【英文】罗兰贝格报告：工业4.0的现状（17页）

Dedicated digital manufacturing units are responsible  for identifying, prioritizing and developing new use  cases. Plants and employees are usually involved in  the identification process by suggesting new use cases  and applications based on their daily challenges.  Communication campaigns demonstrate the value  of the digital manufacturing units to the plants and  secure their support. Some firms have also set up test  labs in which employees can experiment with new  technologies.  

To prioritize use cases, factors such as the business  case (ROI), scalability, value added, technical feasibility  and the cost and effort of implementation are considered.  The piloting of new use cases is then conducted in one  or more selected plants. These can either be dedicated  digital manufacturing pilot sites or the plant that  suggested the specific use case. If successful, the digital  manufacturing unit manages the overall rollout to all  relevant plants in the network.
