Solution development 2.0 - provision and roll-out of solution packages with social networking
Abstract
Security Solutions (SES) is a globally acting business unit within the Siemens' division Building Technologies. A part of the headquarters' activities is the development and provision of solution packages for the regional sales organizations. In the past, this was a very centralist process with limited or none participation and feedback of staff coming from regional organizations. To improve this situation, we introduced an interactive and fully transparent process motivating regional colleagues to directly participate during all process stages (requirement collection, technical development, global roll-out, solution lifecycle).
