Abstract

In this study, mass balances are established on the melting part of the glass furnaces at the Battice plant of 3B-the-fibreglass company. A data validation and reconciliation was then initiated and enabled the balances to be closed. This made it possible to quantify certain important flows and variables that were not/could not be measured, such as the glass flow at the melter outlet or the flow of air infiltration into the furnace.

Abstract

The Life Insurance Sector in Luxembourg is more complex than elsewhere in Europe. With different product offerings amongst countries, Luxembourg has grown to be a leading choice in terms of estate planning. Despite this, the regulations have become increasingly constraining pushing companies to find solutions to reduce their costs. As in every case of cost rationalisation, the option of outsourcing solutions has emerged.
For KPMG identifying the new tendencies of the industry and understanding how significant the impact of these will be on the market are two important aspects. This will enable them to gain insight on future developments and to anticipate the needs of their clients.
This study provides KPMG with an overview of both the supply and demand context. It also raises awareness on key points such as the valuation of unquoted assets, lack of automation, gap between supply and demand and other relevant financial aspects.
Through the project, it has become clear that BPO offers are available, but do not create enough added value for them to become a clear choice for Life Insurance companies. These businesses will actually continue to face the same problems and service providers will not be able to help them solve this. There is therefore a need for the offer to mature and evolve.
Based on this study, the next step for KPMG is clear. There is no possibility of developing a service offering, but there is instead a strong opportunity from an advisory standpoint. In fact, KPMG has a key role as an external actor to provide the right advice to the right entity. They must create and reflect upon new ways for companies to perform in the sector, in order to reduce manual processing and activities that slow down the asset management processes.

Abstract

This book reports recent advances on Process Monitoring (PM) to cope with the many challenges raised by the new production systems, sensors and “extreme data” conditions that emerged with Industry 4.0. Concepts such as digital-twins and deep learning are brought to the PM arena, pushing forward the capabilities of existing methodologies to handle more complex scenarios. The evolution of classical paradigms such as Latent Variable modeling, Six Sigma and FMEA are also covered. Applications span a wide range of domains such as microelectronics, semiconductors, chemicals, materials, agriculture, as well as the monitoring of rotating equipment, combustion systems and membrane separation processes.
