Subsidiary Idlegcy NV launches app to make GDPR customer-oriented

idmanager signin screenIdlegcy NV is a subsidiary of Participium. Idlegcy wants to help companies to handle their customers and business relations data with respect. The company has now developed a web application to help companies manage GDPR rights: idmanager. With idmanager, anyone can manage GDPR rights centrally, instead of approaching each organization individually. The digital identity is therefore much easier to manage.

Tomorrow, 25th of May is the GDPR deadline. Dozens of companies and organizations have prepared themselves to be compliant and to protect themselves against potential claims. From tomorrow any individual can contact any company to review their data, change them or have them deleted.

That means that you have to contact all those organizations one by one… very cumbersome indeed. That is where idmanager comes in. On one overview page, idmanager shows the organizations that keep track of your data. It takes merely two clicks to clear them. The app allows you to contact the data manager in any of these companies.

The application is free for all people who want to manage their data and privacy. Companies and organizations that pay the bill of idmanager, when they connect idmanager with their IT system.

Forte to reduce the threshold for established I3.0 businesses to adopt new I4.0 concepts

Forte is one of the investments of Participium. Forte is the customer intimacy specialist among the management advisory companies for technical and production industries. They are ahead in helping established companies embrace Industry 4.0. But, they also discovered many companies still struggle with new 4.0 concepts, such as digitization, servitization, customer value management, outcome-based business models.

In order for established companies to get a head-start and take decisions more thoroughly, Forte is providing a half day sounding board named “I4.0 Doctor”. Typically, one or two decision takers get a half day of feedback on their ideas. During that half day, the sounding board will help them better understand the reasons why for taking certain I4.0 decisions – or not.

More info via press release (nl) that will be spread later this week. Or get in touch with Forte via jan.ghys@forte.eu or jan.lagast@forte.eu.

Predicting the success of self-steering

Prof. Jan De Visch has developed a model and a survey questionnaire to estimate the chances for success of the introduction of self-steering.

“If too many parameters are counter-indicative, it is better to focus on some minor improvements first, before starting the real job of changing towards a form of self-steering”.

His presentation of March 22 contains the ten questions as well as a short summary for each of the questions.
