Do you recognize this?
You know digitalization is necessary, but you lack a clear strategy. You don't have a structured approach to determine which steps make sense for your company.
Your team has different ideas, but you can't reach consensus together. What are the priorities? Where do you start? How do you ensure everyone looks in the same direction?
Maybe you already have three systems that don't talk to each other. Data gets manually retyped, information gets lost between systems, and nobody has the complete overview. You know it can be better, but how?
Vendors overwhelm you with conflicting stories. One says you need a MES system first, another starts with ERP integration. Everyone wants to sell more modules and talks about custom solutions, but nobody gives you the clarity you're looking for. What do you actually need? And in what order?
Meanwhile, quotes pile up, but they don't make you any wiser. You just want to know which steps make sense for your company, without every vendor pushing their own agenda.
What you actually want...
You'd like to develop a clear strategy with your entire team. Put heads together under guidance from someone who knows how digitalization works in metal companies.
You're looking for inspiration and concrete steps. Which direction are you going? What are logical first steps? How do you ensure your team thinks along enthusiastically instead of offering resistance?
You want a structured approach that fits your company. No standard story, but a roadmap that takes your situation, budget, and ambitions into account.
My approach
I tackle this with two intensive sessions where your team develops a strategy together. I guide you through a structured process to reach clear decisions.
After a thorough intake where I get to know your company, I facilitate strategy sessions where you discover the answers yourselves.
💡 Day 1: Explore inspiration and possibilities
- What's possible? Inspiring examples from similar companies
- The digital layers of your factory: where can you make the most impact?
- Joint analysis: where are you now and where do you want to go?
- Team discussion: what fits your culture and ambitions?
- Determine initial priorities: where are the best opportunities?
📍 Day 2: Develop strategy and roadmap
- Work out concrete step-by-step plans with your team
- Investment vs. return: how do you make the right trade-offs?
- Risks and pitfalls: what should you watch out for?
- Team roles and responsibilities: who does what?
- Your digital roadmap: clear next steps
Interactive and inspiring approach:
I lead the discussion and ensure everyone is heard. Your team develops the strategy together. I explain everything in terms of theory and best practices. This creates support and enthusiasm for implementation.

Key questions
Is this a disguised sales presentation?
Absolutely not. I'm an independent consultant with no ties to vendors. I show what's possible from different suppliers, so you can choose what fits your company based on your actual needs, not my commissions.
Isn't this too early for us - we don't have plans yet?
That's exactly why this is the perfect time. Education prevents expensive mistakes. You get a complete overview of what's possible before making any commitments. Much better than discovering later that superior options existed.
What if we don't have time for digitalization?
That's precisely what this training addresses. In just 2 half days, your entire team gains the knowledge to make informed decisions. Timing matters, but education is even more critical.
Can we spare our team for 2 half days?
The workshops are specifically designed for minimal operational disruption. Through the intake process, I align everything with your production schedule. Many companies combine it with team development or plan it during strategic periods.
What if we're a small company?
These workshops deliver the best results for companies starting from 30 employees. Smaller operation? Group training sessions are often more cost-effective. Let's discuss what works best for your situation.
Can you also help us with implementation?
I strongly recommend completing the workshop first to establish your strategic direction. Once your team understands what's possible and has chosen your path, we can explore how I can support the execution phase.
Are subsidies available for these programs?
Most of these programs qualify excellently for various subsidy schemes. Let's explore what's available for your specific situation - we'll identify the most suitable funding solution together.

Stop guessing about what's possible and what has practical value. Book a discovery call where we discuss your situation.
Why act now
You could spend another year searching, postponing, and taking small steps. But meanwhile, competitors are getting ahead with better systems, real-time oversight, and smarter processes.
Digitalisation is becoming the standard. The question isn't whether you'll do this, but when and how smartly you approach it.
These workshops ensure your team has the knowledge to make the right choices. No more guesswork, no expensive mistakes, no regrets afterwards.
Note: I schedule a maximum of 2 workshops per month due to intensive preparation per company. Usually 2-3 months advance booking required.
All workshops subject to availability and confirmation. No rights can be derived from this page. Pricing and availability subject to change without notice.
