Production digitization is not just an option. Digitization is a necessity for any company that wants to compete in the market. Competition never sleeps – they optimize, accelerate, and improve their processes. By delaying the decision to digitize your production, you incur losses. What kind?

Low operational efficiency
Without digitization, you waste time on manual, time-consuming processes such as:
- Documentation filling: Traditional methods of data collection and processing are inefficient and prone to errors.
- Information searching: Employees must spend valuable time looking for documents and instructions, which reduces their productivity.
Increased risk of errors
Manual processes are more prone to errors that can lead to:
- Poor product quality: Reporting errors and lack of current data affect the quality of final products.
- Supervision problems: Lack of ongoing monitoring makes it difficult to identify and solve production problems.
Higher operational costs
Process inefficiency directly translates into higher costs:
- Financial losses: According to our research, the annual cost of inefficiency in a company employing 500 workers amounts to 4,020,000 PLN. Such losses result from wasting time and resources.
- Lack of savings: Companies that don’t invest in modern technologies cannot benefit from savings resulting from process automation.
Limited competitiveness
Companies that don’t implement modern technologies fall behind their competition:
- Slower response to market changes: Digitization enables quick adaptation to changing market conditions and better use of available data for decision-making.
- Lack of innovation: Without digitization, companies struggle to implement innovative solutions that could improve their products and services.
Lower quality of resource management
Lack of digitization makes it difficult to effectively manage both people and machines:
- Inventory management problems: Difficulties in tracking material consumption and spare parts lead to excessive inventory or shortages at crucial moments.
- Planning and scheduling difficulties: Without proper digital tools, production planning is less precise, resulting in unnecessary downtime and delays.
Summary
Companies that don’t opt for digitization lose on many fronts – from lower operational efficiency, through higher costs, to limited competitiveness and resource management problems. Investment in digitization is key to increasing efficiency, reducing costs, and improving product quality, as well as gaining a competitive advantage in the market.
