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) You can find more information about the project and the value it has already created in the presentation here. | |

First, let´s start with the Problem space
1.1. Reason
* Why is this initiative proposed today?
| 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?
| 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?
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
1.9. Up to investment
Estimated Delivery phase start date*
| Estimated Delivered end Quarter* Q4 2023 |
What is the coherent money to commit on the initiative?*
| 2023 (in K€)* | 2024 (in K€)* | 2025 (in K€) | |
|---|---|---|---|
Estimated size of investment (high level) | 5.5 | 3 |
What is the coherent run and build commit on the initiative?
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?
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?
|
If the initiative will be done in Agile methodology, please contact during the strategize phase Nicolas LOVAGNINI
Phase 2: Strategize
Do
- Identify portfolio epics and epics within each portfolio epics
- Create a document / slide / spreadsheet to build your epics and put a link in the bief
- Estimate experts and budget by portfolio epics or by increment
- Show SMART KPI (Specific, Measureable, Archievable, Relevant, and Time-Bound)
- Evaluate the impact on Solvay One Planet objectives
Don´t
- Identify squad resources (naming)
- Write user stories
Now, we can move on to the Solution space
2.0 Scope / Deliverables
What is the scope (technical, functional & organizational) / deliverables foreseen?

Identify security needs (Confidentiality, Integrity, Availability) and define security measures to be implemented by the initiative team
| Complete“SIP Support tool” No changes from the MVP. A particular study with the cybersecurity team will be conducted just to evaluate if an ITAR Star Tek could be done and what it would take. There is a cybersecurity member that is part of the Star Tek core team. | |
Support for budget estimation (via the Workload & Cost), Financial evaluation (Total Cost of Ownership over 10Y), saving validation
| W&C: to be filled in to Accolade in preparation phase TCO over 10Y: | |
| Optional | ||
If any relation needed with a supplier
| For SeeQ, there is a contract negotiation ongoing | |
If it concerns a key supplier, a sourcing strategy has to be defined
| ||
If conformity by design is required
| GMP (pharma), ISO | |
If Data Governance is required: identify the business objects
| Data Governance Strategise for Initiative Briefs There is a team member from the Data Governance team that is part of the Star Tek team | |
2.2. Users needs
What do users dislike about the current solution?
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 tools or features do your users wish to have?
What value will it add to the user´s lives?
What alternative do we have?
| There is no current alternative |

2.3. Solvay One Planet Objectives
What is the qualitative assessment of Hardware/ Data processing/ Project’s contribution to Solvay One Planet?
- 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? |
