Our Process Consulting Services

Understanding Potentials

Cross-departmental transparent corporate goals and processes are the basis for identifying potentials, which are evaluated and prioritized according to their economic impact. Together with you and your employees, we develop a common understanding for future processes.

Developing Solutions

Based on the greatest economic benefit to the company, we develop solutions and verify them with all those directly involved. In the end, the benefits and the investment result in a convincing return on investment forecast and a concrete time schedule.

Derive decisions

A jointly secured, detailed solution outline is available which includes the added values for increased competitiveness as well as a future-oriented system and process landscape. At the end of the CIDEON process consulting you make the right decisions for future development.

CIDEON Discovery

CIDEON Discovery is our standardized and proven consulting methodology that supports your process requirements along the value chain, focusing on identifying your potential based on your current and future desired ways of working. We start with an as-is assessment, followed by a comprehensive analysis, and work with you to develop a long-term vision. We prepare this in such a way that it can be realized in your everyday work.

CIDEON Engineering Quick-Check

As part of the Engineering Quick Check, we perform a process analysis with regard to the systems you use. Through potential analysis workshops, we compile a comprehensive process diagram and develop an individual optimization concept. The final step is a presentation of the results to the management.

CIDEON ​Process Assessment

The CIDEON Process Assessment is used to analyze your business processes and to examine the exchange between your engineering department and all upstream and downstream areas. 

In a detailed interview phase selected departments are analyzed in detail. The results obtained are clearly presented. After a joint review of the results, they are used as a basis for defining concrete optimization steps.

CIDEON Trainings

The CIDEON Trainings offer you a wide range of practice-oriented training courses in the form of software training from the areas of CAD, CAM, PDM, PLM. Deepen your user knowledge to get even more out of your software, avoid errors and further increase the quality of work.
