Baader: Consistent data-based development
Developing a modular kit based on data
Developing the modular system based on data throughout: With the new modular processing center, BAADER integrates a wide range of new technologies and innovative image processing to take automation and yield in fish processing to a new level. The modularity of the machine is an important success factor in order to map a wide range of customer processes and enable upgrades at the customer’s premises. Baader has been using Cquenz since the start of the project to keep an eye on the various design variants during development. Cquenz helps to make the right technical decisions in order to generate the most benefits across all variants. In order to use Cquenz to define the right module cut for an efficient order fulfillment process, various variant formation points in the supply chain are shown and evaluated using unit count simulations. In this way, the course for a lean process can be set much earlier in the supply chain than before. To this end, the team at Baader, with the support of Sales, has set up unit count scenarios, simulated these using the possible module cuts in Cquenz and visualized them for discussion with the team from the supply chain.

To actually leverage targeted potential
The end-to-end data-based work has been met with enthusiasm. “We demonstrated the potential of a modular structure for the first time at an early stage and transferred it to the supply chain,” reports project manager Hannes Scherbarth at the Industry Forum 2024. “Once you start working in a data-based way, you automatically become more professional,” adds Felix Strangmann, Head of Project Management at Baader, “we have now also implemented a data-based sales forecast with the support of Odego and developed many ideas for further expanding and using the data analytics structures that have been created.”
Achieve success
Develop the modular construction kit based on data – and achieve a better product faster. 2 million more turnover, up to 60% less development and design work, 15 weeks faster delivery. If you work consistently with data from the outset, you can leverage the important potential from sales to the supply chain – our customers such as Eppendorf, WAS Ambulanzfahrzeuge and SMB report on this personally and practically.
