We are undergoing the industry 4.0 revolution, however, it is important to not forget human creativity and intellect.
"One fact remains central to our success as manufacturers: Humans are and will be central to the smart factory of the future. In the same way that humans are fundamental to Manufacturing 4.0, we are central to achieving a more lean factory. Those who truly understand what lean is all about know that human intelligence, creativity, and innovation are at its heart. It’s about harnessing and augmenting those human abilities so that companies are able to achieve improved efficiency and effectiveness in plant operations."
