Na co dzień pomagam producentom przechodzić przez proces transformacji cyfrowej, dzięki czemu zwiększają oni bezpieczeństwo swoich produktów, podnoszą efektywność operacyjną parków maszynowych i lepiej wykorzystują potencjał pracowniczy.

Wieloletnie doświadczenie, studia na Wydziale Automatyki, Elektroniki i Informatyki (AEI) Politechniki Śląskiej i ciągła ciekawość skierowały mnie na tory edukacji. Jako członek globalnej organizacji – Forbes Technology Council – mam dostęp do aktualnych badań i wiedzy międzynarodowych specjalistów z branży. Aktywnie dzielę się także swoimi spostrzeżeniami na łamach Forbes.com.

Jako mentor fundacji Youth Business Poland staram się natomiast wspierać początkujących przedsiębiorców, a jako autor książki „15 kroków do zakupu systemu informatycznego” – ułatwiać zakładom produkcyjnym proces zakupu rozwiązań informatycznych.

Ponadto prowadzę kanał YouTube Digitalizuj.pl oraz blog AdrianStelmach.com, na których poruszam między innymi takie tematy, jak:

▪️ Zarządzanie zmianą technologiczną w organizacji.

▪️ Proces zakupu nowych technologii w zakładzie produkcyjnym.

▪️ Pokonywanie wyzwań w projektach cyfryzacji.

▪️ Rozwój, struktura i kondycja polskiego przemysłu.

▪️ Znaczenie przemysłu dla gospodarki i rola ESG w kreowaniu misji organizacji.

▪️ Wpływ nowych technologii (w tym AI) na zatrudnienie.

Jestem przekonany, że przyszłość przemysłu produkcyjnego leży w pełnej digitalizacji, przejrzystości procesów i zrównoważonym rozwoju. Dlatego jako założyciel i CEO explitia rozwijam oprogramowanie wspierające zakłady produkcyjne m.in. w: ▪️ Zmniejszaniu kosztów operacyjnych. ▪️ Optymalizacji pracy. ▪️ Wzmocnieniu bezpieczeństwa. ▪️ Poprawie jakości produkcji. W pracy zwracam uwagę m.in. na rozwiązania wspierające transparentność produktu. Dzięki czemu producenci mogą zarządzać parkiem maszynowym w sposób elastyczny i bardziej odporny na zmiany oraz oferować lepsze i tańsze wyroby.

Automatyzacja przepływu danych jest natomiast fundamentem do wdrożenia wielu nowoczesnych rozwiązań technologicznych. Sprawia również, że ludzie mogą koncentrować się na bardziej wartościowych działaniach i maksymalnie wykorzystać swój potencjał. Prowadzę klientów przez proces transformacji cyfrowej, oferując: doradztwo, szkolenia, pomoc w usprawnieniu procesów biznesowych, integrację danych z urządzeń oraz personalizację rozwiązań informatycznych.
