Data-Driven Manufacturing (DDM) is a strategic approach that leverages vast amounts of real-time data from shop floors, supply chains, and assets (sensors, machines) to guide operational decisions, rather than relying solely on intuition. It forms a key pillar of Industry 4.0.

The core value of DDM is transforming raw information into actionable intelligence to achieve tangible benefits.

DDM includes enabling predictive maintenance to eliminate unplanned downtime, optimizing complex production processes, enhancing quality control by identifying defects instantly, and attaining high operational efficiency and cost reduction across the value chain.
