Clarify customer needs and constraints.
Translate manufacturing problems into buildable, supportable solutions.
Solutions owns discovery, architecture, design quality, technical assumptions, implementation enablement, and the patterns that connect Siemens platforms with customer operations.
Define platforms, flows, and assumptions.
Prepare teams to deliver and support.
Validate that the solution is supportable.
Design Gates
Business problem, stakeholders, value, and constraints are understood.
Proposed pattern aligns with Siemens stack, security, integration, and support needs.
Scope, assumptions, acceptance criteria, estimates, and risks are ready for PMO.
SMS, CS, and Infra have support handoff materials and known operational risks.
Core Scope
Discovery
Clarify current-state process, business goals, integrations, constraints, and acceptance criteria.
Architecture
Design scalable platform patterns, integration flows, data models, and environment assumptions.
Enablement
Equip delivery, support, and customer teams with designs, demos, templates, and handoff evidence.
Key Resources
Architecture Diagrams
Reference designs, topologies, integration maps, and DR flows.
Service Portfolio
Customer-facing service categories, deliverables, and outcomes.
SMS Handoff
Support readiness materials and service operations evidence for delivery transitions.
Operating Notes
Problem framing: keep scope, assumptions, and acceptance criteria visible before implementation starts.
Delivery alignment: maintain a clear handoff to PMO, SMS, CS, and Infra so support does not inherit unknowns.
Reusable patterns: capture good decisions as patterns so future solutions move faster and stay supportable.
