Overcoming Connectivity Challenges

From Complexity to Clarity in Data Strategy

Many companies struggle with a complex “spaghetti connectivity”, where numerous systems and interfaces are linked but operate inefficiently.


We untangle these connections and create standardized, robust, and future-proof data flows. Our approach removes unnecessary complexity, minimizes management and maintenance efforts, and improves the stability of your infrastructure.


This enables you to reliably leverage your data and easily adapt to new requirements.

Reduce complexity

Standardized interfaces replace chaotic connections

Increase stability

Simplify administration

Reduced effort for maintenance and system management

Stay flexible

Future-proof connections for growing demands


Seamless Data Communication

Connecting All Levels of the Automation Pyramid

Efficient use of the automation pyramid requires a continuous connection between sensor levels, controllers, IT systems, and the cloud. Often, these levels are only inadequately connected.


We create seamless communication pathways between all levels of the automation pyramid, ensuring that data flows in real-time. This enables you to optimize both operational processes, such as control and monitoring, and strategic tasks, like process optimization and capacity planning, more efficiently.


We ensure that your infrastructure remains stable and flexible enough to meet new requirements without disrupting existing systems. With a clear connection between sensors, machines, IT systems, and cloud platforms, we lay the foundation for future-proof, data-driven processes.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Do you have any additional questions about the services from the Data Strategy portfolio that we haven’t addressed on this page? Check out our FAQ section for answers to the most common questions about our products and services from the Data Ops portfolio. Or feel free to contact us directly.

  • Our production data is not consistently structured. How can we gain control over our data flows?

    We analyze existing data flows from sensors, machines, MES, and ERP, clean redundant data, and structure it so that it is usable across all systems. This improves decision-making processes and reduces manual data collection.

  • Our departments are working with different systems. How do we break down data silos?

    Through horizontal integration, we connect data from different departments so that production, quality, and logistics data converge on a unified platform. Vertical integration ensures that operational machine data flows directly into management decisions.

  • Our infrastructure has become chaotic due to countless interfaces. How do we simplify this?

    We standardize all interfaces and protocols, eliminate redundant connections, and replace individual workarounds with a scalable and low-maintenance architecture. This simplifies system changes and expansions.

  • Our data strategy is based on local systems. How do we make it future-proof?

    We implement a modular architecture that integrates on-premises, cloud, and hybrid solutions, allowing you to scale without completely replacing your existing infrastructure.

  • Our management doesn't have real-time access to production data. How can we change this?

    We provide unified data access for both operational and strategic decisions. With real-time dashboards, decision-makers have direct access to current production metrics and projections.

  • We have a lot of data but few insights. How can we extract actionable information from it?

    Data alone is not useful without structure. We implement data categorization, automated analysis processes, and AI-driven pattern recognition to identify relevant trends and derive projections.

  • Our IT and OT worlds are not synchronized. How do we harmonize them?

    We connect OT data from controllers and sensors directly with IT systems such as ERP and MES to create consistent and seamless data flows across the entire automation pyramid.

  • Our data processing incurs high costs. How can we become more efficient?

    Through structured data management and automation of analysis processes, we reduce redundant storage loads, lower maintenance costs, and optimize computational resources for more efficient utilization.

  • How do we ensure that our data strategy remains flexible in the long term?

    Through an API-driven architecture with open standards, your infrastructure remains adaptable, enabling the integration of new technologies and data sources without major system changes.

  • How do we prevent our data strategy from becoming a one-time project that is not used after two years?

    With continuous monitoring, automation, and regular strategy reviews, we ensure that your data strategy evolves with your business needs and remains productive over the long term.
