Digitization development project “Digital Twin for Digital Lean”
The Digital Twin for Digital Lean is a project submitted by Iskraemeco as a leading consortium partner in the tender ‘Digital Transformation of Companies’, which was announced by the Ministry of the Economy, Tourism and Sport.

About the project
In an increasingly connected world, businesses need much more than the smartest meters available in the market – they are looking for experienced, dedicated companies that can help them manage data and data streams.
With our solutions, we aim to continue to build on global sustainable policies and implement our sustainable development strategy, offering the customers flexible, across-the-board energy solutions that encompass extensive expertise on the Internet of Things (IoT) as well as digitization of data flows.
As part of the consortium’s digital transformation project, Iskraemeco will implement eight advanced and intertwined digital technologies which comprise the following:
- Robotics and process automation
- Internet of Things
- Artificial intelligence for the transformation of decision-making systems
- Blockchain technologies/distributed record technologies
- Digital twins (production and knowledge)
- Big data
- AR/VR
- 3D printing
Project objectives
- Increase efficiency, productivity, and competitiveness of large enterprises through the adoption of digital innovation, automation, robotization, and 4IR and 5IR technologies: The key innovation is the idea of monitoring LEAN parameters within the digital twin; and the project has many digital solutions dedicated to Industry 4.0.
- Increased use of advanced digital technologies in other companies: The technology consortium partners and two value chain partners (a buyer and a supplier) will increase the level of digital technologies already in use through upgrades and new digital solutions. They will also be offered a planned increase in expertise in other digital technologies, with a focus on ensuring convergence effects.
- Developing new or improving existing digital products and services: The digital transformation project will have a major impact on the quality of products.
- Changed business models, process innovation and development of new innovation platforms: For DT4DL, Iskraemeco, d.d. has developed a new digital business model of the XaaS type.

The investment is part of the actions of the Slovenian Roadmap, funded by The Recovery and Resilience Plan.
The Recovery and Resilience Plan (the RRP) is a national programme of reforms and investments to mitigate the economic and social impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in Slovenia. The planned measures will support long-term sustainable growth and address the challenges of the green and digital transition by 2026.
Iskraemeco’s most important partner, with whom they will work to establish the new business model, is ADD.
The DT4DL, Digital Twin for Digital Lean, project will support the vision, mission and objectives of the Digital Transformation Strategy by: deploying advanced technologies as part of the digital transformation; strengthening the ecosystem for a competitive economy; and contributing to an open and sustainable society as a basis for the growth of the digital economy, as 8 advanced technologies will be deployed within the consortium.
Funded by the European Union – NextGenerationEU.

By developing a digital twin, we will monitor the business impact of digital transformation based on results measured by LEAN parameters. The main benefit of the project is to improve both internal and external processes of Iskraemeco along the whole chain (supplier – Iskraemeco – customer). Together with the consortium technology partner, we will build on this in a new business model of a new XaaS (Anything as a Service) type service and create a digital twin platform, smart analytics for artificial intelligence and data vizualisation, mostly based on IoT data capture.
