May, 20206 The future of the manufacturing companiesare depending heavily on the evolving cutting-edge technologies and the way manufacturers are deploying them to enhance their business outcomes. For instance, the influence of wearable technology can be directly attributed to the rise of the Internet of Things (IoT) in the manufacturing industry. The sensors on these wearable devices are being used to monitor workflow efficiency, and thus improve production. Employers are also seen maintaining a record of workplace activities and health parameters, which would equip them with the information needed to customize the workplace for workers. Additionally, the predictive management approach undertaken by enterprises is preventing asset failure by analyzing a machine's history and recognizing patterns. This has proved to be extremely helpful to predict machine failure early, save time, and avoid disruptions as the manufacturers need to maintain a proper data set for every machine so it can be reviewed. And, with the introduction of 5G, factories are leveraging the benefits of wireless flexibility and low latency. Going in tandem with the idea of increasing connectivity in their organizations, cybersecurity has also become crucial. With cybercrime on the rise, manufacturers are suggested to practice absolute control on their strategies to drive down the cybercrime statistics considerably.In this edition of APAC CIO Outlook, we bring you the story of some of the most successful manufacturing technology companies that deliver the best outcomes for their clients.
