The world is going digital - this applies to our private lives as well as to large parts of our work. In the process industries, the focus is often on end-to-end digital engineering, the analysis of big data, or the utilization of legacy data. But in what way can digitalization change daily work routines and increase work efficiency? A practical example is provided by the specialty chemicals company Lanxess, which has abandoned the classic clipboard, thus demonstrating very clearly what digitalization actually means and what benefits it offers.
