SECURITY

By OT strategy, we mean a comprehensive plan that governs the management and application of operational technologies in a company to achieve its business objectives. It is a dynamic process that involves identifying opportunities for operational technology innovation, assessing risks and costs, and aligning OT initiatives with business objectives. The success of the OT strategy depends largely on the effective governance and management of operational technologies within the enterprise.

We advise companies on developing a customized OT strategy that is aligned with their individual business objectives. We evaluate existing operating technologies, assess risks and implement OT initiatives to enable effective use of operating technologies. In addition, we sensitize employees in the use of operating technologies in order to successfully implement the OT strategy.

COST & VALUE

In order to manage, maintain and optimize OT systems in a company, a structured and standardized approach is required - the OT processes. These processes include a variety of activities such as handling incidents, managing change, planning capacities and managing risks. Successful implementation of these processes is essential to ensure the availability and reliability of OT systems and that they meet the organization's business objectives.

To achieve efficient and effective management of OT systems, we support our customers in defining and optimizing OT processes. Working together, we create a holistic solution that specifically implements the company's OT strategy.

To enable effective and efficient delivery of operational technology services, OT service management (OTSM) employs a set of practices and processes.

OTSM practices and processes help ensure the continuity and quality of OT services and continuously improve them to meet the changing needs of the business.

We help companies establish purposeful OTSM. In doing so, we focus on value creation, taking into account the individual influencing factors.
