We approach projects EASEE
1
Extract
We begin with a disciplined current-state analysis, a structured process to capture all relevant facts neutrally and precisely. This phase is about extraction without judgment: recording what is, not yet what it means.
2
Analyze
Understand root causes and qualify requirements. We break down problems into symptoms and origins, then assess what is truly needed to move forward.
3
Synthesize
We merge facts, problems, and requirements into one coherent solution. This results in a realistic concept that solves root issues and aligns with client needs.
4
Embed
Implement the concept into real world. We integrate the designed solution into the actual environment - with care, precision, and alignment to context.
5
Execute
Activate and operate the solutions. Together we bring the embedded concept to life - ensuring it runs, delivers, and adapts in practice.
Case Studies
Automotive and Manufacturing
Global Distribution Logistics for a Leading Automotive Manufacturer
Germany
We contributed to the development of a global supply chain collaboration model for the vehicle distribution logistics of a major automotive manufacturer. The goal was to streamline operations across land, sea, and overseas segments. This included the integration of transshipment points and partners across Germany, Europe, and global markets.
We captured and analyzed the existing supply chain landscape and optimized it with a focus on collaboration across all stakeholders. The redesigned model was then embedded into a custom-built software tool.
This solution enabled end-to-end tracking, analysis, and monitoring of the distribution process - enhancing transparency, coordination, and operational control on a global scale.
Airport
Capacity and Logistics Concept Development for Airport Operations
Germany
A major transformation was supported at a key European cargo hub, aimed at increasing cargo handling capacity without expanding the physical space. After nearby land was repurposed for a new terminal, the existing cargo area remained geographically constrained and fully utilized.
We facilitated strategic alignment across a complex network of stakeholders, including freight forwarders, logistics companies, and handling agents. Our focus was on guiding collaboration and designing a solution under high operational pressure.
The result was a centralized digital coordination platform that managed chaotic truck traffic flows and enabled increased throughput within existing infrastructure. This initiative laid the groundwork for a digitally regulated cargo system aligned with future terminal operations.
Transport Logistics
Digital Integration and Business Model Innovation in Pan-European
Logistics
Germany
The integration of a pan-European logistics network, formed through the merger of two legacy systems with distinct processes, IT infrastructures, and operational cultures, was supported by us. With more than 260 decentralized yet interlinked partner hubs, the challenge reached well beyond conventional optimization.
We guided the conceptual integration of systems and operations, ensuring continuous functionality during peak transshipment hours, without disrupting the daily flow of goods. Our work focused on harmonizing processes, transforming the operational model, and enabling the shift toward a scalable digital business structure.
The result was a unified IT platform designed for high-performance logistics, reducing costs, saving time, and securing long-term competitiveness in a market increasingly shaped by hybrid digital-physical players. The transformation continues to evolve with ongoing innovation.
Healthcare
Medication Review Process Design in Healthcare
Germany
Our contribution was part of a nationally significant research initiative aimed at optimizing Germany’s legally regulated Medication Review Process. This complex framework engaged multiple stakeholders, including physicians and statutory health insurers.
We guided the design and improvement of the underlying supply chain by analyzing real-world processes and advising key decision-makers. The outcomes were presented at a national symposium and gained widespread adoption across medical practices and insurance institutions.
Our work supported the foundation for a more efficient and coordinated healthcare process within a sensitive regulatory framework.
Retail and Social Services
Operational and Warehouse Process Optimization in Retail
Germany
Comprehensive analysis and optimization of showroom and warehouse logistics were carried out for a client dealing with operational complexity and a pressing need for modernization. Key workflows such as delivery, pickup, material handling, and coordination between warehouse and sales operations were at the center of the effort.
Through structured guidance, we developed a clear and actionable process blueprint that addressed inefficiencies and aligned internal stakeholders. The outcome improved day-to-day performance while laying a solid foundation for scalable digital transformation, positioning the organization for long-term operational growth.
Manufacturing
Material Flow & Shopfloor Optimization in Manufacturing
Germany
A leading manufacturer of safety storage cabinets was supported in preparing its logistics operations for digital transformation. Efforts centered on improving material flow across essential areas including shopfloor logistics, internal transport, and inventory management.
We guided the analysis and optimization of existing workflows, identifying inefficiencies and aligning stakeholders around a shared operational vision. The outcome was a detailed and structured process model that not only improved current logistics performance but also established a solid foundation for the future digital integration of systems.
This project marked a key step toward building a more agile, transparent, and scalable logistics environment within the organization.
Pharmaceutical
Advanced Logistics Optimization in the Pharmaceutical Sector
Germany
Support was provided to a leading diagnostics manufacturer in refining its already highly digitized and optimized logistics setup, with a targeted focus on commission logistics.
Despite the company’s advanced state, our structured process analysis uncovered hidden inefficiencies that were limiting further performance gains. By gathering stakeholder requirements and closely examining operational routines, we were able to propose a restructured process model that addressed these gaps.
The result was a measurable improvement in performance and a noticeable increase in internal alignment, demonstrating that even highly mature systems can benefit from focused, expert-driven optimization.
Power and Renewables
Global Limits of Authority Process Implementation
Worldwide
The global redesign of the Limits of Authority (LoA) process for a major industrial group was one of the initiatives we supported. Implementation was carried out through a regional partner in Southeast Asia. The project spanned multiple international business units. These included sectors such as power generation, industrial processes, and wind energy.
We analyzed and restructured existing approval and delegation structures to ensure compliance, transparency, and performance. The redesigned process was embedded into a digital platform, creating an electronic LoA system that formalized decision-making workflows across global project organizations.
The result was a significant reduction in internal risk-mitigating potential compliance breaches and strengthening governance through a unified and digitized approval framework.
Telecomunication and Internet Services
ERP Process Transformation in Fiber Optic Project Development
Germany
Following a major merger, we contributed to the transformation of a nationwide fiber optic infrastructure rollout for one of Germany’s leading cable network operators. The primary challenge lay in aligning logistics, contract, and construction-related workflows with the company’s newly defined post-merger business model.
We extracted and re-engineered core processes to ensure consistency, efficiency, and scalability across regions. These optimized workflows were then integrated into the Oracle E-Business Suite, creating a unified operational foundation.
The result was a streamlined and coordinated rollout of fiber optic projects across East, North, and Southern Germany, enabling faster execution and stronger alignment between business strategy and field operations.
