"Integration is just the beginning. What comes next makes the difference!"

The compacer International Customer & Partner Event 2025 in Frankfurt was a resounding success! Under the motto, ‘Integration is just the beginning. What comes next makes the difference!’, we discussed the next stage of digital transformation with our customers and partners: AI-driven process automation.

We have summarised the most important insights and key messages from the high-calibre keynotes and practical panels for you here.

1. The next step: AI-driven transformation

(Lumir Boureanu, compacer)

Pure data integration is now the standard, no longer a competitive advantage. The future belongs to companies that manage their processes intelligently.

Key message: Integration is just the beginning. True added value comes from autonomous, AI-driven processes that are orchestrated within your system landscape. compacer AI agents are designed as an intelligent ecosystem to monitor workflows and make autonomous decisions.

Takeaway: True digital excellence is a continuous journey centred on hybrid AI approaches and the orchestration of AI applications.

2. AI: Why it fails in management (but not in the laboratory)

(Andreas Scheifele, Comdeo GmbH & Co. KG)

Despite widespread adoption, many AI initiatives fail to deliver substantial added value. Why is that? The answer may come as a surprise:

  • Key message: The real bottleneck for successful AI adoption is not the technology, but leadership. Many executives remain in their comfort zone for fear of complexity.
  • Takeaway: The choice is clear: act now or risk irrelevance. Regulation should not serve as an excuse for inaction, but as a basis for building competitive and sustainable AI solutions.

3. Digitalisation in ports: edbic in action

(Torsten Neubert, HPC Hamburg Port Consulting GmbH)

In ports, simply handling cargo volumes is no longer enough today: networking all stakeholders and systems is essential in order to offer value-added services, reduce costly downtime and thus withstand competitive pressure.

  • Key message: With the help of edbic, modern ports are relying on a data lakehouse structure to make all data – including unstructured data – usable for AI and BI analyses.

  • Takeaway: To significantly increase transparency and efficiency, Digital Twins must be fed with real-time data. This is the crucial step towards precise control of all operational processes.

4. 100% digitisation: smart workflows through PDF transformation

(Julian Rath, Semadox & Marie-Josée Ruhm, compacer)

Many companies still struggle with manual data entry because critical documents such as orders or shipping notifications are exchanged as PDFs instead of via EDI.

Key message: By combining Semadox PDF capture and edbic integration, these semi-structured documents can be converted into business intelligence.

Takeaway: PDF transformation enables 100 % digitisation of workflows, eliminates manual data entry and can deliver a fast ROI (often within a few weeks).
