BUILD A DIGITAL-BASED RELATIONSHIP TO PREPARE MANUFACTURING & SUPPLY TEAMS INTO INDUSTRY 4.0

Digital transformation is not only about replacing old technologies with new ones, capturing high volumes of data, hiring an army of data scientists, or trying to copy some of the things Google or Amazon do. The essence of digital transformation is to become a data-driven organization, ensuring that key decisions, actions, and processes are strongly influenced by data-driven insights, rather than by human intuition. You will only transform when you have managed to change how people behave and how things are done in your organization. But the proper relationship is vital to the Supply Network. Take away examples from Bayer’s case study:

• Assessing our digital upskilling strategy: where we started and where we are now
• Developing new skills and bringing our CMO on board.
• The importance of the Humanized Technology and key relationship concepts useb by Bayer.
• Sharing success stories within the operations management team

Recognize that digital transformation is about the people, not only the technology!
