Many manufacturing companies will be familiar with one challenge: The manufacturing environment is digitalized in line with Industry 4.0, but how can data from mostly non-standardized data sources be interpreted? We explored this question with Siemens at the Future Factory Hack 2022 in Dubai. Based on a digital twin developed by us, the hackathon participants had to simulate a specific application, with Logyc, being the one with the most impressive solution. In a live broadcast from the USA, Logyc and we will present approaches that help to understand the cost, time and sustainability impacts of decisions – from an end-to-end perspective. Logyc offers an AI-powered simulation and modeling platform for this purpose, which has been successfully used in MHP projects to assess the resilience of value streams or supply chains and identify risk mitigation areas. Discover the AI potential in the supply chain. Engineering, Intelligent & Flexible Manufacturing, Supply-Chain Stage H | 04:45 - 05:05 pm | Impulse Session

Mistakes are the driving force behind all personal development. So let’s talk about them! Let’s talk about the cloud migration journey that didn’t go as planned. The journey to the cloud is a big topic for many of our customers right now, so it’s only logical that we too were once taking our first steps into the cloud. This introductory presentation, drawn from the experiences of an expert software developer and architect from MHP, shows the side that hardly anyone else talks about: What can go wrong on a cloud journey? Almost more important, however, is how we dealt with our mistakes and what we learned from them – especially what we learned about error culture. Join us on an exciting journey full of (wrong) decisions and get ready to hear about best practices and experiences that will help you to at least avoid making the same mistakes we did.
