It contributes to overall corporate objectives and helps with the delivery of some other enablers. The same logic applies to reliable manufacturing and technological resilience . Manufacturing flexibility is important because it helps a corporation cope with change. And these days, companies are subjected to numerous and continuous changes. This particular enabler is sometimes referred to as manufacturing agility, which very well describes a need not only to be flexible, but also to adapt quickly to newly emerged circumstances.
Standardization is another enabler used to meet business objectives.
The more standard your solutions, systems, and procedures, the easier it is to go about your business. As I said, the contemporary corporate world is already complex enough, the last thing you want is a clever proprietary solution that will further complicate matters. Last but not least is people empowerment . The knowledge of how to produce the value and convert products into profits is still with the people. No matter how much we automate our businesses and processes, people are still the ones who, if appropriately stimulated and empowered, will deliver results beyond expectations.
