Industry 4.0
Industry 4.0 can feel overwhelming for mid-size manufacturers. The secret is staging: each phase must pay for itself before the next begins.
Phase one is connectivity — get machines onto a network and visualize live states. Phase two is intelligence — OEE analytics and predictive maintenance. Phase three is integration — bridging shop floor to ERP for closed-loop planning.
This staged approach de-risks the journey and builds internal buy-in as each phase demonstrates value.
IPASS partners with manufacturers across this roadmap, from the first gateway to a fully integrated smart factory.
