IFS Radio Network podcast: how technology is impacting industrial manufacturers and how some of the industry’s leading businesses are taking advantage of it today.
The industrial manufacturing industry has a strong appetite for technology. Now that manufacturers have experienced the game-changing benefits of automation and the emergence of interconnected and intelligent manufacturing systems, companies of all sizes are realigning their business and operational models to take advantage of new, disruptive technologies.
Manufacturers have found that they can use technology to increase profits and efficiency, which is why 55% of the industry’s businesses globally have already transitioned to Industry 4.0 (Europe) and Smart Manufacturing (United States). However, the key to using technology successfully will be in a company’s ability to distinguish between what is new and what is useful.

“However, the key to using technology successfully will be in a company’s ability to distinguish between what is new and what is useful.”
This is an excellent point. They aren’t the same! Each organization needs to take the time to determine what will work for them instead of simply chasing the newest, shiniest object.
