For industrial companies
Clarify your automation project before you ask for a quote
RoboConnect helps you structure the need, requirements and project context before you commit time and money to a solution.
Start with the information you have. You can refine the project as you go.
A good automation project starts before the quote
Many companies know what they want to improve, but enter supplier dialogue without a sufficiently structured basis for evaluating solutions, risk and cost.
- 01
Unclear or incomplete project basis
What should be automated, why now, and which requirements matter?
- 02
Difficult supplier selection
Which suppliers have experience with the right process, variation and production environment?
- 03
Harder to compare proposals
Different assumptions and scopes make solutions, costs and risks difficult to compare.
Customer journey
From automation need to supplier dialogue
- 1
Describe your need
Tell RoboConnect about the process, objective, current situation and constraints.
- 2
Clarify the project
Structure requirements, important assumptions, risks and missing information.
- 3
Build the project basis
Turn the information into a clearer basis for evaluation, investment decisions and supplier dialogue.
- 4
Find relevant actors
Identify relevant system integrators, technology suppliers or R&D actors for the project.
Relevant actor matching
- 5
Move into supplier dialogue
Choose who you want to engage with and continue toward solution proposals and quotes.
What you get before supplier dialogue
- A clearer project scope
- What should be solved, what matters most and where the main constraints are.
- A structured project basis
- Information organised so it can be understood and evaluated by relevant actors.
- Better visibility into uncertainty and risk
- Important assumptions, missing information and questions become visible before solution work begins.
- Relevant actors to move forward with
- A route to system integrators, suppliers or R&D actors relevant to the project.
Project readiness
Ready for supplier dialogue
RoboConnect helps you build a more complete and structured project basis before opening technical dialogue with suppliers.
When is RoboConnect useful?
RoboConnect is designed for the early phase of automation projects, before significant time is committed to solution design, supplier selection or investment.
- You have identified a process or improvement opportunity but are not sure how to structure the project.
- You want to evaluate automation before committing to a supplier.
- You need a better basis for comparing possible approaches and costs.
- You want help finding relevant automation partners.
- Your production environment involves variation, customisation or several technical disciplines.
Particularly relevant for complex production environments
Robotic welding
For production with demands on capacity, precision and consistent quality.
Robotic packing and palletising
For repetitive end-of-line processes that need flow, pace and stability.
Automated assembly and handling
For production with fixtures, variation and demands on precise handling.
Automated inspection and quality control
For processes where vision and control can improve quality and traceability.
Relevant actors
When the project is ready, find the right actors
You do not need to know the right supplier before you start. Once the project is sufficiently clarified, RoboConnect can help identify relevant system integrators, technology suppliers and R&D actors based on the project’s needs.
Relevant experience
Match against process, technology and project requirements.
Better-prepared dialogue
Actors receive a clearer basis before technical discussions begin.
You stay in control
You decide which actors you want to engage with.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to know which automation solution I want?
No. RoboConnect starts with the process, need and business objective rather than a predefined solution. The purpose is to clarify what the project needs to achieve before you commit to a specific technology or supplier.
How much information do I need before I start?
You can start with the information you already have. RoboConnect helps structure what is known, identify important gaps and clarify what should be investigated further before supplier dialogue.
What do I get from the clarification process?
You get a more structured project basis describing the need, relevant requirements, constraints, assumptions and important uncertainties. The aim is to create a stronger basis for internal decisions and dialogue with potential suppliers.
How does RoboConnect help me find relevant suppliers or integrators?
Once the project is sufficiently clarified, RoboConnect can help identify system integrators, technology suppliers or R&D actors whose capabilities are relevant to the project. You remain in control of which actors you want to engage with.
Do I have to choose a supplier through RoboConnect?
No. RoboConnect helps you clarify the project and can connect you with relevant actors, but you decide how to proceed and who you want to enter into dialogue with.
What happens to the information I share?
It is used to assess your project and may be presented to relevant actors in anonymised form. Your company name, contact person and direct contact details are not shared without your separate approval. A project becomes visible to actors only after RoboConnect has reviewed and published it. Using anonymised information to improve RoboConnect itself is a separate, optional consent that does not affect how your project is handled.
