Data Management for Manufacturing Business
Manufacturers are under pressure to improve productivity and profitability as well as innovation. Making sure that data assets are accessible and secure is a crucial initiative. Michael Watson, from Microsoft, and Martin Boyd, from Profisee will discuss the steps that you can follow to establish a data foundation that will help you increase your agility and efficiency.
Manufacturing must take advantage of and harness the data to become a digitally efficient and profitable business. But how do you accomplish this when the data that you are using is incongruous, insufficient or even incomplete? A successful manufacturing data strategy must be based upon solid governance. This will ensure that the information is gathered, stored and access is made in a timely manner.
The top performers in the manufacturing sector are adopting a holistic approach to managing data that includes implementing an MDM hub that consolidates customer, vendor as well as product data into a single repository. This makes it easy for teams to access the ahma category information they require and helps teams to collaborate.
This allows manufacturers to create a digital thread of what happens to the parts during production, which is essential for diagnosing production issues and enhancing tests and processes. It lets you pinpoint the reasons for the particular process and why. This allows you to react faster in a crisis and become more resilient.
