Manufacturing technology can differentiate between leaders and laggards. More importantly, they can redefine an organization’s ability to attract and retain customers and employees. Economic, social and ever-changing customer requirements are demanding manufacturing transform its abilities to adopt and scale with agility, and while manufacturers have unprecedented interest in digitalization, they struggle to make the transformation work. Some of the more common issues we see as integrators are:
• Newer technologies are purchased but not fully utilized or trained for, so money gets wasted and usable equipment gets abandoned.
• Processes that could be automated and simplified continue to be managed manually, consuming time and energy that could be spent on higher-value tasks.
• In emergency situations, people are put at risk because systems aren’t integrated to deliver the fastest deployment and emergency response.
While technology never stops evolving, it can be challenging to stay on top of the latest trends and innovations. From crisis response to emergency notifications, manufacturing facilities are facing issues that require fresh perspectives and staff expertise that takes time to develop.
The tech learning curve presents a challenge for most manufacturers, with staff already stretched thinly and on-call 24/7 for support. Finding a managed services provider (MSP) to alleviate the day-to-day strain is critical to help your internal IT team focus on driving better efficiencies and cost-savings. And having a partner who can help evaluate and recommend new solutions based on your organizational needs and manufacturing streams is a valuable asset for any operator.
