SearchThe State of Digital Manufacturing 2024: Unlocking the Power of Digital Transformation
At Tacton, we are committed to understanding how manufacturers will navigate the path to a resilient future, strategically fortifying their operations. That’s why for the fourth consecutive year we have engaged with manufacturing professionals, conducting polls to capture a snapshot of their plans for 2024 and beyond.
We analyzed how the maturity of digital implementations impacts several areas of their business such as revenue generation, profitability & productivity. Our findings clearly indicate that manufacturers who are advanced in their digital transformation projects realize much more value than those who haven’t planned or are just starting out.
Key Insights:
Enhanced Profitability: 57% of firms with advanced digital implementations see improved profitability, compared to 38% of those just starting out.
