Digitalization offers companies strategic advantages through the
simplification and optimization of business processes and is an
important lever for long-term growth. Numerous industries already
benefit from optimized coordination of capacities and resources by
integrating digital technologies into business processes. Digital platforms enable, e. g., the demand-based adjustment of asset capacities at peak loads on the basis of data-based forecasts. In particular, small and medium-sized enterprises in the German quarrying industry have so far been denied access to such technologies due to high investment and operating costs, high implementation efforts and heterogeneous machine fleets. This paper presents the functions of the data-centric platform demonstrator “PROmining” developed in
an AiF research project and validates them using case studies with
companies in the industry. The platform demonstrator offers marginally digitalised companies a tool with functions ranging from simple
operational data collection, the evaluation of capacity utilization,
to scenario development for regional demand, which can be used
as a blueprint within their own company. Thus, companies in the
quarrying sector are provided with a low-effort entry into the digital
transformation and a contribution to long-term competitiveness.
Das Forschungsvorhaben PROmining adressiert die Digitalisierung der deutschen S&E‑Industrie. Das Forschungsziel ist der Aufbau eines Demonstrators einer digitalen Plattform, mit der Unternehmen der S&E-Industrie befähigt werden mittels einer gesteigerten Prognosefähigkeit besser auf schwankende Nachfragen zu reagieren. Die gezielte Entwicklung und Implementierung der Digitalisierung in Form einer Plattformökonomie kann der S&E-Industrie mittelbaren und unmittelbaren Nutzen bieten.
