Managing Complexity as a Service
How to help your clients reduce complexity and drive performance through data-driven services
With Yvo Saanen, Commercial Director TBA (Konecranes)
February 17th, 2021 |
What are your clients' struggles with increasing complexity?
In today’s complex world, many businesses struggle to continuously take solid decisions to manage and reduce complexity. They miss the necessary approaches for data-driven decision making.
You can grow your digital services by leveraging data to reduce complexity for your clients and improve their performance.
With new data-driven services your clients do not want to miss, you will become a unique partner for your clients. This will help you grow your business during today’s disruptive times.
Clients that cannot manage the complexity will fall behind. As will manufacturers that are not growing their digital services. New - digital-native - entrants will take all growth opportunities away.
Topics we will cover:
- What is the value of data-driven decision-making?
- What does it take, data-driven decision-making?
- What are pitfalls?
- What are examples of advanced services through data?
The new insights will help you to:
- Expand your vision for future (digital) services beyond maintenance services.
- Be amongst the leading pack in your transforming industry.
- Grow your business during today’s disruptive times.
