The Manufacturing Dilemmas
The manufacturing industry is changing because people are changing. Today, people want a wider range of products delivered faster and bought cheaper, and they’ll keep them for less time. That’s why high-mix, low volume manufacturing continues to grow, and production facilities continue to look for new ways to keep up while still cutting costs. Add to that, fewer and fewer people want to work in traditional industries, making recruiting and retaining qualified workers harder and harder. The result? A greater need for flexible, intelligent capital that adapts as quickly as your people do, makes your work more productive, and doesn’t need an eight-figure budget or 1 year of downtime to implement.
