What was the benefit?

Manufacturing 4.0 Program

John Mee // Global Supply Planning Director at Grifols

Delighted to have earned a Digital Masters in "Manufacturing 4.0", the 4th industrial revolution, recognized in broad terms as the merge of digital and physical value systems. For reference the 1st, 2nd and 3rd industrial revolutions are referenced respectively by the advent of steam power / water power, advances in manufacturing, production and transportation systems, telecommunication and information system advances. The accreditation ex Technologie Management Gruppe (Munich) in partnership with Irish Manufacturing Research, was delivered excellently by Dr Paul Gromball. The program highlighted that products and the horizontal and vertical value chains they transfer through, coupled with leadership models that govern their design to delivery, are all open to increasing digitization and connectivity. Secondary research sources (several, hence not cited directly) indicate that there are perhaps less than 20% of industrial based companies that have digitized significant processes within their value chains to date, with this figure expected to be above 75% within 5 years. Directing and planning a 4.0 strategy for increased business growth opportunities is now a corporate agenda item.

How it works

The program is designed to be a mix of specific e-learning modules (see program outline), followed up by assignments and live sessions either in group or per company to discuss the content at hand and ensure the maximum applied individual take-away for your company specific case. The developed digital projects will then be moved to real-life company interaction .Industry specialists will join forces and contribute to the best possible outcome of the program.

Why you should join: The current Covid-19 crisis has emphasized even further the importance of not just the technical application of digital tools and methods but most importantly the necessity to develop organizations and digital strategies that are capable and resilient enough to take advantage of the chances and opportunities arising. In the program we seek to develop new technology strategies for your business and have the possibility to apply them in practice.

Capabilities/coordination problem: We know what to do and we want to do it, but we can’t get it done.

Who should join
