Maintaining and growing the South African manufacturing sector involves navigating significant risks. Digital transformation is reshaping the sector, enhancing efficiency, reducing costs and improving product quality, but what are the consequences of not keeping up with digitalisation and digital integration in your manufacturing operation?
 
According to PwC’s South African Manufacturing Analysis 2024, released in October, the South African manufacturing sector is facing increasing pressure to change and adapt, particularly with regards to decarbonisation and the design of circular-economy and sustainable products.
 
Since the onset of the industrial revolution, basic manufacturing interaction has been human-driven, often marred by error resulting in significant implications, such as downtime, cost overruns, wastage and energy-loss.
 
With global competition forcing companies to find ways to optimise production operations through the reduction of non-value-added activities; adopting Industry 4.0 tools and smart factory technologies is driving significant improvement in manufacturing efficiency and sustainability.
