Where finances & IoT data intersect.

DDX meets Financing institutes

Lessors and Insurers, as our partners, can now explore new dynamic financing offerings for production machines.

We enable you to offer your customers a fully automated, flexible leasing or insurance package that is enabled with real-time performance and updated with actual risk-relevant information.

We connect you with machine builders and machine users looking for innovative approaches for leasing other financial services.

Your role in the ecosystem

Financial institutes are the game changers for new business models in this data-driven ecosystem. And, DDX fuels your journey towards data-enabled innovations.

We generate more value for your contract information of financing products by enhancing it with the real-time usage of the machine.
Broaden your insights into the machine with full transparency on the risks, and the residual value of the machine.
Monitor, assess the status, and access risk-relevant information of your contracts! All in a single dashboard.

01 / Dynamic financing – CapEx becomes OpEx

The market is leaning towards dynamic pay-per-use business models. Financing institutes need insights into machines leased. And your customers, like machine users, demand alternative finance products moving away from fixed monthly rates. With data-driven financing, we can address both!

02/ Personalized contract setup

Contracts can include parameters like maintenance intervals, runtime, piece counts, and degree of wear. Based on historical data of the machine and planned usage of the machine, personalized contracts can be generated.

03/ Dynamic insurance

In addition, insurance companies can bundle it with usage-based insurance. Risk calculation becomes easier with all relevant data from the machine. This supports personalized premiums and improved claim handling.

04/ Machine status report

Once the contract is up and running, you can continuously monitor and assess the machine status. The IoT data from machines are easily accessible in the cloud, avoiding on-site visits or exhausting email exchanges. Data is then transformed into contract-relevant KPIs. To top it, information can seamlessly be integrated into other systems through our APIs.

05/ Damage reporting

But what happens when the machine stops? As everyone benefits if the production count increases, downtime should be reduced and damages should be resolved quickly. Smart claim management makes damage reporting a one-click activity. All required data about the contract, the machine, and potential issues will be made available for relevant stakeholders to get the machine back on track as soon as possible.

06/ Residual value calculation

Residual value calculation gets new oomph with data generated through the period of leasing. Along with all historical methods adding IoT data strengthens accuracy of the residual value calculation. This enables better valuation for the secondary market.

Frequently asked questions

What does IoT mean?

IoT or long Internet of Things means exactly what it is saying. That “things”, which were produced without any connection can now be integrated into an online ecosystem. This allows access to data that was stored only locally before. A typical example is your doorbell. Connected to the internet, it can inform you at any time if the package you’ve been waiting for has already arrived and where the postman can drop it off safely.

Can I connect my finance systems?

100% yes! We designed our application to communicate with your individual finance system in accordance with your guidelines and standards. Whether it sends us data about contracts, finance products, or insurance, we can handle it and adjust it to a seamless data flow between the machine and your tool.

Why should I trust your application?

Trustworthiness is also a big thing for us! We only use data with a good purpose and we expect the same from our ecosystem partners. But for sure, to give you more than just nice words about trust, we can promise you something:

We only use the data that you offer for your contract management
We never store it.
Siemens keeps the highest standards of cybersecurity.

We actually have a whole portfolio element about it, but in Data Driven X it is all about you!
