Ich hatte die Ehre, den Podcast bei Wolfgang zu Hause aufzunehmen – und mit ihm nicht nur über die von Synaos entwickelte Intralogistics Management Platform zu sprechen. Diese Plattform nutzt Künstliche Intelligenz, um das volle Potenzial von Roboter-, FTS- und Staplerflotten auszuschöpfen und effizient zu steuern. Darüber hinaus haben wir auch einen Blick in die Zukunft der Automatisierung geworfen: Wo steht die Industrie heute? Wie beginnt der Markt, das Potenzial der VDA-5050-Schnittstelle zu erkennen? Und welche führende Rolle nimmt Deutschland dabei ein? Natürlich ging es auch um die Auswirkungen auf die Menschen in der Intralogistik – und welche Rolle ihnen künftig zukommen wird. Jetzt aber genug von mir – lasst euch von der Leidenschaft anstecken, die Wolfgang im Gespräch versprüht, und genießt das Interview!

At the heart of The Prophets' vision are “The 24 Essential Supply Chain Processes.” What are they? Find out, and see the future yourself. Click here What does quality really mean in today's automotive world—when the supply chain is shifting, the tech is evolving daily, and the pressure to get it right has never been higher?Scott Trantham is here to answer that. As General Motors' Manager of Supply Quality and Chair of the AIAG Quality Steering Committee, he's helping shape the systems that will define automotive quality—not just today, but for the road ahead.Scott explains how the rise of EVs, autonomy, and complex supply chains puts pressure on traditional systems. Add in growing regulatory pressure and higher consumer expectations, and it's no longer just about making good parts—it's about meeting more demanding standards across a global network.The committee's response? Updating the core tools—SPC, APQP, Control Plan, and more—while aligning with the VDA to create unified global standards.Automation in quality management systems came up as a key point. While standards like IATF 16949 may not require it, Scott outlines clear benefits: better accuracy, visibility, faster problem resolution, and real-time tracking. All strong reasons for suppliers to move away from spreadsheets and manual processes—not because the standard says so, but because it's simply better business.With more than 40 years in the industry, Scott reflects on what keeps him committed: solving problems, launching successful products, and helping shape the future through his work with AIAG.His message to today's quality professionals? Live quality daily, make decisions based on facts and data, and if you get the chance to volunteer on an industry project—take it. You're not just helping your company. You're helping shape the future of the industry.Themes discussed in this episode:How EVs, AVs, and sustainability are changing quality expectations in automotiveWhy updating core tools like APQP and SPC is critical for modern manufacturingThe role of global collaboration in standardizing quality processes across regionsThe need to break down silos between supply chain, IT, and quality teamsHow automation improves quality systems beyond what manual processes can deliverThe challenge of keeping up with evolving ESG and regulatory requirementsThe need to attract and mentor the next generation of quality professionalsWhy mentoring and volunteering are key to sustaining industry-wide quality standardsFeatured on this episode:Name: Scott TranthamTitle: Manager of Supplier Quality and Development at General Motors, and Chair of the AIAG's Quality Steering CommitteeAbout: Scott is the Manager of Global SQ Operations, IT Systems, Training, and Data Analytics at General Motors and has over 40 years of experience in the automotive industry.

Vom liebsten Kind zum Problem: Die deutsche Autoindustrie kämpft seit Jahren mit der Transformation, mit aufstrebenden chinesischen Herstellern, mit Verbrennerverboten und jetzt auch noch mit Trumps geplanten Autozöllen. Wir sprechen mit Hildegard Müller, der Präsidentin des VDA, und mit Frank-Holger Appel, dem Ressortleiter Technik & Motor in der F.A.Z.

Dunkle Wolken über der Autoindustrie drücken nicht nur auf die Stimmung und die Gewinnmargen der Unternehmen, auch das Schreckgespenst Stellenabbau verbreitet vermehrt Angst und Schrecken in der Branche. Die Beschäftigung hierzulande befindet sich wegen des Strukturwandels in der Autoindustrie ohnehin auf dem absteigenden Ast und ein Ende ist nicht in Sicht. Doch bei einer Talfahrt gibt es irgendwann auch wieder einen neuen Berg zu erklimmen.

