Manufacturing companies are in the middle of a process of digital transformation that is bringing Industry 4.0 to life. Various digital technologies are driving this transformation, including IT solutions like ERP, MES, CRM, and PLM systems, as well as cloud and cybersecurity technologies.  These technologies are increasing efficiency, transparency, and resilience within organizations’ core processes. 

Integrating new technologies

At the same time, emerging solutions like the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), artificial intelligence, and data analytics are enabling the digital enhancement of products and the provision of new services for customers everywhere. Modern production technologies such as AGVs, 3D printing, and robotics are increasingly integrated into smart factories in order to enhance flexibility, efficiency, and quality in production processes. 

Building digital competencies

Where can we set the right strategic focus in your digitalization efforts? Which directions, initiatives, and use-cases will generate the highest business value? How can we design a future-oriented digital architecture in order to be flexible, scalable, and efficient? Finding the answers to these questions and others like them will determine your success.
 
Finding the right solutions, applications, and technologies for new manufacturing initiatives will not be enough to ensure firms are ready to meet customer demands; these solutions must also be implemented correctly and integrated with existing systems. At the same time, the pursuit of digital change will depend on manufacturing companies being able to win the hearts and minds of their leadership teams and employees.
