CM Forum Summit 2016

What's next for Configuration Management?

CM Forum event no 4 2016

Join us in summarizing the past two years of CM Forum! Celebrate the release of CM Forum's second white paper and take part in the workshop and discussion on this event's topic:
What's next for Configuration Management?

We will take part of two case stories - presented by organisations that currently are on a journey, preparing their CM capability for the future: Saab and Tetrapak.

The last workshop of the year will discuss the CM implications of Circular Economy. This concept captures the growing trend of re-using and recycling resources and the shift from selling a product to selling the service the product provides. The premise of the workshop will be that many of the methods and tools required to benefit from the business models in a circular economy already are accessible today within the Systems Engineering and Logistics Engineering domains. Our workshop will discuss what this shift means for CM.

13.00 Workshop – Configuration Management as an enabler for circular economy

” shape=”round” width=”full” effect=”fadeInLeft”]

Realizing that the resources of our planet are finite, the concept Circular Economy is getting increased attention. Traditionally a product is made available to a customer through a financial transaction that transfers ownership of the product from the manufacturer to the customer. However, there is a growing drive to change the business models to be more service oriented and we have seen a number of forerunners, such as Xerox’s “cost per copy” program, BMW’s DriveNow, and Volvo’s Sunfleet. These are examples where the supplier provides a combination of physical products, consumables, and services to secure that the customer can benefit from the “service of the product” without having to own, maintain, or repair the product him-/herself.

So, the questions is – What do the business models that come with circular economy imply for Configuration Management?

The workshop will start with a presentation by Christer Fröling, Syntell, on the concept of Circular Economy and how it affects our current practices, methodologies and mindsets.
