TÜV SÜD Industry 4.0 Advisory Services

Industry 4.0 is gathering momentum globally. An increasing number of companies are planning to deploy, or are already implementing, smart factory solutions to gain a competitive advantage.

While digital transformation can significantly improve your production efficiency, designing and executing a complex I4.0 transformation can be challenging. Many manufacturers do not know how to start,  identify and prioritise opportunities, and implement and sustain high-impact initiatives.

TÜV SÜD’s team of technical and interdisciplinary experts collaborate with you to identify and implement value-driven I4.0 initiatives. These seamlessly integrate into your infrastructure and operations across the value chain, aligned with your economic and environmental sustainability targets, and guided by a strong focus on safety, security, and reliability. 

Why Choose TÜV SÜD Industry 4.0 Advisory? 

At TÜV SÜD, our I4.0 Advisory Services adopts a holistic viewpoint. We work across all functional areas of your manufacturing network to help you realise the full potential of I4.0. We offer a systematic and integrated approach, as well as pragmatic, value-driven problem resolution. 

We are committed to ensuring your digital transformation's safety, security, and sustainability. From flexible production lines and modular assembly lines to supply chain integration, agile manufacturing, manufacturing process optimisation, and sustainable manufacturing, you can be sure our I4.0 Advisory Services can help you thrive in the digital future of manufacturing.

“TÜV SÜD consultants are very down-to-earth and their work and recommendations are very practical. They helped us verify our approach with insights on industry best practices. In my previous experience, other consultants would tell me to ‘go to Mars’ without providing pragmatic solutions. 

I’m glad to see that my team has kick-started some projects specified in the roadmap. We will continue to collaborate with the TÜV SÜD team for the next step after digesting all the recommendations internally.”
