Major manufacturers are driving growth through pioneering smart factories. In comparison, SMEs have been slower to digitalise their systems and harness the power of the data flowing through their factories. This won’t be the case for much longer, says manufacturing software specialist Access Group’s Lucy Pamment.
Information is power – but only if you can get to what you need quickly and have complete confidence that it’s correct. And we know that’s a problem many production managers face every day.
Despite having invested in software and systems to collate and manage data, it can still be far too difficult to gain access to what is needed quickly and confidently. As a result, production managers often find themselves trawling through stacks of data on a regular basis.
Unconnected systems can lead to tasks or data being duplicated, inconsistent software updates and poor data cleansing. A reliance on poor quality, out-of-date and/or siloed data means production managers will struggle to make informed and effective decisions.