Following the Federal Court's significant judgment in ASIC v Noumi Ltd in 2024, the Full Court has now made orders allowing the appeals and finding that Noumi did not waive privilege in the PwC report by disclosing it to ASIC under a voluntary disclosure agreement. While the Full Court's decision confirms that VDA arrangements can be an effective way to maintain legal professional privilege, Bryony Adams, Andrew Eastwood and Maritsa Samios explore why its reasons underscore the need for care to be taken before commissioning an investigation report, and entering into any limited waiver arrangement, such as VDAs.

As a subsidiary of the Nikon Corporation, Nikon Metrology has welcomed the recent comprehensive update to Volume 5.1 of the automotive measurement standards issued by the German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA). The newly updated VDA standards cover a more comprehensive array of measurement applications within the automotive sector, addressing the industry's growing demand for more diverse and sophisticated metrology solutions. As Andreas Fuchs, Application Engineer at Nikon Metrology explains: “We already offer innovative, traceable measurement solutions based on national and international standards for the automotive industry. The new standard defines very precisely the procedures for evaluating the precise technology that we provide. After all, with the APDIS Laser Radar, our portfolio has featured a product for some time now that can also deliver traceable inline measurements as described in VDA Volume 5.1. Incidentally, those who use this technology no longer need a dedicated measuring room for a fixed CMM – enabling them to save a great deal of money, time and space.” The APDIS Laser Radar represents a USP with its proven ability to measure details at a distance without needing handheld probes, targets or surface preparation. This makes it ideal for automating repetitive inspection tasks with high accuracy. The system covers many manufacturing, industrial and research applications, including those that involve hard-to-reach features and are complex, delicate, or labour-intensive. The additional benefits of the APDIS Laser Radar include fast and accurate automated measurements with minimal set-up time for maximum productivity with flexible and portable installation. This allows for the absolute and accurate measurement of parts during production or wherever required, including directly on the production line. The APDIS Laser Radar, in particular, displays its strengths in the automotive industry. For example, the system can measure automotive features with absolute accuracy at high speed with no part preparation, whether inline or offline. With inline measurement, data can be collected in a much larger sample, resulting in a much more extensive data volume for process control. Therefore, it is wise to develop and use smart evaluation methods or systems and, in the process, adapt the reaction speed to the increased data volume. “These days, inline measuring technology tends to measure 100% of the parts, giving a very dense test sample with an extremely short response time and close to production,” says Fuchs. “When the part goes through, a real-time statement regarding the quality of the part is delivered immediately – meaning the response time, as well as statistical and general process control, are far better than before. A measuring room, on the other hand, only provides information about ongoing quality with a delay. In addition, there are no statements about the ongoing process, and production continues.” VDA Volume 5.1 appears to consider the trend that measurements are increasingly being made using traceable inline measuring systems instead of offline in the measuring room, making the implementation of suitability certificates for inline measuring processes in accordance with VDA Volume 5 more critical. VDA Volume 5.1 introduces an eight-stage model for evaluating inline measuring systems throughout their lifecycle. This model generates suitability certificates crucial for system release, ensuring compliance with automotive manufacturing standards. These certificates are significant in procurement as tenders for measuring systems regularly reference VDA volumes, highlighting the importance of standards in guiding industry-wide quality control and measurement practices.

