Manufacturing organizations worldwide have faced and overcome incredible challenges in recent years. Yet the bullwhip effect of those issues remains in 2023. The present is marked by economic uncertainty and workforce challenges, but access to manufacturing technologies \u2014 especially those powered by artificial intelligence \u2014 is opening new pathways to success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Responding to macroeconomic forces beyond their control, leaders are focused on stabilizing their supply chains, while their staffs seek greater operational efficiency to accelerate new product innovation, even as they adapt to these serious challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How will companies achieve the increased stability and speed they seek? Leaders are increasingly sourcing parts closer to home and looking for suppliers with the expertise and capability to deliver quality parts at the pace the market demands. They\u2019re investing in upskilling their people and are betting big on digital tools powered by AI to enhance their teams\u2019 capabilities and increase productivity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now in its eighth year, Fictiv\u2019s State of Manufacturing Report seeks to spotlight these trends and provide insights to help companies of all sizes be successful \u2014 in 2023 and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2023, one thing\u2019s clear: Across companies of all sizes, increasing the speed of new product innovation (49%, a jump of 11% YoY) has become much more important, especially for engineering leadership. And that means companies need higher-performing and more resilient supply chains<\/a> to keep up with the pace of innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That\u2019s why, for a second straight year, \u201cImproving manufacturing and supply chain visibility\u201d (55%) is the top business priority for the majority of leaders overall, though that\u2019s no longer the case for smaller organizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Small companies are mostly focused on improving customer experience and satisfaction (52%) and reducing operational inefficiencies (45%).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, medium-sized companies have reshuffled their priorities and are more focused on improving supply chain resilience and agility than they were in 2022. As for the biggest companies, their top priorities haven\u2019t changed in the last 12 months.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
