It’s a great time to be in manufacturing – if you take advantage of the digital challenge
Across discrete manufacturing, digitally-driven changes have a massive impact on business, collaboration, relationships, behavior and expectations.
Where is this impact felt most keenly? Previously fragmented supply chains have now become virtual teams. Your customers build online relationships with products. Additive manufacturing and machine-to-machine communications begin to impact both production and ongoing product use.
In the face of these digital shockwaves, manufacturers must learn how to exploit massive and growing volumes of data. In this connected world, your ability to use data as a core asset becomes key to sustainable success.
Atos has impeccable and well-established credentials in discrete manufacturing.

Make Atos your partner for digital transformation.
According to PAC, IT services spending is increasing in manufacturing much higher than in other industries, making up a share of about 25% of all manufacturing spending in 2020.
