The power of integration – Bringing SE, AM, and AIS together

Picture a world where your engineering, asset management, and investment teams don’t just coexist, they collaborate, sharing insights and data to create a business that’s agile, innovative, and resilient. This is what happens when Systems Engineering (SE), Asset Management (AM), and Asset Investment Strategy (AIS) are fully integrated.

Unlocking value with a unified approach

Historically, SE, AM, and AIS functioned as separate disciplines, each with its own goals, tools, and challenges. But integrating these domains leads to transformative benefits:

  • Seamless Feedback Loops: Engineers design with lifecycle data in mind, while asset managers provide real-world performance insights, continuously improving designs and processes.
  • Data-Driven Decisions: Integrated data streams drive smarter investments, optimized maintenance, and faster innovation.
  • Lifecycle Optimization: Products and assets are conceived, managed, and renewed with a full understanding of costs, risks, and opportunities across their entire lifespan.

Tangible business benefits

Bringing together SE, AM, and AIS enables organizations to:

  • Reduce total cost of ownership through smarter, lifecycle-focused decisions.
  • Increase reliability and performance of assets.
  • Respond faster to market or regulatory changes thanks to unified processes and data.

Ultimately, integration breaks down silos, leading to a culture of collaboration, transparency, and continuous improvement.

Why your organization needs this integration

In an era of rapid technological change and rising complexity, organizations that integrate SE, AM, and AIS are more resilient, innovative, and positioned for long-term success. If you want to anticipate challenges, outpace competitors, and deliver real value to your stakeholders, this is the way forward.

Free webinar Platform-oriented developmentMany high-tech companies face a number of challenges in developing new products. To help companies meet these challenges, Bits&Chips, together with Synergio and VDL-ETG, is organizing the webinar “From project to product to platform-oriented development” on Thursday, April 6. In this webinar, we explain why VDL-ETG, among others, is working with Synergio to address this challenge. And we demonstrate how Synergio can help high-tech companies grow from a project-oriented development approach to a platform-oriented development approach with TopTeam.

We zoom in on common challenges:

  • Shorten time-to-market: exploit opportunities when they arise.
  • Accelerate innovation: maintain your competitive advantage.
  • Continuous learning and improvement: make sure your organization grows from a knowledge perspective.
  • Manage complexity: avoid repair work and claims.

We look at a number of initiatives in which high-tech companies are investing to address challenges in product development:

  • Systems Engineering
  • Agile Product Development
  • From project to product to platform
  • Technical leadership
  • Product development Flow
  • Knowledge center for product development

We explain how organizations:

  • Be able to create a platform architecture that can be used for many different products.
  • Be able to manage different product configurations.
  • Be able to define and manage product variants.

Synergio and VDL-ETG

 

What were the elements that appealed to you specifically at Synergio?

Lizet: In the organization I was in, there was a lot of chaos in the way the innovation processes were set up. This led to frustration for many people. For me, what’s important is having fun with your team while accomplishing something together. Doing something together that you are proud of without too much frustration.

Mike, Arno and Edwin indicated that this is precisely what Synergio emphasizes in their services. In complex, innovative environments, ensuring that people are able to do what they do best. This angle really appealed to me!

Is there much focus on personal development within Synergio?

Esmée: Yes absolutely! We are all equal. Everyone is listened to and there is a lot of space for you as a person. With us, the person is central so that goes beyond just the work context. A great example is our Golden Brick – You rock! This brick is passed every two months by the “winner” to the person who has learned the most. This could be because you did something outside your comfort zone, or it could be when you made a mistake and learned from it.

Lizet: Our motto here is a quote from Mandela: ‘ never lose, I either win or learn!‘ Learning is done in so many ways. You don’t just do that by taking training courses. Indeed, it is especially your colleagues and friends who mirror you from time to time that you can learn a lot from. To mirror each other, this does require an open and trusting team. I think we have this at Synergio. Learning is something we do together here. We also share our course and personal challenges so that everyone knows and can do their part.