VDA parodų salėse Titanikas atidaryta personalinė menininkės Dovilės Dagienės fotografijų paroda „Botanizirė“ (kuratorius Adam Mazur). Jos pavadinimas kilęs iš žodžio botanizirė (gr. botanē – žolė, želmenys, daržovės) – tai pailga, dažniausiai metalinė dėžutė rinkti augalams botaninių ekskursijų metu. Parodoje pristatomos instaliacijos ir organinės fotografijos naujai atskleidžia Lietuvos žydų atminimo temą. Prieš tai Dovilės Dagienės kūriniai eksponuoti Lodzės tarptautiniame fotografijos festivalyje. Šią parodą inspiravo Vilnių ir Lodzę jungiančio abiejų miestų universitetų botanikos profesoriaus Jakubo Mowszowicziaus (1901-1983) patirtys ir išgyvenimai. Jis iš gausios šeimos vienintelis išgyveno po karo; prie J. Mowszowicziaus išgelbėjimo prisidėjo ir lietuviai. Daugiau nei 30 Jakubo Mowszowicziaus šeimos narių buvo nužudyti Paneriuose, kurių kalvų ir pievų augaliją Vilniaus botanikas tyrinėjo prieš karą. Apie augalų atmintį kalbasi parodos autorė ir botanikė Radvilė Rimgailė-Voicik.Ved. menotyrininkė Laima Kreivytė

Citrix Provisioning Services (PVS) is one of the two image management technologies available in Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktops and Citrix DaaS.  Historically PVS has been used to deliver Citrix Virtual Apps and Desktop workloads (VDA's) to servers and virtual machines from a single image over the network.  However, it can also be used without CVAD/DaaS as a standalone product, physically streaming the OS disk to an endpoint device. These endpoint devices can be “dummy terminals” with no hard drives at all, zero/thin clients, high-end compute and graphics devices, and everything in between.  This can include additional use cases for Security and locations with devices without hard drives. In this episode we discuss the history of PVS and some of its applicable use cases.  We also cover some technical aspects of PVS and the benefits enabled by the roll-forward and roll-back of images.  Host:  Bill SuttonCo-Host:  Geremy MyersCo-Host:  Todd Smith

The conversation also highlights cautionary tales and best practices for successfully navigating the VDA process. The hosts emphasize the importance of working with a tax professional and provide contact information for further assistance.Takeaways - Voluntary Disclosure Agreements (VDAs) allow businesses to come into compliance with state sales tax requirements. - VDAs offer benefits such as waiving historical tax obligations, penalties, and interest. - Every state has some form of voluntary disclosure program. - The VDA process involves contacting the state, waiting for a response, submitting information, and signing the VDA agreement. The VDA process involves several steps, including the initial request, state response, signing the agreement, providing data, reviewing the tax bill, and making the payment. - It is crucial to work with a tax professional who can guide you through the VDA process and ensure compliance with state requirements.Caution should be exercised when entering into payment agreements, as failure to comply with the terms may result in additional penalties and interest. - Proper record-keeping and understanding the taxability of sales are essential for a successful VDA process.Submitting a VDA letter anonymously through a tax professional can help maintain confidentiality and avoid potential issues.Chapters00:00 Introduction to VDAs03:07 Benefits of VDAs06:57 Why Voluntarily Disclose Sales Tax10:36 Voluntary Disclosure Programs in Every State15:25 Steps of the VDA Process24:46 Signing the VDA Agreement26:15 Introduction to Voluntary Disclosure Agreements (VDA)27:02 Step 1: Initial Request27:46 Step 2: State Response28:11 Step 3: Respond to the State's Response29:06 Step 4: Sign and Countersign the Agreement29:39 Step 5: Provide Data to the State31:24 Step 6: State Review and Tax Bill34:05 Step 7: Pay the Tax Bill36:23 Cautionary Tales and Best Practices45:27 Submitting a VDA48:03 Conclusion and Contact Information

