How SMART is your business?

What production issues and business challenges are you currently facing?

In a world that is digital more than ever today and reliant on technology, we know from experience the issues businesses are facing now, especially when it comes to IIoT and IT/OT convergence. In the case of IT/OT, the two have historically had separate business objectives, though now with IT Managers starting to converse more freely with the production staff and engineers, the business can be seen from a much larger scale and the intricacies of issues and flow more visible.

Here at Routeco we have the expertise to help you think about where your business currently is and to get you thinking about your SMART objectives for the future. Below are a few areas for you to think about.

Is your business:

• Suffering network issues?

• Have you thought about network failure and the impact that could have on production? (think about real-time down time and financial loss)
• Thinking about optimising profitability?
