As clients continue to improve and refine their operating models, they seek to push traditional boundaries, using advanced analytics and a deeper understanding of underlying costs and value drivers to move beyond tactical levers toward more innovative sourcing strategies and structural opportunities to improve organizational resilience to volatile external markets.

  • THE DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION of INDUSTRY How Important Is It? Who Are the Winners? What Must Be Done Now? in Brief
    A European study commissioned by the Federation of German Industries (BDI) and conducted by Roland Berger Strategy Consultants THE DIGITAL TRANSFORMATION OF INDUSTRY How important is it? Who are the winners? What must be done now? In brief +1.25 trillion euros SEIZE OPPORTUNITIES! CHANGE STRUCTURES! JOIN FORCES! 2 Roland Berger Strategy Consultants / BDI The digital transformation of industry In brief 1 The digital transformation of industry is creating tremendous opportunities for Europe – and confronting it with huge challenges. The possibilities opened up by connected, more efficient production and new business models are highly promising, yet the risks are equally dramatic. By 2025, Europe could see its manufacturing industry add gross value worth 1.25 trillion euros – or suffer the loss of 605 billion euros in foregone value added. 2 The digital transformation of industry is also driving a radical structural transition in Europe's economies. New data, connectivity, automation and the digital customer interface are challenging existing value chains. Companies must take a long, hard look at their products and skill sets. And they have to improve their digital maturity if they are to recognize new opportunities, develop suitable offerings and get them to market quickly. 3 The digital transformation of industry demands concerted action within Europe. The regulatory framework must be harmonized, with a new weighting given to relevant issues. At the same time, a powerful, no-gaps informa- tion and communications infrastructure is needed if European industry is to remain competitive. As standards are shaping our digital future, companies and governments need to get engaged seriously in their global definition.
