Sponsored By: Microsoft

In the last decade, few industries have been impacted by rapid advancements in technology quite like manufacturing. Manufacturers have been faced with an
“evolve-or-die” ultimatum as customers expect faster rates of innovation. A lower cost of entry has introduced a seemingly
endless flow of new competitors, and new technology has transformed the modern shop floor. The proliferation of smart sensors is changing R&D
and operations, providing manufacturers with massive amounts of data that presents both a great risk and a great opportunity.

As manufacturers look to manage the opportunities and challenges that technology has delivered, many are looking back to the source to help them thrive
in this new environment. With the tools available in Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Operations, manufacturers are able to accelerate product introductions, have
more agile shop floor execution, and deliver more intelligent order fulfillment. In this modern era of manufacturing, Microsoft is empowering manufacturers
to improve their speed of doing business through connected operations, driving business success today and into the future.
