IDC estimates that the global big data analytics market revenue would’ve reached ~$274B by 2022. This would have made manufacturing as one of the top 3 industries with largest analytics growth.
Manufacturing analytics is the practice of capturing, cleansing, and analyzing machine data in order to predict their future use, prevent failures, forecast maintenance requirements, and identify areas for improvement. Manufacturing data includes all structured and unstructured information collected manually or by using software from machines and humans during every stage of production until a product is launched to the market.
Analytics for Manufacturing Processes" width="612" height="275" />
Manufacturing processes produce a large volume of data from:
This data can be collected and analytics can be applied to it for:
Demand forecasting relies heavily on historical data about supply levels, material costs, purchase trends, and customer behavior. Manufacturers can leverage analytics to:
Forecasting demands enables manufacturers to manage their inventory, purchase materials, and optimize storage capacities in a data-driven manner. Analytics also provides insights about:
Explore inventory management in more details.
Manufacturers can leverage predictive analytics to optimize the order management workflow by identifying products in demand, calculating the time required to build and ship every product, and defining the inventory needed to meet the demand for the finished product.
Explore order management in more details.
Data collected from different manufacturing machines, tools, and devices, as well as data about operations and which machines they require, can be analyzed in order to:
Implementing analytics enables manufacturers to manage risks in a data-driven manner, such that they can:
Leveraging analytics can help manufacturers understand the real price of a product based on the prices of materials, cost of operations, machines, and tools used or purchased for manufacturing. Additionally, manufacturers can leverage data about competitors, market trends, consumer behavior, and purchase history to optimize prices accordingly. Analytics can also help set dynamic prices which are based on demand, supply, competition price, and subsidiary product prices.
Analytics can provide an overall view of a manufacturing process, operation costs, as well as the number of operators and hours spent on a product. Large manufacturing firms can leverage these analyses to uncover automation or robotization opportunities which can reduce the time and cost of launching certain products
Manufacturers can leverage analytics on:
Based on historical data about the same or similar products, materials, machines, and tools used, as well as allocated employees for production, analytics can provide an estimation about the production process, when the product will be launched, which errors or pitfalls may be faced, and create a roadmap for the following procedures.
Product development teams can leverage analytics on product features, consumer behavior, and comments on online platforms, as well as competitor products, to estimate why end users buy certain products, when to launch similar products, and which features require optimization.
Some of the technologies leveraged today by manufacturers include:
RPA is a type of software capable of replicating human interactions with computers in order to automate repetitive processes. Manufacturers can leverage RPA for supply chain management and stock optimization.
AI has numerous applications in manufacturing including:
