Smart Manufacturing

Industry 4.0 / Smart Manufacturing
The COVID-19 global pandemic has disrupted many industries & caused enterprises to re-think their global strategy. In Manufacturing, the traditional approaches to engaging Suppliers, Customers, Workforce & driving Productivity have been irreversibly altered.
At the same time, Manufacturers now have access to a wealth of modernization options through technology to unlock digital transformation for their production lines. These technology options include the Industrial Internet of Things (IoT), Edge Computing (Edge), Artificial Intelligence, Digital Twins Augmented/Mixed Reality which are almost always delivered from the Cloud, increasingly leveraging 5G. Manufacturers are therefore increasingly harnessing the Cloud to deliver competitive advantage through New Product Development, engaging with Suppliers, Customers, Employees and collaborating with partners. These options allow Manufacturers to deliver agility, unlock global innovation and digitize production lines rapidly, at scale and a pace never seen before in the Industry.

Manufacturing processes such as Product Lifecycle Management (PLM), Asset Lifecycle Management (ALM), Manufacturing Execution Systems (MES) no longer have to operate in pre-pandemic aged IT (Information Technology) or OT (Operations Technology) silos. For the first time, the Cloud can bring these disparate systems together, allowing them to share data seamlessly, at scale, positively impacting production optimization and accelerating digital transformation. Open Technology standards including OPC Unified Architecture (OPC UA) have become the foundation for communication and data modeling to deliver Industry 4.0.

Enabling the upskilling requires more digital tools for Training, Communication, Collaboration & real-time, on the job training solutions leveraging Augmented/Mixed Reality which are available today for all manufacturers. The ones that harness these capabilities fastest, will be able to out-compete in the market.

This can significantly accelerate Industry 4.0 adoption, because it mitigates the equipment life-cycle challenges for Manufacturers, who can further monetize their legacy investments, once they are connected to the Cloud while also deploying new-age Digital Assets.
