To thrive in the future, manufacturing must become quicker, smarter, and greener.

This complimentary report from Forrester outlines 4 big trends affecting the manufacturing industry and the 8 technology clusters that form the toolkit that technology executives will use to respond in the short, medium, and long term.

You will be able to learn more about how:

• Leveraging the power of data, aided by increased sensoring and IoT technologies, will become a more pivotal component of success.

• Transporting, storing and processing that data is key to gaining the needed insight.

• Knowledge of future states—supply chain, customer demand, weather—move from good-to-knows to imperative.

Historical data, timely observations from IoT sensors and other systems, and knowledge of future states — both internal (e.g., production capacity, maintenance schedules) and external (e.g., supply chain flexibility, customer demand, the weather) — combine to offer manufacturers more granular control over their business.
