What is Industry X.0?

When all the consulting companies also refer to the general transformation that's happening on the operational side as Industry X.0. It used to be known as Industry Forward.0 But as time passes, it continues to change and is now known as Industry X.0

What that really means is the ability for all the factories and sites to reorganize themselves. Think of a discrete manufacturing industry where the demand is very, very volatile. What they manufacture today will not be what they manufacture tomorrow. The demand patterns change quite rapidly. The realignment of all of that is Industry X.0.

Industry X.0 has led to the need to have a very strong understanding of changing the product lines to meet the demand – aligning the product lines to the demand quickly.

Industry X.0 and Fusion

Fusion is a fantastic solution because it is the single source. Even if the systems are distributed, Fusion can still be the single sourcing agent to bring the data into the cloud. 

There is a voluminous need for data in the cloud to be able to do things like: Supply Chain Management, Demand Management, and Aligning Demand to Supply. These functions are a part of the domain of Industry X.0. This is where Fusion comes into play. Fusion is a fantastic single-source solution to solve that problem for our clients.
