Frequently asked questions:
What is the importance of Low-Code in the maritime manufacturing industry?
Low-Code platforms are crucial in the maritime manufacturing industry because of their ability to accelerate software development, reduce costs and improve collaboration between technical and non-technical teams. They offer flexibility, better integration and customized solutions, allowing companies to accelerate their digital transformation and remain competitive. This leads to faster implementation of innovations and more efficient application maintenance.
What specific challenges can Low-Code help solve in the maritime sector?
Low-Code can reduce the complexity of production lines, improve quality control, and facilitate the integration of supply chains. It accelerates innovation and reduces reliance on scarce IT resources, allowing companies to respond faster to change.
How does Low-Code ensure that maritime companies remain competitive in a rapidly changing market?
Low-Code enables maritime companies to remain competitive in a rapidly changing market by significantly accelerating application development and deployment. This shortens time-to-market, allowing companies to innovate faster and bring new solutions to market faster. This speed enables maritime companies to respond flexibly to changing market conditions and customer needs, thereby maintaining a competitive advantage.
Is Low-Code the solution to achieve Smart Maritime's goals?
Yes, Low-Code supports the goals of Smart Maritime by enabling fast and cost-effective application development. It easily integrates with existing systems, facilitating real-time data analysis and automated decision making.

How do you link OT and IT?
OT (Operational Technology) and IT (Information Technology) can be linked through the use of IoT (Internet of Things) and integration platforms such as Low-Code solutions. IoT devices collect and transmit data from operational systems to IT systems, where this data can be analyzed and used for real-time monitoring and decision-making. A Low-Code platform can serve as a bridge between OT and IT, bringing together data from both domains into one clear and accessible system.
What steps is Smart Maritime taking to promote climate adaptation and innovation?
Smart Maritime promotes climate adaptation and innovation by:
- Digitization: Implementation of advanced digital solutions such as low-code platforms for more efficient processes and faster innovation.
- Climate Adaptation: Development of (unmanned) ships and systems adapted to changing climate conditions.
- Integration: Seamless integration of supply chains for holistic understanding and reduced complexity.
- Real-time monitoring: Using sensors and IoT for real-time data analysis and more informed decisions.
- Iterative development: Continuous improvement and adjustment based on customer feedback.
- Efficiency: Modernization of obsolete systems, error reduction and increased efficiency through central data storage and user-friendly interfaces.
