According to the 4th Annual State of Manufacturing Technology Report done by Plex, The Manufacturing Cloud, the technologies that today have the greatest effect on manufacturing leaders are those that collaborate with and leverage connectivity, regardless of whether the enterprise operates entirely in the cloud or has a mix of cloud and locally installed software.

Many companies, regardless of size, are changing their processes, digitizing and automating them. And it is inevitable to see the benefits of controlling each stage, to have greater visibility of achievements and errors. The report asserts that manufacturers that do not invest in technology for greater integration will be left behind and with the passing of time will be obsolete. "It is essential that manufacturers take the necessary steps as soon as possible to modernize. Those who care about the process should be aware that it will not be easy, but it is necessary and worthwhile". 

So what to do about it? The ideal way to embrace the industry revolution 4.0 is to determine what operational challenges technology could solve. The advantage of these technologies is that it is not necessary to eliminate and replace systems, as was the case with many of the legacy systems of the past. Manufacturers can approach digitization by focusing on one problem and one process at a time, while laying the foundation for a complete transformation. The report recommends having a combined approach with a well-developed plan to harness cutting-edge technology across the enterprise, this will bring an advantage over those who are not acting hand in hand with technology.
