Webinar: How to Prepare Manufacturing Operations for a Post-pandemic Rebound

How to prepare manufacturing operations for a post-pandemic rebound with a focus on growth, profitability and sustainability

The last few years have been tumultuous for manufacturers, with demand swings, supply chain disruptions from COVID and increasing costs; new emerging imperatives for manufacturers are agility to meet customer demand, supply chain resilience, increased productivity and sustainability.

These imperatives ask to deploy supply chain and manufacturing systems which are demand driven and optimized to ensure the maximum business returns that operational constraints allow.

Within the plants, manufacturing operations must be continuously optimized to minimize losses and to secure compliance in a much more dynamic environment.

Watch this webinar to learn:

• Why digitalization is the only solution that can help enabling agile and resilient operations and drive improvements in productivity and sustainability
• Why the standardization of systems across manufacturer’s entire manufacturing network allows for consistent operational performance and compliance and a more agile and resilient supply chain
• How to support the new business models, product and customer engagement that digital transformation is enabling at the business level