Esmee: We use 3 focus areas here: Personal development, professional knowledge and customer knowledge. On all three topics we spar with each other. In addition, everyone has a personal development budget. How you deploy this is up to you. This does require that you have this clear for yourself and take charge of your own development. That mindset is important to us at Synergio.

How do you see that development reflected in your assignments?

Lizet: I started as a scrum master. Then I got the opportunity to work as an Agile Coach. I was on an assignment with Edwin. That was a huge learning curve for me. You get immediate feedback on what you do well and could possibly do differently. Because you sit with the client together, this gives room to experiment outside your comfort zone. If I wanted to do something that might not be such a good idea I got immediate feedback from Edwin. That made for a very safe and experimental learning experience. In addition, we are also with large and interesting clients so that makes the variety and opportunities in which you want to develop diverse.

What appeals to you about the assignments Synergio does?

Esmee: I like puzzles; solving problems. Find where the common thread is and discover the logic. You also need to be able to change gears quickly. A client expects you to be able to jump in quickly and act proactively. As you have done more assignments you get better at this as well. You start to see through the patterns faster and faster.

What do you think are important characteristics of someone to do this work?

Esmee: You have to be curious, dare to ask questions and be able to make contacts quickly. And what we think is really very important is that you listen to the people at the client. Not already having a plan in your head but first listening, then “puzzling” and then coming up with a plan together.

Why would people want to work at Synergio?

Lizet: We have a strong and enjoyable team, many opportunities and space to develop yourself, active participation in the development of the organization and of course the interesting assignments. We are here in a beautiful building where there are more businesses. Last someone came up to us and said, “It’s always such a casual and pleasant atmosphere with you guys. There is a lot of laughter”. This gives a nice picture of the atmosphere at Synergio.

Do you get energy from these kinds of questions? Then continue reading…

What does your work look like?

You are active at different clients and you work together with your colleagues on various problems. You are involved in a customer process at an early stage to incorporate your ideas into the solution we want to offer the customer. A selection of your work:

  • Understand what we can best help the customer with. What is the core of their puzzle and what possible solutions can we offer?
  • Thinking, feeling and acting to guide or initiate change processes.
  • ‘Out of the box’ and coming up with creative solutions – think of all kinds of interventions, workshops and training courses.
  • Coaching customers to guide them in a new role or with a new working method.

And how do you do this? You decide that yourself together with the customer, you are responsible for organizing in your day. So whether you start at 8 a.m. or 10 a.m., whether you work in the office, at the client or at home, it’s all up to you.

Who are we looking for?

We are looking for people who:

  • keep us sharp and challenge us to keep improving
  • like to lead groups during a transition period
  • love freedom and work with responsibility for results
  • have an affinity with product development and disciplines such as requirements engineering, business analysis, (lean) systems engineering and scaled agile working methods.

You have experience with:

  • Master or Bachelor degree and working level, technical study is an advantage
  • experience (5-10 years) with system engineering and/or business analysis
  • experience (5-10 years) with consultancy and change processes
  • knowlegde of methods such as system engineering, lean, agile and rapid learning cycles
  • experience with developmet of technologic products in a complex environment
  • good communication skills
  • Dutch and English communication skills

What can you expect from us?

We are a small and close-knit team. Getting pleasure and energy from your work is high on our agenda. We also show this in the survey that we recently had. Themes such as trust, happiness, meaning and inclusion all scored higher than an 8! A result of which we are of course proud. Being proud of what you do is also our motivation, both with our customers and at home.

In addition to a competitive salary that matches your experience, we think it is important that our people continue to learn and are professional. So we facilitate to let you learn and develop further in the profession. We offer you the opportunity to become an expert in our areas of expertise such as the Scaled Agile Framework (SAFe), Lean Systems Engineering, Rapid Learning Cycles (RLC), Change Management and Portfolio Management.

We believe in development by connecting theory to practice as much and as quickly as possible. You will receive a coach, a personal training budget and we find very nice and inspiring colleagues… and challenging assignments.
