Making the transition from the industrial age to the digital age is no small feat. There are plenty of distractions and pitfalls along the way. To increase your chances of success, it is pertinent to “start with the end in mind” and build a solid foundation around the seven primary components that make up the core of this revolution.
While 83% of engineering and manufacturing leaders agree they need to invest in smart manufacturing, around 57% also feel their organization lacks the skilled workers they need to support transformation plans. Almost by definition, your most capable people are consumed with running the business. Often, they don’t have time available to figure out how to adopt new Smart Manufacturing technologies that will improve asset utilization, reduce daily firefighting and ultimately revolutionize the business.
We work with your team to create an optimized and connected, action plan. Our systematic approach increases the probability of a successful transformation and brings your team up to speed. Some examples of major innovations we support include automation, robotics, IoT connectivity, system integration, data analytics, smart factories, cyber security, machine learning, and, of course, your biggest asset – your people.
A few expert tips to keep in mind:
- Start with the business needs and work backwards to the technology.
- Choosing the right technology does not guarantee success. We must also have the correct organizational readiness.
- Focus on opportunities that move the needle.
- Encourage your team to break barriers. Celebrate learning for both successes and failures.
