Silo-to-system transformation

The Control Tower:
One Platform for Design, Factory, and Business

Enterprise platform leadership & ROI

Thesis

Unify disparate functions under one platform to create one source of truth and measurable velocity.

Tension

Fragmented tools, vendor complexity, and production bottlenecks slowed delivery.

Action

Aligned C-suite and engineering; integrated major vendors; enforced secure multi-level access; instituted metrics.

Result

33% faster feature delivery (15→10 days) with lower engineering cost per feature.

Meaning

Single runway for design → factory → business with fewer handoffs and rework.

Cross-functional alignment

Established shared outcomes and rules of the road across design, factory, IT, and leadership.

Vendor & budget governance

Integrated and managed Siemens, Oracle, and other licensed systems to serve the platform.

Operational telemetry

Institutionalized delivery metrics to make throughput and quality visible.
