This workshop seeks to discover how bespoke software can unlock new levels of efficiency, visibility, and flexibility for SME Manufacturers
Data integration is one of biggest issues that manufacturing business face when trying to effectively link between one software package to another – often resulting in duplication of task and disjointed data collection and reporting. Even worse is the dependency on half a dozen spreadsheets held by different individuals in different parts of the business.
Data Integration should enable the business to process a combining data from various sources (databases, apps, cloud services) into a single, unified view to provide comprehensive insights for better business intelligence, analytics, and decision-making, breaking down data silos and ensuring consistency. It turns scattered information into actionable, cohesive datasets for operational efficiency and competitive advantage, acting as the backbone of data pipelines.
This workshop seeks to discover how bespoke software can unlock new levels of efficiency, visibility, and flexibility for small and medium-sized manufacturers. We’ll explore where custom solutions fit within your existing systems, the practical benefits they deliver, and how modern development approaches reduce risk and cost. The session will step through real-world case studies showing how tailored tools have improved operations and connected disconnected processes across businesses.
