What it Means to Transition to Digital Manufacturing in the Digital Economy
Guest post from RIA member Jabil
Think about all the ways that digital technology is making your life easier. Amazon, for example, has increasingly removed “friction” from its end-to-end buying process by reducing the number of steps customers need to take in order to complete a transaction. And it doesn’t end there. Amazon is also exploring 30-minute delivery of certain items in certain areas. Its Dash service, incorporated into our appliances, automatically orders and delivers items like laundry detergent when sensors detect supply is running low. Eventually, our Dash service orders will even be delivered by autonomous drones. Now, imagine a world where every industry from automotive to healthcare transforms its customer experience while adding value through novel business services. It starts with digital thinking.