Virtualization takes many shapes and sizes. For your business, it may make the most sense to host your applications in the cloud, so that you can expand as needed for seasonal workforces or contractors. You may need to host some applications on-premises for compliance reasons. It may make even more sense to utilize a hybrid model and host some applications in the cloud and some on-premises. However, hybrid environments can increase complexity and reduce efficiency for IT departments if not managed correctly, multiplying the number of deployments that need to be managed.With Destination: Hybrid, Citrix makes managing hybrid deployments simple and efficient. Many of our latest feature developments have been aimed at increasing operational efficiency across hybrid, cloud, and on-premises deployments. IT Admins can work from any management location they choose with Citrix, for a fully customizable solution, with no obligation to move fully to the cloud. This shift is part of our Destination: Hybrid initiative to meet you where you are, on-premises, in the cloud, or a combination of both. All of the innovations you will read about below save admins time and effort when rolling out application and desktop workloads. VDA upgrade service, Web Studio for on-premises deployments, automatic agent upgrades, and Autoscale for on-premises deployments offer a wide variety of new tools that will make your environment more efficient than ever, with less effort from your IT team.Host: Andy WhitesideCo-host: Bill SuttonCo-host: Geremy MeyersCo-host: Todd Smith

In this episode of the SALTovation podcast, Alex Korzhen, Tram Le, Meredith Smith and Stacey Roberts discuss how companies are increasingly agnostic about hiring as they gain trust and confidence in their remote workforces. This is giving employees more freedom to move about and creating some interesting tax ramifications when either employees fail to tell their employers they are on the move or interdepartmental communications fail. The employer may not even hear about an employee move until tax issues arise. Learn what happens when employee and internal communications fail to account for employees on the move, and what it looks like when they do.     Topics discussed in this episode: Navigating the internal communications ecosystem  The differences between a VDA and VCA State-by-state income tax ramifications   What You Will Learn: [01:44] Client story: Voluntary Compliance Program [06:49] Sales tax by state  [10:01] Data mining within departments    Quotables: “Recruiting, HR, IT, Finance, and Tax all have regular business activities as part of their daily function and they make decisions that affect state tax obligations. If those decisions are made without the proper steps being taken to get some sort of governmental or departmental licensure, then one department will begin to data mine another.” - Alex Korzhen [09:17] “As we have come out of covid, companies are still barely agnostic about where they hire and allow employees to move around, whether they know it or not. That is where issues arise. Payroll is maybe not getting notified about it until that person goes to file their return. Unfortunately, some companies are behind the eight ball on that. - Stacey Roberts [04:40] “The sales department does a disservice to the finance and accounting department because they either don't get the right information to charge the right tax in the right jurisdiction, or the right tax at all. It screws up the sourcing for many things.” - Tram Le [08:00] “It is not just payroll we have to worry about. We have to worry about the income tax and the sales tax. Payroll can be messy but finance needs to work with us to make sure all the accounts and files are set up properly. It is a domino affect.” - Meredith Smith [08:40]

In this episode of the SALTovation podcast, we talk about voluntary disclosure agreements and why you would want to recommend them to a client. Alex Korzhen, Tram Le, and Meredith Smith discuss how a VDA can be an efficient self-audit that is cost-effective. They also discuss how to evaluate the pricing of the VDA process and consult with your clients, if it is determined a voluntary disclosure agreement is necessary. Topics discussed in this episode: The VDA process and determining the value of them for clients How VDA's are priced state to state What You Will Learn: [00:49] Defining a VDA [05:54] How to advise clients [09:40] Working on a state-by-state basis   Quotables:   “A VDA is a legal agreement that provides documentation that says I took my taxes seriously so I can provide this in due diligence in funding, in acquisition activity. So we do a lot of clean up and remediation as a result of due diligence.” - Meredith Smith [02:47] “States are much easier to deal with under a VDA scenario than if they caught you if you received a nexus questionnaire or if you are being audited. It is not hostile but there is this undertone of “Gotcha!”. So you either approach on your terms or you are reviewed on their terms. ” - Alex Korzhen [04:06] “The cost of a VDA, to negotiate that agreement as well as provide that self-audit to a state, pretty much pays for itself. I think that is a great reason for a client to do it.” - Tram Le [04:50] “Determining if a VDA is worth it depends on the process at the state level or local jurisdictions. I think it really depends on what that process entails. Are we having to fill out a ton of forms or provide a narrative? The timing factor plays a big role as well. If we are dealing with bad data we can't do the self-audit efficiently. ” - Tram Le [06:00]
