Enable the end-to-end Digital Value Chain
Insight to action
Embedding analytics and using digital assistants help component manufacturers generate detailed information to resolve issues, prioritize activities, and drill into specific analytics to link business transactions and collaboratively make better decisions faster.
Customer centricity
Offering a consumer-grade digital experience is critical for intelligent component manufacturing. By producing parts that fit the exact needs of the customer and engaging customers early in the buying cycle, manufacturers can leverage comprehensive insights across all sales channels to provide highly desired, on-time, and top-quality parts to their customers.
Serving the need for variability
Delivering a wide variety of high-quality innovative products and services quickly is mandatory in today’s digital economy. By capturing customer requirements effectively and driving mass customization, component manufacturers can maximize customer satisfaction,differentiate from the competition, and grow market share.
Smart factory and digital supply chain
Developing and managing intelligent business networks that integrate vertically into customer markets enables manufacturing processes to become more efficient by leveraging IoT technologies to drive efficient production operations and improve product quality.
Digital smart products
Providing innovative solutions and managing digital intellectual property (IP) effectively help component manufacturers actualize replenishment strategies and leverage new technology such as 3D printing capabilities for spare parts to keep costs down, minimize risk, and reduce downtime.
Aftermarket service
Meeting or exceeding customer expectations by providing predictive services, timely spare-parts delivery, and new business models, such as comprehensive tooling management, helps component manufacturers grow market share. Innovating with new digital value-added services that span multiple channels, distributors, and customers helps reduce costs, improve compliance, and maximize revenue.
