Overview: Industrial manufacturers are among those most challenged by the emergence of a global manufacturing landscape. Yet if this challenge is met correctly, it also brings with it the possibility for these same manufacturers of new, emerging markets for their products and services.

To take advantage, however, manufacturers will need to eliminate waste, deliver innovative products, and attain mass customization delivery capabilities. By concentrating on these key modalities of lean processes, demand and supply synchronization, product innovation, and services provision, industrial manufacturers will be readier than ever to compete in the global marketplace.

The white paper from Manufacturing Business Technology examines how industrial manufacturers can successfully first define their needs, and then take a systematic approach to use of information technology in support of business initiatives, based on a clear understanding of the capabilities inherent in today’s enterprise systems.
