New survey suggests that plant professionals expect more from both their software and their consulting partners.
"A recent survey conducted by Plant Services and L2L sums up this view of an industry in desperate need of reinvention. The survey reveals a disconnect between the type of enterprise software systems being recommended and implemented, and what the plant floor actually needs.
The survey also notes that manufacturers often think of technology as a way to decrease their reliance on humans. A more effective approach would be to look for systems that really engage and energize workers on the plant floor. In fact, the human element could be the most important factor in keeping the manufacturing industry moving forward and adapting to changing times."
