The Today in Manufacturing Podcast is brought to you by the editors of Manufacturing.net and Industrial Equipment News (IEN). This episode is brought to you by Siemens. Small and medium-sized manufacturers encounter the same industry-wide pressures as large manufacturers: rising costs, labor shortages, and growing operational complexity. But conventional digital transformation programs are often out of reach for smaller manufacturers due to budget, time, and skills constraints. This paper from ARC Advisory Group, "How Siemens Is Positioning Xcelerator for Small-Medium Manufacturers," outlines a more practical way for these manufacturers to do more with less and see results faster.
