industry

The industry needs to re-invent itself. Across Europe, a re-industrialization is happening because of new geopolitical and economic realities. Strategic autonomy prevents economic vulnerability and is sparking several reshoring, nearshoring and friendshoring initiatives across industries. Climate laws and Net Zero targets are challenging, new requirements for older industries. A process of Creative Destruction is ongoing: several struggling industry sectors are bound to be replaced by new industrial startups.

Why Revitalize?

Our industrial sector is built on an untenable fossil foundation. Government, society and capital providers do not tolerate this ancient business model anymore. Action is required to prevent an industrial mortuary. A company’s profit from the past do not secure its value in the future.

To secure true value creation, a new ambition for the industry is necessary. Forget ‘lowest cost strategies’, but instead look for high quality industrial solutions for future technologies. The innovative talent pool required to bring this about will find its way towards organizations who are frontrunners in this transition process.

The Revitalize Industry institute helps industrial companies and their service providers with the necessary transition towards relevant and economically viable. The Vitality Wheel Ó is the new paradigm specifically developed to help organizations in the industrial sector making the required transition and start the revitalization process.

This is how we revitalize

No business without ambition. That’s how it all started, also with your business. Today Artificial Intelligence, blockchain, robotics and the digital platform-economy requires you to redefine the ambition of your business. Climate laws and net zero requires a redefinition of your organizations mission, vision and strategy statement.

Q: Does your current ambition still fits the opportunities and threats of the 5th industrial revolution?

Ambition

Your company is part of a long, complex value chain. Every single product has its own, unique supply chain. The application of new production technology can drastically shorten your current supply chain, making it more manageable as well as eco-friendlier. Re-shoring, nearshoring, friendshoring and insourcing strategies are gaining momentum in many industries. New European legislation (CSRD) and shaky global trade agreements are the new design parameters for the footprint of global industries. Geopolitical tensions put severe stress on vulnerable, complex global value chains.

Q: How futureproof is the footprint of your company?

Footprint

What do you deliver to your customer? In the previous years, this has transformed from delivering a physical product to providing a customer-oriented solution. Competing on cost and/or quality is not sufficient to set yourself apart from the competition. Customers today demand solutions, not products.

Q: Does your organization sell customer solutions or still physical products?

Solution

Perhaps the most used term in business today. But action speaks louder than words. Successful companies distinguish themselves from the competition by vigorously investing in the innovation of the company’s products and processes. One example is ASML, a global market leader in the semiconductor industry: 37% of all their staff works within R&D.

Q: To what extent and at which speed is your company innovating its products and processes?

Innovation

A successful company without people does not exist. Despite new technologies, clever robotics and artificial intelligence, talented people will remain the foundation for successful companies. People who understand that change is required for progress and survival.

Q: Does the majority of the people in your organization fit this profile?
