The document discusses how cloud computing is transforming the manufacturing industry, which has been slow to adopt new technologies due to security concerns. By integrating cloud technology, manufacturers can streamline operations, improve efficiency, and better manage data from machines in real-time. This shift to automation and cloud-based applications allows manufacturers to enhance sales tracking, marketing efforts, and overall business focus.

1. Is Cloud
Computing
Reforming The
Manufacturing
Industry?

2. The manufacturing industry has been a slow adopter of new
technology, and rightfully due to raised security concerns. If an
organization is planning to automate its industrial process,
they also need to assure that the new technology is secure
enough and capable of effectively managing the workload.
Cloud computing has proven its worth and it's been used
majorly as a mainstream technology in different business
domain. Not long did it take for the manufacturing companies
to understand the core value of integrating cloud with the
industrial operations and now the sector is rapidly adopting
cloud technology to improve business efficiency. Let's discuss
this in detail.

3. Manufacturers are burdened with the demand to become more
agile, improve accuracy, and to invest on its internal intelligenc
and knowledge. As according to researches, many
manufacturing industries managed most of its operations
manually which was rather difficult and inefficient. They kept a
record of elements manufactured and discarded, issues with the
machinery, and so on and ultimately, all of this data was
maintained in an excel spreadsheet. This information was
further used daily to create reports for management and for
additional other purposes.
Manufacturing industry and cloud

4. Now with the integration of technology and industrial
components, manufacturers are able to obtain data directly from
the machines that cut down the layers of processes involved the
other way. Machines are merged with the cloud applications and
it is helping manufacturers to host software and keep track of
data generated, remotely. Initially, cloud was used for only used
for accessing and sharing data, but as the technology evolved, it
enabled real-time connectivity among materials, people and
machines.
Furthermore, cloud solutions assisted these organizations in
apply their own inherited ideas into every sales condition.
Although on-premise systems were capable of doing this, it lacke
the agility and efficiency that of cloud solutions. Besides, cloud-
based systems were easier to manage and maintain, customize
and potentially surge adoption rates across resellers.

5. Here are certain ways manufacturers have applied cloud-
based
strategies in their business.
Managing direct and indirect sales has become a
commonplace as most manufacturers have integrated cloud
applications to keep a systematic records of sales result.
What's more is that the application provides status of the
profit and loss statement of each deal.
For convenient planning and execution of marketing
campaigns, cloud-based marketing applications are used that
effectively and accurately tracks campaign results. As
marketing is currently playing a crucial role in the
manufacturing industry, manufacturers want to keep a keen
track of everything that is happening under this category and
as a result, automation is delivering exceptional results.

6. Manufacturers have initiated automation and integration of
customer support, service, order status queries to content
management and distributed order management platforms,
resulting in cost and time efficiency.
These are just few cloud approaches that manufacturing
industries have applied to their system. Nevertheless, the
conclusion here is that automation is indeed helping
manufacturers to cut down time consuming tasks and focus mor
on their main business.
