Manufacturing Today

For manufacturers, they have transformed every task their organization performs – from purchasing and HR to production, distribution and after-sales support. That can be overwhelming for those yet to meaningfully embark on their digital journey. Yet, the imperative to adopt is only becoming more urgent. The frequency and scale of supply chain disruption, extreme weather events, geopolitical tensions and economic crises are all on the rise.

At the same time, manufacturers face mounting pressure from more agile competitors, greater regulatory compliance – particularly regarding carbon emissions and the drive to net zero, and challenging new customer expectations. In order to become more resilient and responsive to whatever the future may bring, manufacturers must grasp the concept of digital transformation and its potential to optimize their operations, empower employees, engage with customers, and transform their products and services.

Now is the time for manufacturers to take their willingness to embrace physical technologies, as seen in the previous revolutions driven by steam, electricity and robotics, and apply it to digital solutions. What’s important to note is that this ‘Fourth Industrial Revolution’ is as much about knowledge, strategy and collaboration as it is about technology.
