Continuous Improvement is Not Digital Transformation
Here’s Why You Need Both!
The manufacturing industry is at a pivotal moment, where the ability to digitally transform is the key to success. However, many companies mistakenly believe that incremental improvements leveraging new technologies equate to a form of Digital Transformation. While these improvements may have value, they are not truly transformative.
Continuous Improvement and Digital Transformation are similar yet distinct concepts. Continuous Improvement focuses on optimizing existing processes and systems to achieve incremental gains. Digital Transformation leverages digital technologies such as artificial intelligence, machine learning and process automation to drive efficiency, innovation and growth.
While Continuous Improvement and Digital Transformation are distinct concepts, they are not mutually exclusive. In fact, they complement each other and can bring about even greater manufacturing success when implemented together.
