Manufacturing costs are the total costs required to produce goods—from the moment inputs enter the production system to the point a finished product is ready for sale. For CFOs, CEOs, and COOs, the focus is less on accounting detail and more on understanding what shapes costs in practice—and where leadership decisions can influence outcomes. At a high level, manufacturing costs […]

Manufacturers are under pressure to do more with less: less time, less energy, less waste, and fewer people on the shop floor. Connected manufacturing is about linking machines, people, systems, and data so they work as one, instead of as separate islands. When production lines, warehouses, quality, maintenance, and supply chain all share real-time information,

Industrial sites are busy, messy places. You’ve got more connected machines than ever, strict safety rules, and fewer people covering larger areas. Data pours in from sensors, PLCs, SCADA, and maintenance systems—but it’s scattered. When something goes wrong, it can take too long to spot and even longer to fix. Walk-throughs and manual checks still

In manufacturing, the most expensive problems are the ones you don’t see coming. A bearing runs hot, a cutter drifts out of spec, a camera misses a subtle defect—minutes later you’re fighting scrap, rework, and downtime. That’s why leaders are moving from reactive alerts to real‑time anomaly detection: continuously analyzing sensor, machine, and process data

Manufacturing has become more complex in recent years. Customer expectations are growing, supply chains are harder to manage, and products are becoming more advanced. For OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers), this means dealing with a wide range of challenges — from production efficiency to parts availability and service coordination. One approach that’s starting to make a

Manufacturing today is more complex than ever. With production lines running at full speed, machine sensors constantly collecting data and global supply chains in motion, factories generate an enormous amount of real-time information every second. But collecting data isn’t the same as using it effectively — the real challenge is turning raw numbers into insights
