Manufacturers get Smart

Smart technology is very much the buzzword of the moment. Across a wide variety of sectors and industries there’s talk about how the Internet of Things is going to revolutionise our lives. For many UK manufacturers though, Smart technology remains a topic that’s wrapped up in a degree of mysticism, with many business owners reluctant to change existing tools and processes without a better understanding of what the benefits are. Exact is looking to help address that – with a series of breakfast seminars across the UK, where manufacturers can learn more insights about what it can offer them, as well as share their views and concerns about this hotly debated topic.

Pieter Hamans, Principal, Product Marketing (Manufacturing) at Exact, will be sharing insights on how Smart industries can have a higher degree of flexibility in production output, in terms of product needs, volume, timing, resource efficiency and cost. How they are able to fully cater to customer needs better and make use of the entire supply chain for value creation by making the most of information, technology and the most advanced manufacturing techniques.

On a wider level, Hamans will discuss the benefits the new technology can bring in terms of creating a more competitive manufacturing industry, including economic growth and job creation on a national level. Manufacturers can hear more and share their views, by signing up to these free breakfast briefings using the link below.
