BSH uses data to get faster from design to production

Bridging the gap between product and production

Managing brands like Bosch, Gaggenau und Neff across thousands of variants and five categories – while balancing sustainability regulations, rapid innovation, and global competition – creates complexity. BSH manages this complexity by becoming a Digital Enterprise. The company accomplishes this by digitalizing and integrating the entire product lifecycle management process, from product design and manufacturing to delivery. They use a digital tool chain and a single data backbone to transform complexity into speed, efficiency, and productivity by closing the gap between product development and production.

Building flexible production for new product variants

In addition to Teamcenter, BSH uses a broad range of solutions from the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio. Manufacturing engineers and production planners use the data to simulate and optimize production processes, allowing the factories to quickly adapt to new product variants and changing market demands. This software-defined production uses intelligence to drive the lines and integrates shop floor data to continuously improve production planning and plant capacity utilization. This enables BSH to optimize productivity worldwide.
