Manufacturing

With so many variables to impact product demand, yield, and reliability, Manufacturers are constantly looking for ways to optimize processes. Your production environment is providing an abundance of data. However, it is almost impossible for your analysts to use all of that data to reveal important insights effectively and timely.

It’s time to break down those silos and generate accurate forecasts that link production to customer demand, finance to supply and marketing to sales. Enabling your analysts to identify patterns and relationships within processes and the impact it has on other demand and production yield will allow your organisation to identify and correct defects before they become prevalent.

Digital transformation will create a single view that will allow your analysts to investigate how changes in product pricing, packaging, supply and production processes will impact customer sentiment and demand. It will also enable your maintenance team to better predict and decrease unscheduled maintenance and warranty claims due to faulty components, creating more uptime and smoother operations leading to faster and more reliable supply to your customers.
