Gartner® Report: Use 3 Levels of Value to Manage Connected Factory Worker Initiatives

It’s no secret that manufacturing has entered a digital era, as companies increasingly seek to connect their enterprise from the front office to the shop floor. As part of this digital turn, manufacturers have also witnessed the rise of the connected factory worker—an individual who seamlessly uses manufacturing technology to enhance productivity, performance, and engagement.

An analyst report from Gartner reveals that 84% of organizations intend to invest in connected factory worker strategies in the next year. This type of investment is unprecedented, as it requires manufacturers to become human-centric, rather than just focus on product and process.

In this Gartner report, we believe/think/feel you’ll learn:

• How to effectively manage connected factory worker initiatives and avoid being trapped under a low benefits ceiling
• The three levels of value to define and chart a successful course for implementing connected worker strategies
• Frameworks for deriving both short- and long-term value from connected worker initiatives
