Our Success Story: A Strong R&D Partnership with Ascenix

The future of smart manufacturing is shaped by strong collaborations that drive innovation. In this edition of OzUBEX Success Stories, we highlight an R&D partnership carried out under the TÜBİTAK 1711 Program.

As part of a joint project by Özyeğin University, BEKO, and Ascenix, Ascenix’s AI-powered plastic injection quality control system was validated using OzUBEX’s advanced testing infrastructure. More than a conventional service relationship, this project represents a collaborative R&D effort to bring innovative technologies into industrial practice.

The project contributes to Türkiye’s AI ecosystem and supports energy efficiency through the testing and validation activities carried out at our center. We thank Ascenix for this valuable collaboration.

Achieving sustainable competitive advantage in the industry is possible not only through technological investments but also by ensuring these investments are supported by proper analysis, planning, and implementation processes. With the OzUBEX Digital Maturity Analysis (DMA) tool we’ve developed for this purpose, we assess businesses’ current status using a holistic approach.

What’s more, this service is offered completely free of charge.

DMA analyzes your business’s level of digitalization not only through technical infrastructure but also through organizational structure, process management, and strategic capabilities—providing a multidimensional assessment.

🔹 Your organizational structure and decision-making mechanisms
🔹 Your approach to sustainability, energy efficiency, and green transformation
🔹 Your R&D, innovation, and entrepreneurship capabilities
🔹 The level of integration and optimization of your business processes

are analyzed using a detailed set of questions and a benchmarking strategy.

📊 At the conclusion of the assessment process:

🔹 A digital maturity score specific to your business is generated
🔹 Your strengths and areas for improvement are clearly identified
🔹 Short-, medium-, and long-term transformation priorities are determined
🔹 An actionable and measurable digital transformation roadmap is presented

detaylı soru seti ve benchmark stratejisi ile analiz edilir.

📊 Gerçekleştirilen değerlendirme süreci sonunda:

🔹 İşletmenize özel dijital olgunluk skoru oluşturulur
🔹 Güçlü yönleriniz ve gelişime açık alanlar net bir şekilde ortaya konur
🔹 Kısa, orta ve uzun vadeli dönüşüm öncelikleri belirlenir

Süreç, yatırım planlarınıza uygun şekilde şekillendirilerek hibe ve teşvik mekanizmalarıyla desteklenebilecek proje önerilerinin belirlenmesine katkı sağlar.

📌 Siz de işletmenizin mevcut dijital olgunluk seviyesini objektif bir şekilde değerlendirmek, dönüşüm sürecinizi stratejik bir bakış açısıyla yönetmek ve yatırım planlarınızı hibe ve teşvik fırsatları doğrultusunda şekillendirmek için OzUBEX ile iletişime geçebilirsiniz.
