Manufacturing is a cornerstone of many economies, but the industry is getting more competitive, facing higher demands and is evolving faster than ever. New technologies are making an entrance, and manufacturing companies need to connect to stay ahead. Cegeka’s Microsoft Dynamics solutions are tailored to the needs of manufacturing companies and their challenges.
The manufacturing industry is undergoing big and fast changes. From Industry 4.0 to sustainability challenges and uncertain supply chains… The need for manufacturing companies to become connected is higher than ever. Connected manufacturing companies will turn these challenges into strengths to win in the digital age.
A sturdy and reliable supply chain is crucial to manufacturing companies. But increasing uncertainty over prices and availability of transport and raw materials are compromising the supply chain. Connected manufacturing companies will lead the future with solutions like multisourcing, vertical integration and AI-infused supply chain monitoring.
Automation, Industry 4.0, blockchain applications, smart machinery and the integration between operational and information technology: the smart factory is on the rise and changing the manufacturing industry rapidly. A high-end IT infrastructure, a data-driven approach and the highest security measures are crucial to embrace this evolution.
The global need for sustainability has a huge impact on the manufacturing industry. Many companies are faced with the challenge of decreasing waste, emissions and use of plastic. To meet this challenge, they need to measure and report the production process, plan efficiently and continuously improve the production process.
To meet workforce shortages, manufacturing companies need to be able to hire, educate and plan their workforce efficiently and flexibly. Reducing unnecessary displacement, supporting employees in performing different tasks, certification or efficient collaboration platforms … The workforce challenges for manufacturing companies require innovative solutions.
