INDUSTRY 4.0 WORKSPACE for the INDUSTRIAL INFORMATION WORKER
Human centered robotic Process Automation
By applying Digital Technologies such as I-IoT, Artificial Intelligence or Blockchain to an end to end industrial value chain, Human centered robotic Process Automation augments human capabilities of the industrial information worker and frees the business from repetitive tasks. Wherever people and technology intersect, your people are empowered to be more productive, innovative and strategic.
Exponential opportunities arise for gaining productivity, improving quality, saving costs, reducing errors, increasing scalability and sharpening compliance only, if the organization fosters a cultural change toward innovation and redesigns operating models and business cases.
The concept of ERGONOMIXX - Human centered robotic Process Automation provides all needed complementary elements: Digital TouchPoint, Digital Process Twin, Augmented Workplace

Digital Touch-Point

1.) Digital Touch-Point

The Problem
- Postings to the SAP-system are mostly executed by dedicated employees in fact ex post Shop-floor workers
- Shop floor employees shy away from working directly with the SAP system, as surfaces are naturally very complex
- Process-relevant information from outside the SAP ERP reaches the clerk via different ways, different media and never in real time
- Process-relevant information is distributed across different media (third-party systems, Excel, measurement data, QM systems, etc.)
- Workflows have touch points on different IT systems and applications
Implications
- SAP ERP can not adequately support the actual process flow at the analog TouchPoints
- Posting booths often do not match as they are posted ex post and not in real time
- Process-relevant information is not always available at the time when process-related employees have to make operational decisions
- Workflows are interrupted
- Multiple entries are required, sources of error arise
- Information relevant to the Process is lost

The Solution
Ergonomixx Micro-Apps are applied directly by the information worker and have the following characteristics:
- SAP ERP UI-forms in single dedicated micro-apps
- User interface independent of devices used & according to SAP Fiori guidelines
- Maximum minimal scope of semantnic information
- Context-sensitive preset
- Sensors & Actuators connection of peripheral systems in production & logistics
- Device capabilities like sensors are integrated
Augmented Workplace

Digital Process Twin

3.) Digital Process Twin - Foundation and Subject to the Process of Digital Transformation

Digital Core
SAP Enterprise Resource Planning systems map all internal processes as well as related resources, they represent the actual core of a digital twins to be set up. A consistent database is an absolute prerequisite, whereby the ERP guarantees the so-called "Single Source of Truth".

Digital Touch-Point
With the help of the ERGONOMIXX apps, all analogue input interfaces can be digitized into the ERP system. This ensures that all data in the ERP is recorded in real time and correctly. Digitization efforts must begin by eliminating all existing analog touch points.

3rd Party Application Integration
The integration of third party applications along the value chain can be done using the ERGONOMIXX Digital Touch Points. Data from this is therefore congruent with the data in the ERP and thus completes the data.

Tracking & Tracing
In order to be able to correlate all the data created along the value chain with one another, the most granular tracking and tracing concept is required. This can be done within the ERP within the company. Blockchain services are used for cross-company tracing from the preliminary stages and the downstream processes.

Equipment Data IoT Connectivity
The integration of the cyber-physical sphere, ie of equipment data and IoT sensor data along the entire value chain, allows a depiction of the real processes from the original creation of a product to its marketing and use by the end user.

Augmented Workplace
The concept of ERGONOMIXX Augmented Workplace enables Human-centered robotic Process Automation that extends the capabilities of the industrial information worker and frees him from recurring tasks.
