Leading companies in the process industry have gone digital, exploring a number of key applications to digitize their entire value chain and heavily investing in new technologies. The expected benefits include double-digit efficiency gains as a result of reduced manufacturing cost and overhead, significant asset uptime gains, increased production output, and improved health and safety to only name a few.
