The Manufacturing sector has experienced a great deal of disruption in recent years and experts predict this will continue for the foreseeable future. This ‘new normal’ has proven that many of the strategies and tactics of the past are no longer enough. In fact, many proved to be damaging to sales and profitability. For example, past decisions about how to best source and manufacture cost effectively with emphasis on sourcing materials and components from developing countries, are now being re-examined.
Success now depends on effectively managing all the complex factors throughout the business so the organization is synchronized, operates efficiently, and can quickly adapt to changing conditions. It’s also about system acceptance and adoption by users who understand and appreciate the capabilities delivered to the organization.
