SAS Manufacturing Analytics: IT IS DECISIONS THAT RUN A BUSINESS, NOT DATA!

TODAY, INDUSTRY LEADERS ACKNOWLEDGE that this pandemic has changed the world in profound ways with long-lasting effects. It has disrupted supply chains, reduced the scale and speed of operations, and in many cases, it has brought production to a grinding halt.

Despite the lack of digitisation, the manufacturing fraternity across process and discrete segments have done a commendable job in terms of making most of their products available, particularly those from the industry that were serving essential supplies.

For many businesses, a substantial part of 2020 was a phase of groping in the dark, as they constantly had to adjust to the new normal. While manufacturing industries faced the severe brunt of disruption at the onset of the pandemic, the situation also accelerated the need for digital transformation. Today, manufacturing and consumer packaged goods (CPG) leaders are fully committed to establishing a structured approach to digital transformation that will increase their business agility and resilience to weather storms such as the present pandemic.
