Too much for a LinkedIn post so here is a very short article to help you get your head around supercharging your manufacturing. AI enhances what is already there so yes it can optimise strengths but it can’t fix your leaks. Whether you are looking at AI to help you with better planning, tighter scheduling, or more robust quality systems, you need to sort your mess out first. Have a read and by all means have a chat with Martyn King

How AI is revolutionising manufacturing businesses. (Example below.) Now AI is a complex topic and it can be hard to know how it applies to the real world. So let’s explore a use case for a manufacturing business. Utilising AI really comes down to data. Both in terms of getting better data and knowing how to use existing data to make informed decisions. This is true for all businesses but it’s especially relevant to manufacturers. Here’s why… The better your data, the more profitable your production can be. Take this example: Say you're building a car that requires lots of parts. But when the parts for that particular model aren’t available, it can cause delays. This is exactly where AI comes into play. When a machine runs out of the right parts, AI can assess stock levels and quickly adapt to start building another product instead. So essentially it speeds up decision making based on what’s happening in the moment. Now these efficiency gains are invaluable for manufacturers because: • material costs are increasing • idle machines lead to energy waste • overseas competition is getting tougher. So in order to be more competitive, it’s important to make cost savings where possible. Less downtime = increased efficiency = greater profitability. We know examples like the one above sound great, but people may have concerns about how much time it takes to introduce AI and automation into their operations. So this is what we can help with at 1101. And we can often make improvements to existing processes without needing to completely overhaul systems. Initially, we start by identifying the low hanging fruit so you can see results fast. Interested in having a chat? Send us a DM and we can set up a free consultation.

Harnessing the Power of AI Helping Manufacturers Sell More at the Right Time AI: Transforming Manufacturing—From Production to Profitability As AI reshapes industries, manufacturers are asking critical questions: How will customers discover and purchase products in an AI-driven world? And how can companies keep pace with these advancements? At Crossroads RMC, we address these challenges with our AI Readiness Assessment (AIRA). An AIRA creates a clear, actionable digital roadmap, significantly boosting efficiency, accuracy, and strategic capabilities. This assessment ensures a smooth, swift AI transition. AI Readiness Assessment targets key Operations areas: - Production Planning: AI optimizes production planning by analyzing data and forecasting demand, helping to balance workloads and minimize downtime. - Supply Chain Disruptions: AI predicts potential disruptions and suggests alternative suppliers or routes, enhancing supply chain resilience. - Quality Control: AI detects defects in real-time and predicts quality issues before they occur, leading to higher consistency and fewer recalls. Schedule a readiness assessment today! https://lnkd.in/eD26QzDu

Streamlining Operations with AI: Cost-Saving Techniques Artificial Intelligence isn't just the future - it's here, transforming businesses in the most thrilling ways. The question isn't 'if' but 'how' to weave this technology into the fabric of our work systems. Take streamlining operations for example. AI can automate mundane tasks, freeing up your teams to focus on the bigger picture: strategy, innovation, customer relations. That's not just efficiency - it's smart business. I've personally seen AI cut costs by 20-30% in operations. How? By optimizing resource allocation, reducing errors and inefficiencies, and enhancing decision-making processes. For instance, a recent project involved integrating AI into supply chain management. The result? Improved predictions, minimized late shipments and boosted customer satisfaction - all while saving a significant amount on operational expenses. No, AI isn't a magic bullet - it's a tool. And like every tool, it's all about how we wield it. So, are we ready to unlock the potential of AI and redefine our cost-saving techniques? Let's not just save – let's innovate and thrive. Ready to embark on the AI journey to financial efficiency? Let's get started.

AI is all the rage but how does it help manufacturers? While many leaders in manufacturing collect large amounts of data from machines and processes, the challenge is knowing what to do with it. Most of us (myself included) aren’t data experts, and it’s not always easy to look at a spreadsheet or a graph and instantly know the next steps. This is where AI makes a difference. We're using it to analyze the data and turn it into clear, actionable insights, allowing leaders to make smart decisions without needing to be a data guru. AI can identify bottlenecks, highlight inefficiencies, and suggest areas for improvement faster than we could on our own. It doesn’t solve everything, but it helps spot problems early and take action quickly. This is what a production facility does that runs at a high level of machine utilization. AI is establishing itself as an efficiency tool. For manufacturers, it makes interpreting their data much more efficient as well.

AI and ML are changing the way supply chains work. They make things faster and smarter. I always say that tech is a game-changer. → Cuts down on errors → Boosts efficiency → Enhances decision-making I wouldn't say it's magic either. I would say it's smart use of data. I know what it can do, and I know it can learn from patterns. If you want to see the impact, consider these 5 changes: 1. Improved Forecasting ↳ If demand is unpredictable, AI can help. ↳ When algorithms analyze data, forecasts become more accurate. 2. Enhanced Inventory Management ↳ If stock levels are hard to manage, ML can assist. ↳ When systems predict needs, inventory costs go down. 3. Optimized Transportation ↳ If delivery routes are inefficient, AI can optimize them. ↳ When routes are planned smartly, fuel costs and delivery times drop. 4. Better Supplier Relationships ↳ If supplier performance varies, ML can track it. ↳ When data shows trends, supplier management improves. 5. Increased Customer Satisfaction ↳ If customer needs are unmet, AI can predict them. ↳ When services are tailored, customer satisfaction rises. Remember: You're not limited by traditional methods. You're empowered by technology. Embrace it and continue to innovate.

Predictive Analytics in manufacturing uses #AI to tell us which path to take in order to achieve a desired outcome, even when process patterns and trends are changing. It means greater precision and accuracy, speed and increased efficiency in your operations. But, there is one caveat with #ArtificialIntelligence that throws it off its game. That is variation. There are many examples to causes of variation in #manufacturing processes, including but not limited to: - Poor product design - Poorly designed processes - Unfit operations - Unsuitable machines/equipment - Untrained operators - Variability from incoming vendor material - Lack of adequate supervision skills - Changing or inadequate environmental conditions - Inadequate maintenance of equipment - Inadequate or changing environmental conditions Every situation is different. The cause of variation on one manufacturing line isn’t going to be the same on another. How do you remove variability and improve product conformance? Thus, leading to more accurate AI data sets and predictive analytics. Read on for the answer: https://hubs.li/Q02JsjWC0 #Quality #OperationsManagement #Consultants
