Sven Konings, 36 years old, holds three Bachelor titles and is the Commercial Manager for TSC Silos, a worldwide operating supplier of steel, and square silo solutions for various industries, mainly feed and food-related. Sven joined TSC Silos in 2013 as an Account Manager. Both roles allowed him to travel worldwide, advising both end-users and system integrators on how square silo constructions can get integrated into their projects. This role also means he witnesses many local and global operating companies from the heart of their production. With a great interest in how cultural aspects impact the things we do, it is easy for him to stay curious.
Sven takes great pride in directly contributing to the world’s food safety and security, always focusing on increasing efficiency, as is embedded in the DNA of TSC Silos.
Abstract of presentation
A mill is often designed by its desired output and the processes required to reach that output. Only at a later stage is the actual mill building considered. However, integrating constructive thinking early in the design process can yield significant benefits.
In this presentation, we explore how integrating structural thinking into the process design from early on saves time, reduces errors, saves space, and enhances efficiency based on real-life cases. We stay away from the obvious, and present cases and solutions that are as practical as they are unnoticeable if you are not aware of them. Yet, they were only possible in the same efficient way if it wasn’t for adding structural thinking to the process thinking. This, as well as a glimpse into the future of silo design, is what to expect from Sven Konings’ talk at the Build my Feedmill conference at the Victam Asia this year.
