As a manufacturer of mechanical and electrical drive systems, Flender has received an increasing number of requests for customisable gearboxes. This is because what has long been standard in the consumer sector has also reached the B2B segment: the pronounced customer desire for products with a wide range of variants that can be customised as required. However, being able to supply the right gearbox for every requirement was previously a complex and costly endeavour. Together with adesso, Flender therefore pursued the goal of automating business processes on the basis of a holistic, sophisticated enterprise architecture.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\"Flender One is a real breakthrough in the direction of individualisation - and sustainability. Our customers receive a completely new type of gearbox solution that always fulfils their requirements precisely and thus avoids waste. This is made possible by the automation of our business processes based on a holistic and sophisticated enterprise architecture. Our engineers in the sales and production processes are thus relieved and the time it takes for the gearbox to reach the customer is reduced.\"<\/em><\/h4>

However, as simple as the customer's request for a customised product may be, its impact on the products and processes of manufacturing companies is just as complex. If Flender changes just one component on the gearbox, for example, the entire design has to be rechecked. This is a task that, when carried out manually, can be time-consuming for the engineers. Similar challenges can be found along the entire value chain, making the complexity ever greater.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Together with adesso, Flender has comprehensively digitalised and automated its order acquisition and order processing process. The result is an enterprise architecture for variant management. This includes a smart modular system for variant configuration that controls all business processes as a central orchestrator. This includes all workflows from the customer's enquiry to the final commissioning and service at the operator's premises.<\/p>

In order to realise this enterprise architecture, adesso interlinked various modular solutions from different system worlds - from SAP and Salesforce to Microsoft Azure and other tools. In this way, adesso delivered everything from a single source, including the design of a customer portal that offers 3D visualisation of the gearboxes and simple self-configuration by the customer.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Flender is able to offer smart configurable gear units at attractive conditions. Getting there is easy for both sides. In just a few steps, companies can configure a gearbox that fulfils their individual requirements - in the usual high Flender quality. Flender itself reduces the workload of its engineers thanks to smart variant management. It also reduces throughput times and cuts production costs.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\"Application, performance, speed: customers will soon be able to find the right gearbox solution with just three parameters. We no longer ask about the specifications and properties of the gearbox, but only about the desired benefits. The customer tells us how and where they want to use the gearbox, and we tell them which gearbox with which functions they need.\"<\/em><\/h4>
