SUPPLY CHAIN RESILIENCE REMAINS CRITICAL
that does not require IT support empowers you to solve the problem without having to coordinate with another team. For operations with multiple plants and a breadth of employees working on separate operations toward the same end goal, cloud adoption is critical. Each team can collect and share data with their counterparts which in turn, breaks down operational / multi-site silos and therefore, informs decisions that positively impact asset lifecycles.
Supply chain issues are still pervasive, but cloud- based solutions can be used to add resilience to future-proof against continued volatility in the marketplace. We are seeing improvements in supply chains as well as in parts availability, but still find that customers cannot get the spare parts as quickly as they need to, so they are trying to make better use of their internal stores. One benefit of a cloud solution is that you can easily aggregate information about multiple sites which allows organisations to have better visibility into parts and inventory. For example, rather than going back to a supplier for a part for plant A, you can go to plant B and take that stock. Mapping out entire supply chains end –to-end to minimise exposure to risk helps mitigate uncertainty. For maintenance and reliability teams, inventory management solutions that offer data-driven insights will improve the overall efficacy of maintenance control.
EXPERT CONSTRAINED COMPANIES WILL UTILISE SERVICES TO CLOSE THE GROWING SKILLS GAP
Whether it be the great resignation or skilled talent retiring, it is not news that the global skills shortage continues - let us call it the “new normal”. Talented people are moving around the industry or simply reassessing their work life balance and how their current business supports that. In 2023, we expect companies to take greater advantage of in-built service offerings where experts can be on hand to advise full-time staff on maintenance and reliability programmes to leap-frog the skills gap for permanent employees.
