Advisory Note
Expert recommendations for this solution area.
"Start with visibility before automation."
You can't improve what you can't see. Most plants underestimate how much value sits in simply digitizing what's already happening.

"Focus on measurable outcomes, not technology adoption."
Anchor every initiative to a number on a balance sheet — throughput, defects, energy, OTIF — not the technology name.
