You and Yours - How ERP is Helping Drive Digitalisation in UK Manufacturing
The key to increasing a business’ productivity is improving efficiency. And in turn, the key to improving efficiency is better workflow visibility. If digitisation was a puzzle, then improved workflow visibility would be the first and most important piece.
