The manufacturing industry has been hit hard by the pandemic. From supply chain crises to surging commodity prices, organizations have had to revaluate their strategies and business systems to adopt more responsive models. Here we discuss manufacturing's outlook for 2022, and six tech investments that can ensure resiliency for years to come.
- More than half of manufacturing firms will adopt single instance cloud systems
- Two-fifths will integrate operational data into critical systems
- Half will abandon Just-in-time (JIT) models
- Four out of five will minimize reliance on long-haul shipping
- Carbon emissions will take priority; 60 percent will improve data transparency
- Data will enable 70 percent to improve forecasting and durability
Information on these six items are detailed in the Manufacturing.net article here.
