The Directive on Digital Transformation – Manufacturing Report

Transforming Manufacturing, Embracing digital

On Wednesday 30th September Atos and The Manufacturer invited a carefully selected number of senior decision makers from across the UK Manufacturing sector to the Atos Business Technology and Innovation Centre (BTIC) in London for a roundtable event.

Hosted by Mukesh Parekh (VP, Manufacturing and Retail, Atos) and Henry Anson (Co-Owner, The Manufacturer) the event, titled “Transforming Manufacturing, Embracing Digital”, saw high profile figures from Manufacturing organisations, Industry Bodies and Technology Partners discuss and debate the impact of digital solutions and technologies on the sector.

A focus was placed on real world experience and how those gathered in the room have seen digital transformation and the “Industry 4.0” concept play out in practice on their own shop floors and production sites.

The facilitated discussions at the event targeted 4 key areas of digital transformation and the separate yet interlinked challenges these present. These 4 key areas are; Operational Excellence, Customer Experience, Business Reinvention and Trust & Compliance.

This Directive on Digital Transformation for Manufacturing report presents to you an overview and consolidation of the discussions that took place at the event, and draws out the key conversations, insight and thoughts presented to help inform, educate and inspire as you pursue you own journey towards digital transformation.
