Digital Transformation Consultancy + Competitive Vigilance
Description
The digital transformation and Industry 4.0 consultancy offered by ITA is oriented in the first phase towards identifying opportunities for improvement in different areas of the company based on the implementation of technologies and concepts associated with Industry 4.0, seeking to have a direct impact on productivity, quality and efficiency in manufacturing or in its control. In a second phase, these opportunities will be assessed and prioritised, and will be materialised in projects so that the company can make informed decisions on its path towards Industry 4.0.
When moving along the path of digital transformation, a company may encounter a number of factors that can hinder the adoption of Industry 4.0 technologies in the company. Firstly, a company, especially if it is an SME, can be overwhelmed by the possibilities of 4.0 technologies. They are new technologies that are not well known and require specialised work for their implementation.
Secondly, the true potential of World 4.0 will be achieved by a combination of technologies and not just by independently executing developments focused on any one of them. Therefore, a certain broad vision and a broad multidisciplinary knowledge is necessary to take advantage of its full potential.
Being aware of this and with this approach, ITA has proposed this consultancy service in digital transformation and Industry 4.0.
