Despite the huge benefits offered by Industry 4.0, IIoT & Digital Transformation adoption by manufacturing companies is still in its nascent stage. Manufacturing companies are finding it difficult to implement Industry 4.0 due to its complexity, multi-systems & technologies landscape and scarcity of digital talent. However, COVID is pushing the manufacturing sector to increase its focus on digital transformation.
