Business process automation solutions for manufacturing
Advances in technology changed manufacturing industry. But automation should go beyond industrial machinery if a company wants to streamline operations, improve quality of their products and build competitive advantage.
If your ERP system is overloaded with processes that shouldn’t be there, and becomes less flexible, more expensive and increasingly harder to use by the end users – you should definitely consider extending it with a low-code platform.
Automate manufacturing processes to increase employee productivity, improve supply chain management, optimize new product development cycle, ensure safety at production facilities, and improve quality maintenance.
Why a low-code platform is an ideal addition to your ERP system?
Many enterprises treat their ERP system as the backbone of company’s processes. Well, it’s true: those platforms do a great job supporting the core processes – especially those which are legally required or regulated by the law. Nevertheless, these are not all the processes that keep a company running and definitely not the processes that make the business run better than its competition.
This white paper reveals why ERP systems are not enough to drive innovation in your business, and why it is better to digitalize processes using a dedicated low-code platform.

Explore manufacturing processes
that greatly benefit from automation
A study by Deloitte and The Manufacturing Institute found that 2.4 million manufacturing jobs in US could go unfilled by 2028. The shortage of skilled labor is just one of the challenges that the manufacturing industry will have to face in the upcoming years, followed by navigating changing legislation, and continuous improvement in efficiency, visibility and agility in the supply chain.
With a single low-code platform, manufacturing companies can address all of those needs. Modern, future-proof business applications allow to automate repetitive tasks, streamline project management, and effectively implement new procedures when laws, policies or business needs change.
