Automation has changed the course of data entry mechanisms in the manufacturing industry. Modern technology tools and techniques have brought a whole world of revolution, providing extensive support to the manufacturing sector in their daily needs of recording entries and building data sets.
Automation offers the ability to streamline process workflows and create an error-free and user-friendly database. Manufacturers rely on automation to drive accuracy, precision, and process enhancements while maximizing operational efficiency. Real-time data helps manufacturers analyze lead times while providing precise and timely estimates.
The manufacturing process requires a lot of effort from skilled labor. However, back-office activities such as tasks related to massive data entry processes are automated to enhance smooth operations. Many tasks benefit from being automated, such as calculating and distributing KPI reports, integrating ERP with accounting software, self-serve supplier portals, delivering event-driven information on stock levels to analyze its impact on production techniques, and notifying other departments about the manufacturing updates. Moreover, integrating ERP with accounting software is now being managed hassle-free with automation tools and techniques.
Here is a brief overview of some of the leading tools that drive automation in data entry processes to generate process optimization in the manufacturing industry
Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)
Technological enhancements such as IIoT support the creation of efficient datasets. Advanced Predictive analysis helps the supply chain look for trends that may impact production or cause disruptions in the supply chain management. Business Managers can keep a close watch on the logistics and supply chain management by having access to real-time data related to inventory levels, tracking shipments, and product availability statistics.
According to MHI’s 2022 Industry Report with Deloitte, the use of advanced predictive analytics has reached close to 25%. IIoT in manufacturing holds excellent potential for quality control, sustainable and green practices, supply chain traceability, and overall supply chain efficiency. Predictive maintenance, improved field service, asset tracking, facility management, and enhanced customer satisfaction are the significant benefits of IIoT.
Artificial Intelligence (AI)
Manufacturing companies use AI algorithms to optimize supply chain management that helps companies anticipate market changes. By identifying patterns such as linking location, consumer behavior, political status, weather patterns, and socioeconomic and macroeconomic factors, the AI algorithms help project estimations relating to market demands.
Robotic Process Automation (RPA)
RPA is one of the most essential tools used by manufacturers. Daily tasks such as account receivable and payable, quoting and invoicing suppliers, and general ledger operations can benefit immensely from RPA. RPA supports manufacturing companies in customizing billing and production-related activities and minimizes errors. According to a London School of Economics study, robotic technologies could potentially return as much as 600% to 800% ROI.
