Digital FIRST

A Digital Transformation

Transformative Customer Value Through Digital Innovation

For over 100 years we have constantly strived to innovate, standardise and improve how we design and create.  Now, through an integrated digital first approach we are transforming to deliver better, smarter, faster and safer.

Accelerating Digitalisation

Over the past decade, the digital revolution has been transforming the way we work and we’re now rapidly accelerating the pace as we transition to a Digital First company. The importance of doing this is critical as the demands on our propulsion systems performance and the efficiency of delivery to our customer are increasing exponentially.

It’s a challenge we’re meeting head on by setting “Reinvent with Digital’ as one of our corporate strategic pillars.  We’re embracing our pioneering spirit, we’re innovating at every stage of the product lifecycle, and we’re equipping our world-class engineers with industry-leading digital tools.

Digital ‘O’ – A Digital First Approach

To support our transition to a Digital First company, Rolls-Royce has developed the Digital 'O'. The Digital 'O' is recognition of how physical and digital capabilities must seamlessly combine in order to deliver cutting edge value propositions for our customers.

The Digital 'O' provides our engineering specialists with a framework upon which key elements of the product lifecycle such as product design, development and test can be delivered as virtual products and sit alongside their physical counterpart helping to optimise efficiency and cost of the product. The integration of the physical and digital, and fusion of data and analytics across these four quadrants is the lever to unlocking huge value for our customers through Digital Twins at production, component, product, fleet and enterprise level.
