Overview
Most mid-market manufacturers that operate in Australia are undergoing a digital transformation program aimed at eliminating inefficient and long-standing manual processes. Legacy and piecemeal applications that have become costly to manage over the years are being replaced by new core ERP platforms that support these digitisation activities.
At its core, digital transformation enables manufacturers to create smarter factories by automating key processes while solving the single biggest issue impacting the sector today: a lack of skilled workers.
Join Sit-Down’s director of research and production, Byron Connolly, senior executives from Epicor and your c-level finance and technology peers from the manufacturing sector for this invitation-only lunch discussion, ‘Smart factories: How automation increases efficiencies and helps solve your skills problem.’
