Engineering Efficiency Empowerment Workshop

You've probably experienced this before: a new concept, a new process, a new tool environment is to be introduced, and great scenarios and application patterns are designed with a lot of enthusiasm. And then you  may find that expectations and results don't match. If you don't want this to happen again, here's how we can help.

Proven expertise: tools, best practices, methods, and processes

Nobody wants to change a running system. But it may become inevitable. New compliance requirements may arise, new tasks may need to be integrated and require new tools or workflows, market conditions may evolve, to name just a few possible reasons. Keep calm and turn to us. Our approach follows these simple principles:

  • Understand the constraints of the current environment
  • As few tools as possible, but the right ones!
  • Avoid disruptive changes
That's why our workshops always start with you. Your current environment, its limitations and strengths, what you want to preserve and what you want to change. At SodiusWillert, our experts cover all engineering lifecycle phases from requirements to quality assurance. Our expertise extends beyond tools to include best practices and standard processes as well as integration across tool boundaries. Your needs determine the scope of transformation. That's how we have assisted our clients in many successful projects.

Step 1: localize the bottleneck

Together with your experts we explore the roles and the engineering disciplines involved in the process. We examine where the points of contact between roles and disciplines lie according to the process (defined and real). We collect information about the tools used and analyze which cross-tools interfaces are needed to support the process. Critical workflows are thoroughly examined and refined if necessary.

Step 2: take targeted measures

Based on the findings from step 1, we will elaborate our proposal for taking precisely targeted measures to address the weaknesses and constraints. Since our expertise covers the entire lifecycle, tools, processes and methods, our proposal can include recommendations for any of these areas, depending on the findings. It is your decision which measures you will implement.

Step 3: your single point of contact

We are here to assist you in implementing the measures to remedy the limitations identified in step 1. You decide to what extent you would like to involve our experts. We can act as your central point of contact for the selection, evaluation, and provision of tools, tool integrations, and customizations. In addition, we offer consulting on methods and processes, tool training for your engineers, workshops, coaching, and ongoing support for daily operations.

Your advantage: our experience

Successful engineering projects require the right balance of skills in several dimensions, e.g., in terms of people, processes, methods, tools, architecture, and notations. The overall maturity level of an engineering environment is determined by its weakest element. If one of the resources does not have sufficient skills, this deficit cannot be compensated for by strengthening another resource.

That's why we start our workshop with listening to you. If you are faced with the need to consider changes to your engineering environment, let's work together to find out exactly what will help you. Whether it's new features, new tools, new documentation requirements, or new process requirements, during this workshop you will gain clarity about gaps, needs, and actions to respond to them.

Disruptive changes to the engineering environment and in established processes and methods are associated with high risks. Projects could be delayed or even fail, and team members may not be willing to accept the changes. That is why we always strive to leave as much as possible unchanged. Every improvement should be achieved with as little change as possible. Let us assist you with our broad engineering experience gained over decades.
