Data Management for Manufacturing Business

Manufacturers are under pressure to increase productivity and profitability, as well as to innovate. Making sure that data assets are available and secure is an essential initiative. Michael Watson, from Microsoft, and Martin Boyd, from Profisee will talk about the steps you can take to build an infrastructure for data that will allow you to gain agility and efficiency.

To successfully transform manufacturing into a more digital and streamlined company, it must be able to accept and harness data. But how can you do this if the data you’re relying on isn’t consistent, sufficient, or incomplete? A successful manufacturing data management strategy must commitment to strong governance in order to ensure that vital data is gathered and stored in a timely manner, and easily accessible and used at any time you need it.

More and more, top performers in the manufacturing sector are adopting a holistic approach to managing data which includes the implementation of an MDM hub to consolidate customers, vendors, product and other critical information in a single repository. This allows teams to quickly access the information they require and makes it easy for them to collaborate.

This allows manufacturers to create a digital trace of what happens to the parts during the production. This is crucial to identify issues in production and for enhancing processes and tests. It allows you to pinpoint the issues that occurred during a particular production run and the reason. This enables you to act faster in a crisis and make you more resilient.
