturing workers instead of displacing them through automation
"The potential for the Nordic manufacturing sector is huge, and more than 50% of our exports stem from the manufacturing sector [1]. However, automation is expensive to implement and it requires specialist skills to maintain, while 90% of all manufacturing companies in Nordic countries employ fewer than 20 employees [1]. Automation lends itself better to high-volume production, of which we have very little left in the region.

Autofartbøde-chip
"En `simpel´ detalje som en chipnøgle i alle nye biler og evt. et påbud om, at alle der ikke har så ny en nøgle skal have det installeret på anden vis i bilen, indtil alle ældre modeller er udskiftet (fra første komma; forslag). Dét denne chipnøgle skal gøre er, at skrive bøden for politiet, ved at måle direkte på motoren/speederen hvor hurtigt vedkommende kører. Næste skridt kan være, at koble personens nemkonto op sammen med chippen og på den måde bliver bøden betalt med det samme.

Internet of Things (IoT) kommunikationsløsning til robotter - Universal Robots
Vores ARCS løsning skaber værdi i form af minimering af produktions nedetid for industrikunderne med UR robotter, idet deres robot operatører kan få SMS’er hvis robotter er stoppet, eller er løbet tør for emner. Løsningen skaber osse værdi for interne eller eksterne support organisationer i forhold til muligheden for remote access via VNC til robotter. Dette gør at man kan få fjernadgang til robotter fra hvor som helst, og fra et hvilken som helst device, for at problemløse, programmere og styre robotter remote.

Lancering af Nød App - Come Quick Danger !
"Vi er fem friske unge mennesker som har lavet en app til at hjælpe folk som kommer i nød ! I gamle dage når nogen desværre f.eks. blev overfaldet på gaden, så råbte man efter ""hjælp"". I fremtiden - som er lige nu - går man ind på sin smartphone og trykke på ""I Need Help"" på CQD (COME quick DANGER) app'en. Straks bliver alle i et område digitalt notificeret om at denne personer råber digitalt hjælp og hvorhenne personen befinder sig! Vi har vha. en sponsor som har lånt os penge arbejdet på at få app udviklet, og nu er den udviklet og endelig kommet i App Storen.
