The Challenge: Why Industry 4.0 and IIoT Initiatives Stall
Many companies are investing in the Internet of Things in manufacturing, but struggle to move beyond the pilot stage. Your goal is a fully realized smart factory for Industry 4.0, but you're facing common roadblocks:
- Fragmented IoT Technology: Your IoT for manufacturing industry devices produce endless data, but it's siloed and difficult to translate into actionable intelligence across your operations.
- Disconnected Processes: Your Industry 4.0 supply chain is managed separately from factory floor operations, creating blind spots and inefficiencies.
- The "Digital Twin" Limitation: The concept of a digital twin in Industry 4.0 is promising, but often results in isolated models that don't connect the entire value network, hindering true digital transformation.
