This is an extension of initiative 11764 Star Tek MVP. Following the success of the MVP, this initiative aims to deploy the use cases from the MVP that have already proven their worth to all Star Factory sites to be deployed in 2023. In parallel, we intend to add to the service offer by develloping new use cases. These use cases will be brought by Business during the Star Factory deployment and respective roadmaps established.

This accelerates data intensive projects, optimizes and accelerates deployment of Digital applications such as Eschbach, SeeQ, PI Vision, creating value from day 1. This standardization also contributes to DT providing better service. All applications connected to Star Tek are standard approved applications and all use-cases are easily reproduced in other sites thanks to the standardization.

This initiative is closely linked to Star Factory program and takes into account, on its roadmap, other initiatives such as IT infrastructure modernization, Eschbach roll-out, PI Vision (replacing end of life product Process Book) roll-out, MES upgrade, in order to optimize deployment costs and resources from the DT side, as well as from the sites.

Estimated budget - 5.5 million euros (includes 43 sites architecture deployment, SeeQ licensing costs for new sites, roll-out of existing use-cases, development of new use cases, study for new data sources to be included and study for the possibility of having a star tek ITAR version)

Roadmap & Key objectives

Roadmap

The roadmap will follow Star Factory's roadmap.

2023 Digital Technology Key objective

Protect & Enhance the Business - deliver digital roadmap

Priority

P1

Phase 1: Envision - High level initiatives


Understand: Why is this initiative proposed? What are the consequences if not done? What are the new capabilities expected?

  • Create Envision brief if the initiative is part of the validated roadmap

  • Highlight roadmap value
  • Request a budget for Strategize if you need one
  • Security scoring 
  • RADAR/SENTRI
  • Request platform resources if the business capability is already identified and clear
  • Write portfolio epics, epics and user stories
  • Identify squad resources

First, let´s start with the Problem space

1.1. Reason

* Why is this initiative proposed today?

Explain what are the motivations and the expected objective behind this initiative/ what are the consequences if not done?

The MVP was a success, not only in its value creation for Business but also for the possibilities it opens to accelerate data intensive projects and applications deployments. Star Tek is one of the enablers for Star Factory. 

1.2. Benefits

What are the new capabilities expected?



What will it replace? Is it a new solution or an existing one?


1.3. Target users

Who are the future users?

Identify the future users (BU, sites...) and population concerned

All group sites


What is the number of users impacted?



What about the Business Needs?

1.4. Value proposition

What is the value of the initiative?

Financial Business expectation (ROI, benefits, savings,...) + Qualitative Business expectation (business value, market fit, visibility,...)


1.5. Business goals

How does the product / deliverable align with the business goals?


1.6. Challenges

Are there any challenges in developing the product?


1.7. Business metrics

How will we measure success?


1.8. Cybersecurity

Please duplicate this template in this folder. Then, for the envision phase, answer to the 7 high-level questions in the "Security Scoring" sheet. These questions will help the SIP team to determine the level of cybersecurity & compliance support you will need. Please contact the team by email: @SIP_team@solvay.com

If not able to answer yet, explain it at the Envision gate and it will be the DTLT to decide if green light or not considering with the high level of uncertainty 


1.9. Up to investment


What is the coherent time to commit on the initiative?*

What is the coherent run and build commit on the initiative?

Only run cost impact - TCO over 10Y will be finalized during the strategize phase

Estimated run costs (estimation high level) - on 10Y (if already known)


Type of savings expected /year for DT (Ex: Contracts, FTE, ...)  

1.10. Resources

What skills and talents do we need? 

Here kind of skills required in order to start to fill the Capacity Planning.  If name already available please write the name

CLERC, Romain Bruyere, Florent David GENET Fadi BECHARA Thierno Gueye Natalie Wittick @sebastien ladouce @michele Albiccochi @michael Boucherat 


1.11. Methodology to apply (refer for Accolade)

Do you think if your initiative is compatible with a waterfall approachor with an agile approach?

  • Agile model
  • Waterfall model
  • I do not know at this stage

If the initiative will be done in Agile methodology, please contact during the strategize phase Nicolas LOVAGNINI

Phase 2: Strategize


Understand: How this bring value? Which pain points will it removes? Will it be delivered in Agile or Waterfall?

  • Identify portfolio epics and epics within each portfolio epics

2.2. Users needs

Applicable when a new solution is developed

Currently there was no communication between the different systems (labware, DCS, SAP, etc) making it very difficult to have all the information in one place, in a reliable way, to make data-driven decisions

What value will it add to the user´s lives?



What alternative do we have?

There is no current alternative

- Is the business ambition you will support improving or not sustainability?

- Will you increase or decrease the number of hardware we need to operate? How much ?

- Will you generate or transfer an important amount of data, especially videos? How much?
